Um perhaps the most uh famous para in parasisa is the story of the the unfortunate story of the ael when shabu's up in harina getting the tyra tells him like go down from the mountain because your people have go ahead and they've created a anora or a semi of a desor a mas So is aware of this and he starts coming down the mountain with the says sees the golden calf and he sees the people dancing around them. car sees the sight, he takes the lucas and he throws them down and he breaks them. What's interesting about this PK is that the PK seems to stress that what Menu saw over here was not on the Ael but he saw he saw them dancing around the Ale that when this par is repeated in sorum which is the which means I saw this and I broke the comments. But comes When I saw you dancing and being happy in front of the eagle, making a simplest terror out of it, I could not hold it in anymore. and I broke the lus. So this Ramban again is seeming to indicate that it wasn't only the act of the ael the built making of the golden calf but it was the fact that they danced. Now that would seem to us to be insignificant. I mean listen you're dealing over here with a zara is one of the three cardinal sins. So that should be enough for a person to go ahead and ra to get angry and to and to break the luas. But yet it was the c the straw that broke the camel's back was um why is that? So the great magic quotes in the name of Rome Epstein the great that uh what the is trying to tell us over here is that basically usually uh you know chuva helps almost for everything even if I were to zara but in order for a person to do chuva, he has to realize he did something wrong. And if a person does not realize that what I did is wrong, then chuva can't begin. Chuva can't help. The first step of chuva is I did something wrong. If you don't think that you did something wrong, then chua can't begin. And this is what the puzzle refers to in savory. I'm I'm I'm guilty. I'm I'm innocent. do anything wrong. When Claus Israel did the AGO, made the AO, one can make the case that it was a mistake. They were desperate. They thought MRenu was dead. Who's going to go ahead and lead us? We're going to die in the midbar. They were desperate. So, let's try this. It was a moment of confusion, of passion, of of utterly yush and desperation and the people perhaps realized that uh that they're wrong. They did something wrong. It is after all of our desira. But when they started dancing around it and rather than dancing with a say for terror like on simple that meenu decided as the Ramban explains he could not take that because at that point they were from Chuva they were far away from Chuva because they did not realize the gravity of their they think they were going ahead and doing a mitzvah dancing with the eagle and that's why said the only thing that can help at this is to break the lucas because to go ahead and say okay you know what I'll put away the lucas I won't give it to them I'll give them a smoo I'll ball them out and then they'll do chuva at this point at least they were beyond that and therefore the only thing that mishenu would help was to break the lucas and to go ahead and to to demonstrate to them how far they had gone and therefore they were when a person is very hard for him to do chuva.
