המעט. הדבר קל כי העליתנו מארץ זבת חלב ודבש כי מצרים בנגב ארץ ישראל והבא ממצרים לארץ כנען באמת הוא עולה: IS IT A SMALL THING. Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey?Scripture reads, brought us up, because Egypt is south of the Land of Israel, and one who comes from Egypt to the land of Canaan is in truth going up.40Here, brought us up is to be taken literally.
כי תשתרר עלינו. העליתנו ממצרים כדי שתשתרר עלינו: BUT THOU MUST NEEDS MAKE THYSELF ALSO A PRINCE OVER US. You brought us out of Egypt in order to make yourself a prince over us.
גם השתרר. גם שררות רבות אתה ואחיך: MUST NEEDS MAKE THYSELF A PRINCE OVER US. You and your brother also seek additional positions of power over us.41Our clause reads, ki tistarer alenu gam histarer (but thou must needs make thyself also a prince over us). The latter literally reads: That you want to rule over us, also to rule. I.E. interprets this as follows: that you want to rule over us, and you also want additional rulership.
