Interpreting , a Midrash taught that (as Mishnah Shabbat 16:1 rules, if one's house is burning on the Sabbath) one is permitted to save the case of the Torah along with the Torah itself, and one is permitted to save the Tefillin bag along with the Tefillin. This teaches that the righteous are fortunate, and so are those who cleave to them. Similarly, says, "God remembered Noah, and all beasts, and all the animals that were with him in the Ark." And so too, in , "God remembered Abraham and sent out Lot."
