And welcome everyone to a special
edition of all para on paras the raana
on paras. Well this week it's a very
short week. So at least let's take
advantage of the time that we have in
prep preparation for the longest par of
the year. It's brought in that the
reason why paras is in the aftermath of
is after
gives us the greatest bounty the
greatest of in the guise of the longest
para of the week. So I want to share
with you a brief Raman this time on PK
B. The Raman is trying to explain why
the subject of the appears in the
beginning of safer midbar. The brings
the carbon.
One would think it should appear in
paras
talks about carbon.
But why is the subject of here in the
beginning of so says in middle of B on
par says
the meal offering of the is not
mentioned with the other meal offerings
in
it's a jealousy
but it's not a of atonement. Now the
Ramban
explains what does it mean that it's a
min
says it's a punishment other brought to
appease Hashem it's brought this is
brought as
there the Pik says
and the Raman offers two explanations on
what does it mean
first brings the explanation this is an
explanation Why there's no oil? There's
no in this ma because it's not a mah of
appeasement. It's a min of punishment.
Secondly, the Raman says that the words
is explaining why she doesn't bring this
carbon from her assets, but rather the
husband does. And the rationale is
because this is actually a ma as a that
the husband
is praying that should she be guilty may
the almighty take up his vengeance and
punish her in a fury and therefore it's
not appropriate that she should supply
this carbon because it's coming to
potentially bring about her downfall.
Wellan therefore says that this is
fundamentally different than other
it's not
um like other and therefore it appears
after.
So the carbon min is brought here in
midbar and once it talks about the
carbon mah the talks about the subject
of the furthermore the concept of sa is
very relevant to the beginning of bidbar
where the Jewish people were accounted
patrineal
it was the determining factor of the
count of the Jewish people was based on
their father's house well this was
establishing the purity of lineage of
the Jewish people however the Torah is
now saying if there's an episode of aa
where a woman is suspected of
infidelity, we cannot be certain that
her husband is the father. We have to be
suspicious that a different husband is
the father. And if we don't have this
procedure,
potentially she'll continue in her
unfaithful ways. And then the children
will have to be presumed nam. You see,
if a woman is found guilty of
infidelity, that doesn't mean the
children born before are considered nam.
We have to assume that they came from
the husband. But nevertheless, we do
have to be suspicious that without this
procedure, in all likelihood, she'll
continue her promiscuous ways. says
since the Jewish people are
are given a lineage based on their
fathers,
it gives the procedure of the law to
know
the are the descendants of
the husband of the mother.
when suspicion comes in the heart of a
man about his wife.
So now that it speaks about the subject
of the of the saita, it will now discuss
the subject of the nazir because the
nazer also brings a slew of carbon and
it belongs here in the beginning of the
midbar after it speaks about the carbon
of the it also speaks about the carbon
of the nazer.
It completes the subject of carbon
speaking about the
Who comes?
Here's another reason because after the
Mishkan was erected
and the contaminated
impure people were separated from the
Mishkan
who will be devoted to stand not in the
proper but at the
to be on call to be dedicated and
devoted to the constant and all day
service of Hashem.
They took from their youth linazerim
uh a nozzer uh people who refrained from
wine. And what did do someone who
separated from the pleasures of this
world?
Who they would congregate in the
entrance of
to stand before God said to serve him to
bless him. In other words, now that the
Mishkan was erected, now that we have
the construction and the service and the
temple going and the Mishkan going, now
we need to know so who's going to be
spending time in the Pay. So in the
beginning of it talks about the Nazirim
who were devoted and dedicated to be on
call all day every day for the service
of Hashem. Furthermore, Cesar Ramban the
Nazerite the Nazerite
was not only a male but there was
the para of Nazerus begins is
a woman who makes regarding Nazerus
is the opposite of the so once it talks
about the who conducted herself in a
lowly debaseed manner it talks about the
opposite of the namely a female nazar.
Therefore, in the subject of Nazeros, it
speaks about a man or a woman who takes
the vow of Nazeros. And then the Ramban
quotes the famous and as well as these
other words of Rashi.
Why the justosition of the
anyone who sees the in her state of
degradation
will make a vow to refrain from wine.
What does wine have to do with the sight
of the
fluidness? wine, the product of the
grape takes away the heart. And
therefore,
since it captures the heart, therefore,
one who sees the sait and perhaps his
passions are flaring, he needs to make
proper precautions to keep away from
those things that could lead to that
type of behavior. And then the Ramadan
says
growing the hair long
is the opposite of what sometimes young
men do. They curl their hair. But when
the hair just grows long in an state,
the opposite of the young
that curl the hair of their heads to
beautify themselves, the
growing the hair long engenders a worry
and that is somewhat of a safeguard to
keep a person away from sin.
Therefore, he is holy
and his state of holiness is comparable
to a he has to guard himself from
he is like the that serves his god. So
to summarize the subject of sa is
mentioned here because it's not a
regular ma and therefore not mentioned
in vayikra but it's mentioned here once
the mka is mentioned the subject of sa
is mentioned followed by
um the subject of the nausea the ramban
said so also is sort of a safeguard to
maintain the purity of the patrolineal
descent and the nausea is mentioned here
because now that the mishkun was erected
so the nerum are devoted to to stand and
to congregate.
Furthermore, the nazerus is the opposite
of the and even a woman could become a
nazer and that is the positioning of the
subject of at this particular juncture.
Wishing everyone a wonderful shabasa.
May the shabas in the immediate
aftermath of satra solidify our
wonderful yamt of kabal satra. Looking
forward to sharing with you in the
upcoming weeks.
