Ki Sisa: The Discrepency Between the 2 Commandments About the 3 Festivals in Shemos

breath. Dear friends, twice in safer Shemot we have the mitzvah of the Shalosh Regalim. One in this week's parashah, Shalosh pa'amim bashanah ye'ra'eh kol zachar el-penei Adonai Hashem. And Hashem says, "Don't worry. As I banish the the nations of the of that live in Canaan and I widen your borders, lo yachmod ish es artzecha ba'alosecha li'ra'os es-penei Adonai Elohecha shalosh pa'amim bashanah. When you abandon your homes to go be oleh regel, don't worry. No one will invade." Can you imagine? You have a mitzvah of aliyah laregel. People live in a border city. They're going to leave their home, they're going to leave their houses, they're going to leave their cities, their villages, and go up to be oleh regel. Who's going to protect the borders? Who's going to protect their houses and their possessions? Hashem says, "Don't worry. Nobody will covet your land." In parashas Mishpatim we also have the mitzvah of Shalosh Regalim. Shalosh regalim regalim tachag li bashanah. And there it doesn't give the promise that no one will covet the land. Why is this promise only given in Ki Sisa and it wasn't given in Mishpatim? Says the Nesivos Shalom very simply, Chazal say, "Had the Luchos not been broken, the nations of the world would have no dominion over the Jewish people. There would be no shibud malchiyos." Parashas Mishpatim was before the chet ha'egel, before the Luchos were broken. Before the chet ha'egel, before the Luchos were broken, it was not needed to give this promise. We had no fear from the gentiles at all. We were never in danger, we were never prone, we were never vulnerable. But now this is after the chet ha'egel. Now there's a concept of shibud malchiyos. Now we always have to be concerned for the nations of the world. So Hashem says, "Don't worry. By the Shalosh Regalim, I give you a special haftarah that lo yachmod ish es artzecha ba'alosecha li'ra'os es-penei Adonai Elohecha." only in the aftermath of the it was not needed uh in before the one more thing I want to share with you.
