**זָרַח בַּחֹשֶׁךְ אוֹר.** כְּמוֹ הִזְרִיחַ, וּמִדְרָשׁוֹ: הוּא עַצְמוֹ כִּבְיָכוֹל נַעֲשָׂה לָהֶם אוֹר, כְּמוֹ ״ה׳ אוֹרִי וְיִשְׁעִי״ (תהלים כז:א):

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**He shone a light in the darkness** Heb. זרח [the “kal” conjugation], like הזריח, [the “hiph’il” or causative conjugation]. Its midrashic interpretation is that He Himself, so to speak, becomes a light for them, as (above 27:1): “The Lord is my light and my salvation.”

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**Good is the man who is gracious, etc.** who is gracious to the poor and lends [to] them, and is not strict, saying, “I cannot afford it,” but [instead] his things, which he needs for himself, in food, drink, and clothing,

**רָשָׁע יִרְאֶה וְכָעָס.** לְשׁוֹן פֹּעַל כְּמוֹ וַיִּכְעַס, לְפִיכָךְ נָקוּד חֶצְיוֹ קָמַץ וְחֶצְיוֹ פַּתַּח וְטַעֲמוֹ לְמַטָּה:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**A wicked man will see and become angry** Heb. וכעס, an expression of a verb in the past tense, equivalent to ויכעס [i.e., the “vav” converts the past tense to the future]. Therefore, it is vowelized half with a “kamatz” and half with a “pattah,” and the accent is at the end of the word.
