There was an educator in theidic world of bells, the bell zerba whose name is sakar dove roak. When an educator went into the chamber of the bellzerba and he asked a question according to the legal law, you're not allowed to spank your student in class even for educational purposes. And this person asked the belba, what if it's necessary? What if it's necessary to give a child fres? He says, "I know not from anger, not because I'm an impulsive, a selfish, angry, angry man. That I know is wrong. If it's for educational purposes, the kid needs to learn a lesson." This is what he answered. See what Mosher Rabenu wrote in the Tory. Then let's see how Unkus translates it. And then let's see how Rashi translates. Context is a very perplexing and fascinating story. The story of Miriam's criticism of her baby brother, Mosher Raben. Out of the blue, suddenly Miriam and Aaron are having a conversation about baby brother Mosha who's not a baby anymore. He has become the great prophet of the Jewish people. But there is a conversation that she has with her brother Aaron about Mosha's marriage. The only thing it says she said is Mosher Rabenu is not the only prophet. We have also heard God speak. At the end, Hashem reveals himself and Hashem starts giving them a lecture about who Mosher Rabenu is. How can one not have awe and reverence when speaking about Mosha Raben? And then Miriam becomes a leper. She's suddenly white like snow. She has white patches like snow. So Mosha cries out to Hashem, "Oh God, please heal her. Heal my sister." Hashem tells Mosha, "If her father would have spat in her face, would she not feel shame for seven days at least?" And the tiger says next he says if her father would have rebuked her she would have felt embarrassed for seven days. Interesting. That's not what the tyra says. Tyra says if her father would have spit rashi is a thousand years later. Which translation is he going to use? If her father would have shown her a somber face she would have been embarrassed for 7 days. And the bells are said to was written 3,338 years ago said spit. Tigamunulus a thousand years later says rebuked. Rashi a thousand years later says show her a sour face. And now we live a thousand years after Rashi.
