Translation:
But when the Prophet says, "he will strike the earth with the word of his mouth," he is not speaking about the earth, but about sins.[1] As the [saying] "and the whole earth became one lip" [is] about sins.[2] And Abraham disparaging himself says, "but I am earth and dust."[3] And elsewhere: "in his life his entrails are set at naught;"[4] meaning his stomach.
