Core Text of Chazal

Core Text — Yerushalmi Berachos 6:1
רַבִּי תַּנְחוּמָא וְרַבִּי אַבָּא בַּר כָּהֲנָא בְּשֵׁם רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר: כְּתִיב ״וְאֶתְּנָה לְךָ אֶת לֻחוֹת הָאֶבֶן וְהַתּוֹרָה וְהַמִּצְוָה״. הִקִּישׁ תּוֹרָה לְמִצְוֹת: מַה תּוֹרָה טְעוּנָה בְּרָכָה, אַף מִצְוֹת טְעוּנוֹת בְּרָכָה.

English: Rabbi Tanchuma and Rabbi Abba bar Kahana, in the name of Rabbi Elazar, derive that commandments require blessings: “And I will give you the tablets of stone, the Torah and the commandment.” The Torah is linked with the commandments: just as Torah requires a blessing, so commandments require blessings.

On the daf / in context: The Core Text above is the primary Chazal passage to which Torah Temimah points for this derashah.
