Definition (Hebrew)

בְּהַשְׁאָלָה: זְמַנִּי עֲלֵי אֲדָמוֹת. כִּנּוּי לְאַפְסוּת אוֹ זְמַנִּיּוּת חַיֵּי הָאָדָם הַקְּצָרִים.

("אִלּוּ לִפְנֵי מֶלֶךְ בָּשָׂר וָדָם הָיוּ מוֹלִיכִים אוֹתִי, שֶׁהַיּוֹם כָּאן וּמָחָר בַּקֶּבֶר,...וְעַכְשָׁו שֶׁמּוֹלִיכִין אוֹתִי לִפְנֵי מֶלֶךְ מַלְכֵי הַמְּלָכִים...וְלֹא אֶבְכֶּה?"- בְּרָכוֹת כֹּחַ ע"ב)
