Parashas Eikev · Passuk 11:21
to the end that you and your children may endure, in the land that GOD swore to your fathersifathers See note at 1.35. to assign to them, as long as there is a heaven over the earth.
Torah Temimah points to Kiddushin 31a.
TT lemma: למען ירבו ימיכם (unit 2 of 9).
English: “So that your days may be multiplied.” Women are obligated in mezuzah. One might compare mezuzah to Torah study; that cannot be, for it is written “so that your days may be multiplied.” Do men need life but women do not?
Derash on the verse (Bavli sugya) — not a formal named middah of the 13
The Gemara uses this passuk in a sugya (proof, illustration, or dispute). Named as one of R' Yishmael’s 13 or R' Eliezer’s 32 only when that move is explicit.
The blessing of duration extends explicitly to the children’s days.
