"...May the light of the Moon (הַלְּבָנָה ha-levanah, lit. the "white one") be like the light of the Sun (הַחַמָּה ha-ḥamah, lit. the “hot one”) and like the light of the primaeval seven days of creation, like it was before she was diminished, as it says “And Elohim formed the two great lights” (Genesis 1:16)." —from the Ḳiddush Levanah (after the story related by Rebbi Shimon ben Pazi in Chullin 60b.2-4)
