("And they blessed Rebekah and said to her, ‘Our sister, you are to become thousands of myriads, and may your offspring possess the gate of their enemies’” – Genesis 24:60; and: “King Agrippa stood and read, and they praised him. When he reached the verse ‘You may not set a foreigner over you,’ his eyes filled with tears. They said to him, ‘Do not fear, Agrippa, you are our brother, you are our brother’” – Sotah 41a)

Definition (Hebrew)

בְּהַשְׁאָלָה: אַתָּה חֵלֶק מֵאִתָּנוּ וּכְמוֹ בָּשָׂר מִבְּשָׂרֵנוּ.

("וַיְבָרֲכוּ אֶת רִבְקָה וַיֹּאמְרוּ לָהּ אֲחֹתֵנוּ אַתְּ הֲיִי לְאַלְפֵי רְבָבָה וְיִירַשׁ זַרְעֵךְ אֵת שַׁעַר שֹׂנְאָיו" - בְּרֵאשִׁית כַּד ס, וְכֵן: "אגריפס הַמֶּלֶךְ עָמַד וְקַבָּל וְקָרָא עוֹמֵד, ושבחוהו חֲכָמִים, וּכְשֶׁהִגִּיעַ לְלֹא תּוּכַל לָתֵת עָלֶיךָ אִישׁ נָכְרִי (דְּבָרִים יז), זָלְגוּ עֵינָיו דְּמָעוֹת, אָמְרוּ לוֹ: אַל תתירא, אגריפס, אַחֵינוּ אַתָּה, אַחֵינוּ אַתָּה" - סוטה מָא ע"א)
