Entry 809 • Seder Tannaim v'Amoraim

Rabbi Bruka the Seer [(and Elijah was often present)] was standing in the marketplace of the house of the leper. Elijah came and passed by there, a keeper of the prison wearing black shoes and without tzitzit, and he was also a jester. Elijah said to him, "These are three sons of the World to Come" [(Taanit 22a)]. And in the chapter of the one who carries, Bruka explained: "There a wise man."
