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.
