“The light is sweet, and it is good for the eyes to behold the sun” (Ecclesiastes 11:7). “The light is sweet, and it is good for the eyes” – the light of Torah is sweet and good for the eyes. Happy is he whose learning illuminates for him like the sun. Rabbi Aḥa says: The light of the World to Come is sweet. Happy is he who will merit to see that light, as it is stated: “The light of the moon will be like the light of the sun…” (Isaiah 30:26).
