Parshas Mishpatim: The Legend of the German Article Rebbe Yonasan Eibeshutz Read

this tour class is brought to you by torahanytime.com at the beginning of the week I just want to share with you an interesting thought on pashas mishpatim at the end of the parashah paragraph gimmel you have right before shishi posix said racist bikure Tavi base Hashem the first fruits the beginning of the ripened fruits of your of your Earth you should bring to the house do not cook a kid in its mother's milk so here the Posse gives us the prohibition of they're actually three times in the Torah that this prohibition appears like very interesting question one would ask uh is that here we have an Israel of not eating milk and meat the question is why is this Prohibition in this prohibition should be in which is the Parsha of Mahala sasurus what's it doing in parashas mishbatham additionally what would the connection be to the beginning of the plastic gracious what does it have to do with the mitsubish when the world of not eating or cooking me it have to do with bikurim and we could add the two second before it says Hashem three times a year you have to be Ole Regal what would the Israel have to do with the Mitzvah of Alia so very interestingly if you look in this far now sarano says like this there's a star no that this prohibition is interesting it says don't do those actions that the outside do to increase their fruits Ella racist because bring your fruits to the base and there they will be blessed in other words the esparna is identifying that there was an ancient custom that in order to cause an abundance of fruits and uh and success and hatsaka for the fruits they would actually cook milk and meat and use the mixture of melted meat to to enhance the fertility and the productivity of the fruits so according to this formula the plastic is saying like this do not cook milk and meat you want your fruits to be successful bring them up to the base of mcdosh you want success in your fruits gracious with Korean bring your bikurim that will bring you bracha but don't do that don't think that by cooking mocha meat that will bring brings success to your fruits interesting the rambam writes somewhat similar around them in the book says that is a very thick gas type of food and it creates great productivity for fruits and the drama meds that this is sort of an idolatrous practice this is one of the ways that they would celebrate on their young and toivan and the Ramadan says the reason why I feel that way is the fact that the is introduced with the apostic of the it's as if it's saying it's it's as if it's saying the way to celebrate yamta is by going up to the way but don't celebrate yams of the way the idolators by these concoctions of milk and meat so basically putting the rambam and the disfarno together which which is brought down this way in the silver oil moisture then we understand the flow of the beginning of the plastic says bring your fruits up to the base that make Dash their used to celebrate but don't celebrate the way the game celebrate by cooking mocha meat Additionally you should bring your fruits up to the base I think they are still to attain braca for them but not through but that's the connection well that would explain why this prohibition is mentioned in this week's parashah and then not in parashas shmini because the reason why Boston is not it's not a Mahala Asura it's not a forbidden food like other mahalosa is on the other hand is because of the isra of avidazara so therefore it it is appropriate not to be with the other is which are more inherent to the food itself as opposed to this which is an idolatrous practice but now this would explain why not most other foods are not as why is according to the Rama according to this foreign this would explain why as well what's interesting is that there's a very uh relevant story brought down in a number of swarms brought down in the safer Asif ascribe in this week's parasha it's brought down in uh the safer of um it's brought down in the same is brought down the safer Paradise safe and the story goes as follows The Story Goes that um who lived in the community of ejo in Germany so his custom was when he was in the basement when he was in the basement so he didn't want to waste time he would use the opportunity to learn German and he was reading a German article in a newspaper and it was brought down and this it was brought down that art in this article if somebody wants to cause their fruits to grow faster and sooner they should cook mocha meat together and pour it on the tree during the course of 30 days and then the fruits will uh grow faster even in the winter and so the Ravi understands sort of immediately made the calculation well now he understands the juxtaposition of racism you might think that in order to for Zeus you might think that in order to be able to bring me Quorum sooner you should cook milk a meat and pour it out there because based on this article that would cause the fruits to grow faster so the Tara's saying no you should bring your recurim but don't use this methodology to bring it sooner because sort of caught himself that he was being mahara batoira in the basement he say and he was so distressed by this that he was that he fasted 40 tanesan and he was a macabreland himself that in the base like you say he did not read sign unless it caused him to think in learning by the way the example also adopted this practice that he wouldn't read any uh any books in the basic you say even secular books less the cousin to think to him well certainly a person has to be careful not to allow his thoughts to uh lead him to thinking director in the base but in any event this shot of is pretty much what the smarno and the rambam are saying um so it seems like a a good shot an interesting shot and something for you to think about I wish everybody a wonderful week you've just experienced another Torah class brought to you by torahanytime.com
