V’Zos HaBerachah - 6th Portion

Join me as we learnish for Friday Parishes Sabra. The sixth Torah reading of parishes sabra chapter 33 verse 27. Yesterday we concluded with the blessings that were given to the tribes and each individual tribe with their blessings. Today we continue with Moshe's blessings to the Jewish people on the last day of his life. which are abode for God who preceded all the world's mighty ones who are below. He expelled the enemy from before you and said, "Destroy them." They are for a dwelling place which is the heavens are like God's dwelling place. What does it mean? The God that was before everything which was before all the different deities that exist. And he chose the high heavens for his place of resting. And therefore nobody can stop him from it. And underneath his resting place, the place where he lives, all strength, people of great strength in the world rest. Who's referring to the people that are mighty in the world? This is referring to the nations, the kingdom of the kingdom of that they were considered the superpowers of the world and however God in heaven and therefore they're below him and the god can control them as he needs. So therefore by force they will be fearful and afraid and their strength will be weakened before you because always the guy that's on top is the one that's stronger than the one on the bottom. So therefore he's saying God's on top. they automatically are weaker and they will be weakened because of you who because God who's in the heavens he has the power and the strength to him and therefore he will be there always to help you that God is the one that chases out the enemies before you and he tells you destroy them Rashi goes back to explain the word what it means means like his dwelling place his his place of his abode generally a word that you can put a lam at the beginning like to is abode you can put a hey at the end and it will give you the same translation like instead of saying go to the land you can say or to the land as well verse and the Jewish people will therefore be able to dwell safely and individually Just as Jacob in the land of grain and wine, so too as well their heavens will drip doom. Each individual person will be rest secure in his land. every person sitting and relaxing under their vines and their under figs. They'll all be scattered out in their territory. They're not going to have to gather together and you know get there to protect one another meaning like like Jacob just like we find in other places where he says that it looked like and is a word like like Another explanation is like the blessing that he blessed. Not like Jeremiah that says that they had to sit alone. But not that they're sitting alone because they're mourning. But they're sitting alone because since they're sitting there rest secure that they have no worries whatsoever like the promise that Yakov gave them that God will be give with you and it will bring you to the land of your forefathers. The word yu means to drip like it'll come drip dew from heaven. He's going back also as well that over here he's telling us a that Moshe is adding on to the previous blessings of Abraa and Jacob addition to the blessing of Jacob that God will give you from the D of the heaven that addition to what already blessed Jacob I'm giving you a blessing as well today. Verse 29. Fortunate are you, O Israel, who is like you. Oh people whose salvation is through God, the shield who helps you, your majestic sword. Your enemies will lie to you, but you will tread upon their heights. Let's see. Rashi after Moshe detailed all the different blessings to all the Jewish people, he said, "What else can I add in the details that I've told you? It isn't a rule. The bottom line is that all the blessings and everything is yours. Lucky are you the Jewish people. Your salvation God is what's going to be your shield of protection at all times and no bad should come to you. the of and the and the majestic sword that you always have is that the very fact that God will always be there to protect you that God is the one that will protect you against your enemies. Your enemies will be afraid of you like the came and tried to trick you. They said that we came from a foreign land because when they heard what the Jewish people already did to Jericho and they heard that they're conquering the land, they became scared and they want to too. They were terrified and because of that they came to Yeshua and that they um as if they came from someplace far not from the land of Cananan as they were concerned that they might be wiped out as well. As it says in Joshua, put your feet on the necks of these kings. Meaning be besides after Yeshua conquered already the five kings, God told them to be able to destroy all the other kings and they'll be easily accessible to do so as if they're just stepping on their necks and destroying them on their own.
