[Music] this week's paraa has an abundance of Mitzvah actually the most in all of T 74 Mitzvah we have 27 as and 47 lyses um the para starts off when you go out to war it's a war it's not a war it's not a Mitzvah but it's a war that you're allowed to go and make and of course you know the soldiers go out and the their adrenaline is up and the testosterone is high and of course you're going to see what what we call an as a woman beautiful woman she doesn't want to be killed she wants to maybe be taken as a as a wife as a slave something and the Torah understands that you're going to see this woman and you're going to desire her and the Torah says don't worry we're going to give you a way that you can still have this woman but in a M dick in in in an appropriate way what do we have to do so you have to shave her head make her look ugly um the says you have to make her nails that's a little bit vague Rashi seems to say that you should make you should let her nails grow um you should let the nails grow long um While others say no just the opposite means to make just like you shaved her head you you should also make her nails so trim her nails either way I guess it depends you know some people like longer Nails shorter nails but you have to waigh 30 days and if you will desire if you'll desire then you get to marry her and if not then you have to let her go you not let to sell her as a slave or anything like that and then the then the Aliyah turns into what happens if you have two wives one you like when you don't like how you're supposed to uh how you supposed to deal with your inheritance right if if from the from the first wife you have a son and you don't like this wife so much are you allowed to give the inheritance over to to the son of a second wife and the Torah says no and then the third topic just to finish up the alyah the third topic is borra the wayward son right um the TK says that uh that the son doesn't listen to the call of the Father the call of the mother right the voice of the Father the voice of the mother which leads us to a very interesting thing what why does it say separately the voice of the father the voice of the mother and that's a very important lesson that in a home the father and the father and the mother have to be one voice they can't have separate voices it doesn't work if you have two separate sets of philosophies father and mother have to speak as one and have to seem as as they're giving one DK for the family to grow and Rashi points out the progression of these three topics together what happens the guy goes out to war he sees a beautiful woman he brings her home he does everything he's supposed to do he takes her as a wife and then he ends up not liking her you know seeing that you know what her background is how she behaves you know it's not really very Jewish even though now she's considered Jewish and uh he doesn't like her and what happens the son from this marriage becomes B I heard a very very interesting shot totally different than that than what Rashi points out imagine this you're a wife you're a child and your father or husband is going out to war you're dobbing you you're nervous you're on the edge of your seat however long your father is away and you D please please let my father and my husband come back safely and and what happens the father comes home with another woman and he wants to marry another woman the borura is that son his son was at home doing he says this is what my father thinks of when he goes out to war we're thinking about him the whole time he doesn't think about us that's the son who becomes thear [Music]
