Hebrew · Midrash Rabbah (Hebrew, Torat Emet)
כִּי בַהֶבֶל בָּא, בְּלֹא נֵר וּבְלֹא מֶרְחָץ. אֶלָּא בְּלֹא תוֹרָה וּבְלֹא מַעֲשִׂים טוֹבִים.
English · The Sefaria Midrash Rabbah (2022)
“For he comes in vanity, and departs in darkness, and in darkness his name is covered” (Ecclesiastes 6:4). “For he comes in vanity, [and departs in darkness]” – is he without a lamp and without bathing? Rather, he is without Torah and without good deeds.
