# lien

noun

«lien» in the English dictionary: in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## In Jewish tradition

Interpretation: The story tells that Ben Sira wanted to study Sefer Yetzirah and a heavenly voice said he could not do it alone, so a companion joined him. Tradition reads this as meaning that deep mysteries are best studied with a partner.

### Meaning

A mistaken printing of a name or word in an old scanned book; here it stands for "Rabbi" or a name such as "Ben" before Sira. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/L/lien/#m1)
