A Levi for a Bechor

So we're moving along in the very very beginning [snorts] of dealing with the of and the oft now the first two do of the as we saw were not the two easiest do in chas pretty intense discussed the first Mishna the MSA which is a very large exclusion in the world of Petar. The law states that as much as a person's firstborn donkey assuming it's a male is going to have it's to be but to the extent that is what the scope of that is then the is you're going to be exempt. Today's DH is going to discuss another very fundamental and that is an idea that we're familiar with are from the laws of Bky. Now to be clear this is a Mishna later in the bar and are putter from two of the three subcategories of Bkarus. We mentioned right in the introduction to the mak that when you talk about you have to know are you talking about the of all kosher animals that have a firstborn zak where the is you have to take the animal give it to the k assuming it doesn't have a he brings it as a kb and it's going to have a kachchim are you talking about a firstborn which has its unique or are you talking about a human being para of so all can really be divided into three groups. Those three groups are very prominent in the world of and the reason is because and let's go backwards from everybody knows that they're also from the laws of but as it relates to a le that has a firstborn then it is going to maintain regardless our daf today which begins with aishno is going to discuss the laws of as relates to when they're from which means either or stating that the overwhelming majority of the is actually going to be a little more like a in fact it's going to discuss the status of when the yidden were in the midbar and from there as we're going to see the gumar is going to deduce certain that are very much in specifically as it relates to the Mishna and that is the fact that a from certain elements of the of but being that the [snorts] of the as we're going to see is very much related to the laws of when it has vibes it requires us to give a little bit of an introduction and go through some of them incidentally we already went through in by others. So just very very briefly while the were initi I want you to make and it doesn't matter if it's [snorts] they're going to have several later the says it's going to be that when you going to enter the land of Cananan. Your child is going to ask you what is this all about? By the way, we're going to see more about this tomorrow. But in this question, which is one of the four questions, Rashi says this is the child that's a He's going to say maz you know what he's commenting on you know what he's remarking on the he's going to wonder what is this all about. So you're going to tell him all about I'm skipping a little bit and then you're going to get to the punch line for that reason. So the Tyra says that came to while he and the and he told him meaning it sounds like the entire gamut of and not just that he gave the reason for why the are going to have kadusha and this is a very important reason it's not just important because it's not just important in the world of the ra and the and the in This is important because every single father when he gives over a to his child has to know this because you have to be you have to be armed and dangerous. You have to have this script. You have to tell him that the reason all the have is because when took the killed all the it's for that reason of the are going to have one thing is clear [snorts] that when there was already took place when the it happened literally at the very moment of makar. Now let's fast forward to parides comes to again this is I want you to know that I've taken the for myself from amongst what am I going to do with the I want to swap out the who I took for self back in par's boy when I said when I said well I'm going in another direction I want to take the now and I want them to be mine instead of the being mine now why would have done that if felt kadeshly he want the behu why all of a sudden is so we know the rest of the story. It's related to the ketel because sinned by the but there was one group of yidden that did not sin by the shy in fact when came down and he said lie so the entire ley gathered together but the whether they were from ruin or yehud it didn't matter they did not join moenu on the same level that ley did and it's for that reason ley now all of a sudden has this incredible milo that they were the ones that answered the call of lie the have this terrible that they were complicit in the not heed the call of and it's for that reason despite the fact they had but moving forward who says I don't want it to be that way fast forward Several later again comes to Mosha he tells him you remember I told you that I want to swap out the together with the yes okay let me tell you exactly how it's going to play itself out meaning the have kadusha you can't just go ahead and and take away kadusha we've learned enough timi together to know that if something has kadusha even though there's a concept where you can remove kaduca from something sometimes yeah sometimes not but there's a process it's known as pigon in the vernacular but there's a mahal of exactly how that works is going to come to mo now and he's going to give him the mahal how exactly is this pigeon going to take place I want you to go and I want you to count I want you to count every single doesn't matter what it is from I want you to count every single one as long as he's one month or older and come to me with a number. And then what I want you to do is I want you to take the for me and I want you to then take the swap them out for all these and by the way this is very important for today's I also want you take the of the and I want you to use them So, not only are we going to swap out the human, but we're going to swap out the So, the first thing was told was count. So, he goes and he counts all the drum roll. What was the number? It was 22,000. 273. So, the final tally was 22273. 22,273. Here's part two. Now, I want you to take the and I want you to take them like I told you. But the 273 that are above and beyond that are more than the amount of that we have. What are you going to do with them? Now the rest of the story is some of the that we didn't learn together and that is that earlier in pious counted everybody and when he came to the levim the tally was 22,000 which meant there were 22,000 levim 22,273 Israel. So [snorts] the 22,000 swapped with the 22,000 but they're 273 Israel that don't have a ley to be swapped out with. So what are you going to do with that? You should take five shekels. Five for each one of those additional and each should be made up of what do you do with the money? You give it to and that's going to be the pinion for the he went ahead and he did what he did from 273 people. He took five shekels and the does the math for us. What we end what he ended up with was 1,365 shekels. They just he just won the lottery. He had this big windfall as like told to do so in parades. Why? Because then happened. The world would never be the same after the even though took us back and he gave us another bris and we got and to a degree we saw that we even hadn't seen prior but at the same time at the same time the world would never be the same. And one of the shiny was that whereas the was supposed to be the it as it relates to the now it was going to be the but the already had kadusha how exactly are we going to swap out the kadusha from the can't just make them from into there has to be some process something's going to happen so what was that process every single that had a ley to correspond to him Just an easy swap. I'm nice to meet you. Somehow there's some energy that goes from Bkar to Ley. Boom. He becomes He becomes Kaidesh. They both live happily ever after. But what about the 273 Israel that didn't have a ley to shake hands with the Tyra says you should go and you should take and give it to. Now this pion of is eerily similar to what we know as as without a question we'll even see it in the d but at the same time it's not the same thing it's not the same thing right it's a different [snorts] concept that's a mitzvah this was over here by the way it all went to a kayen there every father has a right to pick and choose which kayen he wants to go ahead and give it to but the bottom line is without a question. This is related to the general idea of albeit a version of it. By the way, not only was there opinion on the human, but there was also opinion as it relates to the behemoths as well. Either way, a little bit of an elaborate introduction, but I believe a very critical introduction as we start now. Dough dollar.
