now before khali israel actually left
mitzrayim the bahrain the firstborn were
sanctified to hashem and they needed to
be redeemed now the process of
redemption was not given until now and
in this
hashem tells moshe that i want you to
take a census of the bahoram of the
firstborn in claudia israel or every
male from one month old and up you
should count them in this census and
then what you're going to do is you're
going to redeem the firstborn for the
levium in claudius for every one bahr
he's going to be redeemed for one levy
so hashem wants that the bakura and the
firstborn themselves to be redeemed and
as well for their animals to be redeemed
now what was interesting is that it
turned out that the number of bahram of
born was actually 273
more than the amount of livium that
there were in claudia israel so in turn
hashem said okay for the excess bahorim
you're going to redeem them by each one
paying five shekel in order to be
redeemed and that money is going to be
given to our own now rashi points out
something very interesting that moshe
had a dilemma he said that you know what
am i going to do i'm going to go over to
a bachar and say that you have to give
me five shekel to be redeemed and he say
no no not me i'm one of the people that
gets redeemed through a levy why do i
have to pay the five shekel and
everyone's going to say this so what
should i do so what moshe abbayna
decided to do is as follows he had a
massive lottery and he wrote down on 22
000 tickets the word ben levy and then
he took another
273 tickets and wrote down five shkolin
and what he did is he put them all in a
big pot and he had all of the bahrain
pick out and that
was the way in which they determined how
they were going to be redeemed
