on whom doth not his light arise? it is asked , who is he that cometh,"Mlwe yab lkm, "of all that come into the world"; and says, the sun hath not lightened me by day, nor hath the moon lightened me by night!

thou enlightenest those above, and those below, and "all that come into the world".''Again, God is introduced thus speaking :"I am the God, Mlwe yab lkl, "of all that come into the world"; and I have not united my name, but to the people of Israel.'

'Once more ,"Moses, our master, from the mouth of power, (i.e. God; see Mt 26:64.) commanded to oblige, Mlweh yab lk ta, "all that come into the world", to receive the commandments which were commanded the sons of Noah.'
