Commentary for Avodah Zarah 129:5
אמר רב פפי איבעי ליה למימרא ליה מהאי קרא (תהלים מה, י) בנות מלכים ביקרותיך נצבה שגל לימינך בכתם אופיר אמר ר"נ בר יצחק איבעי ליה למימרא ליה מהכא (ישעיהו סד, ג) עין לא ראתה אלהים זולתך יעשה למחכה לו:
Papi said: [Rava] should have answered him by the following verse, “Kings’ daughters are among your favorites; at your right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir” (Psalms 45:10). Nahman b. Yitzchak said: [Rava] should have answered him by quoting the verse, “No eye has seen it, God, aside from You, Who will do for those who await Him” (Isaiah 64:3).
Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah
Papi cites a verse that shows that in the world to come royalty will serve the Jews. R. Nahman b. Yitzchak says that the people of Israel’s reward will be so great in the world to come that it cannot even be described.
