1And to Levi he said… (Deuteronomy 33:8)That is, “to Levi” – to one who is attached to G‑d,¹,” which means “to accompany” or “to be joined with,” as in the verse: “And she conceived again, and bore a son; and said: ‘Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have born him three sons.’ Therefore his name was called Levi” (Genesis 29:34). “He said” – the Holy One Himself says Torah, and he does not need to overly exert himself [when studying].Likutim Yikarim, p. 32a
