Behar-Bechukosai 5786

We're now finishing safer by Yiqua. Chazak, chazak, venisrazek. So, the last several pasukim of parshas Bechukotai in which we finish safer by Yiqua, there are two interesting halachas. Im kol yigal ish mimmasro chamishi sayo siflav. If you donated something to the Beis Hamikdash that can be redeemed, the halacha is you're allowed to redeem it, but you have to have 20 have to add 20%. Im kol yigal ish mimmasro chamishi so, 1/5 yishiflav. And then the the second to last pasuk is, lo yivachef ben tevel ra velo yumevanu. Im homer yumevanu vahaya hu usmuraso yeha kodesh lo yigael. This halacha called temura, which is in fact in the time of sechta in shas, instead of kodshim. And the basics of the halacha of temura is that if you go ahead and you donate a you want to bring a korban to the to the Beis Hamikdash, and you pick this cow, so then you you see another cow for whatever reason, and you want to switch it. Okay, listen. Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and bring this korban, I'm going to bring this cow or this sheep or whatever it may be. Lo yivachef ben tevel ra velo yumevanu. Don't say, "Well, this is a better one, I switch it with that." No. Im homer yumevanu and if you go ahead and say, "Okay, zeh kach zeh, this is in place of that. Guess what? All y'all who who smart site the Akita's. You can't do that. And both of the animals both of the cows or both of the lambs or both of the goats, they're both Akita's. They have to be brought under this bear. A lot of tomorrow. And then the final of every by is a lot of races as my show Israel by Sinai. Has that has that when is it? So the past this is that this last a lot of races as my show Israel. This is referring to all the way by the way by the way is is jam-packed with different or bonus other races or all etc. etc. This is a safer full of races. So the races the flavor you know goes ahead and synopsize a lot of races as my show Israel as my show by Sinai. These are the races of gave me a better. That's the past this of the races as the last this is a summation of the entire safer by equal. The safer the safer you all could you hold up. Has a different take. No, this is not referring to the entirety of equal. All the races is referring to these last two chicken. The races that if you go ahead and you redeem something you have to go ahead and pay a 20% more. And if you try to go ahead and switch the core bonus they won't both wind up close coders. The safer you all could you hold up says that a lot of races is referring to these specific two Mitzvos. Cuz this is what Torah is all about. These two Mitzvos adding 20% to a redemption and if you try to switch Behemos, both of Behemos are Kadosh, that is the essence of the Torah. Ailah Mitzvos This synopsizes the entire Torah. Why is that? So, the answer to that lies in a Rambam at the very end of Hilchos Temurah. It is worthwhile for you to go ahead and to read this Rambam. Says the Rambam Afa Pishcha Kol Hukei Torah Gezeiros Heim even though ultimately everything is a Gezeirah Hakadosh this is what God said and we have to do whether we understand or not Royally explained and Bahen Uchol Mashah She'Yochlin Leitam Tein Leitam. Yes ultimately some things we can't understand why. Why Shatnez Assur? Why is Chazer Assur? Why is it that an animal has to be Shechted from the front, can't not from the back? We don't know a lot of these things. But where you can figure it out then you can try to explain it. Hare Omru Chachamim Hareishonim She'Melech Heivin Roiv Hatam Kol Hukei Torah. Melech in fact did understand it. He royally says the Rambam She'Zeih Sham Hakadosh Baruch Hu Shamayim She'Yikadeish The The reason for the Mitzvah of Temurah that both animals remain holy Kein Shomer Es Ve'Im Magdish Yagil Es Behemoso years to come Isha Kessler and why we have to go ahead and add 20% if we redeem something. You're the tire cuz the Torah understands human beings. Cuz people like money. And people like to make money and collect money and have money. And the realm continues and people are very stingy when it comes to their money. Because if you go ahead and you donate something, hey, you know, maybe maybe I shouldn't have done this. And therefore I want to redeem it, says the Torah. You want to redeem it, you'll redeem it for less than it is. No. You have to have 20%. And if you want to add an add donated a carbon Shamai Yasha boy, maybe I'll have second thoughts. Buyer's remorse. Guess what? You'll do a switcheroo, but the second animal ain't going to be as good as the first animal. And again, they say, "Okay, you can switch from good to bad, but not from bad to good. Guess what? You'll always say, "No, this is better." The people no switching. The constant he cliff and there's a punishment. The whole listen to this. The whole of the warm clay lock of his heat straight. Sucking tighter. This is all what Torah is about. To improve us as human beings. And most of the Torah That's why God gave us a Torah. To make us into better people. More perfect human beings. So that you should be honest. That's why there's a myth of Torah. Because the Torah knows how people are. And the whole purpose of Torah is to improve us. If we're stingy, to go out and make us generous. And if we're too generous, you know how to limit ourselves. And that's all what Torah is about. To improve the human condition, to improve human beings. And that's why the holy Torah says that the person a lot of myths is referring to these two specific myths. Cuz these are examples of how the Torah goes ahead, understands human beings, understands their their their Torah and understands their their stinginess sometimes. And therefore that's why the Torah is doing this over here. And that's the side of call our Torah cooler.
