PARSHAS MASSEI: DEFINING THE BORDERS OF ERETZ YISROEL – FOR WHAT PURPOSE?

This week's para matis mas two paras together. Interesting really we could have put hukas bollock together. We skipped over some years hookas bolocas together. We skipped over parasol to put together the paras matas mas. We actually spoke about it last week in paras when we spoke about we wanted pinas to be in the three weeks for the carbon and if you put paras together then pinas is going to be before the three weeks last week though it's interesting that he actually says that you put together and not like what we do mis cuz those parachets are shorter. But why taka? Why taka do we skip over hookas bollock that this year was separate even though there are parishes that sometimes go together and we put together the parishes matas mas. So the Boss says that all of these paras and Dvarim the weeks that we lain the parishes that we lain during the three weeks speak about we're in the three weeks we're actually tomorrow going into the nine days that were abd that we were kicked out of you look in the kinus of tishov It speaks about how is yearning to go back. We want to lame the paras that speak about speaks about paras this week's par speaks speaks about the borders of par speaks about we want the lane and speak about our role to have a his to remind us where we're heading, what we're missing, where we want to go. We should be this year and should be a Yam on the note of ro in this week's para like we mentioned paras speaks about the gouler ro the borders of ro yeah rashi Rashi's yard site is today Thomas the Rebi of Clius everybody every age you learn kish you learn n you learn gammor the pirish rashi rashi was nif in the year 1105 920 years ago from the rashi on on the kalucas rashi ask is bothered with a the borders of why did the Torah have to go through a few explaining the north, the south, the east, the west. What is a neaya the borders of stroll? Why is it nega the borders of aritrol? So Rashi says you know why it's negate the borders of Aritrol for mitzvah these are mitzvah you live in Israim there's so many mitzvah where exactly is so that's why the come and say we're the borders that's why it's the what the says we're the the the spell out the borders of the ham goes along with this of course with Rashi and he also adds on the PK starts if If you remember rashi in a different place savon actually beginning of and says zeroson so he says over here also it's a zeros the borders are not just st to know the borders of everything so it's a zeros what's the zeros take caution where the borders are because even though they are Truma sea outside of Aritis but it's only midon and you can't take Truma from Aritz to zero. Be careful when you take Truma know where the borders are. If you live over there on the border with Syria, it's a little bit that's out of initrol be it should be defined where the borders are to know when you take trumas a micrus person could be on a field that halfway is initro halfway out of >> part of it in let's say right >> good so you're not liking so much my martial of one field laavd is somebody over here that lives in Chestnut Ridge. That part of his property is in is in in in New Jersey. His pool actually in his backyard is New Jersey. So like the insurance on the pool is New Jersey. Laavd a person he lives in in he has he lives in but he has afterwards a separate piece of kaka that's zer be careful. asks the following question. He brings the saf in middle but we'll bring the saf to bring out the concept. The saf is in paras on the pekk the ramban over there brings the saf the p says Wherever you put your feet on, wherever you go meaning to say explains the free that even though there is the concept of if cloud will go and get other land it's going to be part be like because they do have uh it's called the on the border of Egypt for now it's you need to have a mel it's a it's a whole separate discussion it's totally beyond the scope of today's about not even political I'm talking about if But I'll free wherever you go you could conquer and has even add but adds a tenai that it's only after you conquer after you conquer then you could go to other lands if not you'll skip over arisro you conquer other places. You have to first conquer but let's just read the inside. It's why it's negated the borders. Wait a second. Even if we don't know the borders, we got out to stroll. Now we go elsewhere to a different place. Then also as a dinner the borders Rashi says that we're talking about mitzvah. It's true and there's another to it another concept besides the Mishna the first peric of Kin the Mishna says there are 10 levels of kadush is from everywhere else then the Mishna goes on further and further mikdash What's the So the mission says that you bring for says the mission and not for any other. The reason for that is because is not something that makes is something relevant to the person. When we live in we have to take but it doesn't make more. But why? Yes and he says because the are what you bring from carbon to the bdosh things that you bring carbonus to the bdosh that actually does that is kaducas the over there in elabus is bothered a little bit about because he says burim really is more like mitz okay that's something to speak about you also bring to the base amd you don't you're not as a carbon and the is for sure a carbon we spoke about over here lasting before that even though it doesn't mish go on calls it it goes on the mb we spoke about it it's a carbon but what are we saying with all this that besides what rashi says also Rashi doesn't say is there. So the emis is that Feinstein wants to be of what was says that it's even so if you get more property you'll still find answers and he says true that if you get more property outside of It's true. However, that's not applicable. This that the says that if you conquer more land these but not so he's saying a different terror not rashi. Rashi says that it's neglan asks it's even out of so why does have to say the borders this is a different terrorist it's for okay he wants to say that's what rashi means but not regular only that's that's like what the says So that's ter number one. You could call one terret twoim that the reason why the to say the borders is for says a different terror and he says you know why it's neg for the to spell out the borders that the says to go to and conquer the metavos kush to to go to war and kick out the ammon that live in our it's a so where exactly where exactly does the Torah want us to clear out that's why it's the borders you can't just have you can't just have where exactly when the Torah says we should go to clear out we need to know exactly where is to know where to clear That's why the Torah tells us the borders adds on to this and he says it's so if you look back right before the borders is actually where the to go kick out to be right before and that's why Right afterwards, the Tyra says, "I just told you where to clear out is I told you to clear out. Where exactly is we are the borders you have to clear out?" He says it's so why Ta doesn't Rashi say this? It's tako the mitsatu bars. But why didn't why did Rash have to go to it's when if you look back the before the say kush. So that's where it's neg the borders it's mish it fits right in the says conquer is then the says where is zonus you want to know why rashi didn't want to learn like because it's not relevant to know the full borders of arrol you just need to know what towns where the ammon the shiv the five ammon lived to go to war with them. Why isn't a gay the full borders of meaning to say even in between the places where people lived not everywhere in the borders were where people lived that we have to clear them out the you know why it's the could have just said up to the right clear out that town down to the bottom clear out this town. Why is it to spell out the full borders of even the places where nobody lived to say that of of so so far we have two roots and we have a terror of mitz and we have a ter that it's neg the borders for kush with the conqueror it's in the that's the from the he brings both in also he he brings and he brings both toutsim why the tora needed to spell out the borders of there are other tutumim as well why isn't a gay the borders brings from the s and he says says, "You know why it's the gay to know where the borders are to are the den is that when we want to pass in something, you go a comes out of meaning to say if you have 50, the pkim, the rais one way, You go with the You go with the as opposed to the or even the is very clear where is to be able to figure out the go. You need to know exactly where the borders are to know where is where is to go with the Israel. That's another ter. It's a third ter why it's relevant to borders. Another terret he says in the beginning those that are learning with just learned it in the beginning of says one of the mitzvah to be is only if you live in one of the It's to know the borders of to know if you're ali if you don't know where the borders are. You don't know if you're an antrol or not an either or that says that we always complain for people that >> good lisa even if I think they they they speak about it over there to get back how how many days that's why when you start being form so why did people come maybe people came even though they're not but says that you're not one live. So that's why it's negated borders. The mesh says the following tarrets in in paras is the benu the bodu didn't they wanted to stay in a yard. But what was agreed upon with Mosher Raelu was that they could only well they're going to stay behind and not go to war. So the terret says they're going to go into war kibish kibush once conquered then they could have their part in it's very relevant to know the borders of when could ben go take over their property their and only after was conquered. So where is the borders of Israel to know that it was conquered now they could go to they could go to take their part. So another why it's that the Tory tells us the borders to know and to know when they could go and have their part in a after was conquered. Lastly, another terret myasha swirl has a whole shear about it. But I'm taking out one piece. He brings this rabban. But another terrorists in general why it's negated the borders would be Alp Ramban the Rambana this week's para famous Ramban says it's the mitzvah to live it out. It's a discussion for itself. It's a shar for itself to understand exactly is it always even if you're visiting is it a is it a but that's why it's to say the borders it's to say the borders of Israel to know where is to be able to this is If there's a that's not it's out of the borders of and a person's living is not being kind of rashi doesn't say this doesn't say this and it could be cuz rashi the doesn't hold that of again It's rashite. We'll read the inside on that which means you'll conquer you'll be able to live in. However, you're not going to be able to. In other words, it's a speaking about your conqueror. you'll have learns that it's a mitzvah. Rashi doesn't learn that it's a mitzvah. So that's why it's not anina. This won't be an later. We spoke about when the Tyra says we said it's mitzvah. I just want to conclude with a vert for my grandfather. I've mentioned him times in the past. He learned put out a safer when he was still on. [Music] One of the isures begins when you'll come to the over says of you go. Everybody asks the Shiloh, what does mean you're going to only [Applause] go? So my grandfather answers that says in the you can have a room in the BD even though it's on it's but if the door is open to it has a why explain explains it when he says the following a person could be sitting in but if his mind is where the door is his mind is in so mainly It's even though you're sitting in it's but if the doors your mind is in you're not in Kaidesh anymore says my grandfather he says the same is a person could live in but not really be init person cannot utilize properly be anchored in the says this person to go into not just physically but be as we began this year that we're reading the paras of to go to for the we should be now it's the three weeks going into the nine days not just to go to but properly to be to be not just physically but our mind
