in order to understand the story a
little better let's go to our quick map
over here just a quick review we left
egypt to get from egypt to israel from
the side door over here it took us 40
years
this happened in the first year and a
half this happens over 38 years it's now
the 40th year it's now time for us to
get closer to israel we're not going to
the land of edom aralia discusses that
as we come to line of edom
moshe sends messengers to adam to ask
permission to go through land so we can
go into israel
and when he goes to edom he tells
adolescent dom
you know we were brothers i don't miss
it
we're yakov i i'm sure you heard but we
made a wrong turn without mitzrayim and
we're slaves these past 400 and somewhat
years and now hashem we're free
obviously you have your land without
asking permission as you know the not so
lucky people can we go through your land
just so we can go in to israel we won't
go through your fields we won't take
anything from you just
go through king's highway and go right
into israel to which a dome says no you
cannot cross through our land you cannot
drink our water and if you come here
we'll come out with swords to which
moshe respond and said listen if we do
drink from your water we'll pay you for
it that water theme is still
blaking us
and he says we won't go to the hamilkar
government we'll go on your side of
roads in case you worry about us hurting
your highways edom comes out with their
men to greet moshe at that point moshe
says okay we're not gonna have any
problems and now they have to walk
around edom
so they shouldn't have to walk through
the land going around them takes them to
a place called
here i want to point out that this is
how we jews fight our wars we don't we
always ask permission we push and we beg
and we offer to pay
and if at the end of the day they tell
us no and there are other options for us
to go to we walk around and that's what
we have done our entire lives if we
cannot do it with the permission of
people and there are other options we
take the other options
