Join me as we learn
for today. For Tuesday parishes
yesterday's Monday, we learned about
Israel giving advice to Moshe, his his
son-in-law, telling him that because the
Jewish people are standing all day, this
is going to tire Moshe out and tire the
people out. And therefore he advises
them to appoint leaders for a thousand,
for 100, for tens this way to ease the
burden. However, he tells them you must
get God's agreement to it. Today,
Tuesday, chapter 18, verse 24,
and Moshe the voice of his
father-in-law,
and he did all that he said.
Rashi
There's no rashi on it. So we continue
as Moshe tells what Moshe presents his
plan to the Jewish people and he does as
God told them.
And therefore Moshe chose
wellestablished people
from all the Jewish people
and he made them leaders amongst the
Jewish people
leaders of a thousand. Leaders of a 100
kamishim leaders of 50. the and leaders
of tents
20. Oh, sorry. We continue into
verse 26.
And Moshe tells the Jewish people that
these leaders what they will be from now
on.
They judged the people
at all times.
The difficult things they brought to
Moshe
in all these simple matters
they judged on their own. The minor
matters they did on their own. Verse 26,
this is talking about as they would do
it
that this is what they judged currently.
What does the word means? They would
bring
they would judge
and all these different terminologies as
we mentioned in the previous verses
are also as well as things that will
happen in the future.
Therefore, the Aramaic translation looks
at it as the future as well.
something that are happening currently
and what will happen as they continue to
go on in their time of the desert as so
as now the appointed time the Jewish
people did not know that they were not
going immediately into the land of
Israel this was assumed this would
continue into the land of Israel as well
verse 27
and Moshe now sent off his father-in-law
and what Israel then did he went set
back on his way to his homeland.
This is now telling us if we look later
in the book of numbers we find out that
Israel stayed with the Jewish people for
over seven months and this was to
supervise the implementation of his plan
and when they were about to leave Mount
Si which was on the 20th of year 2449
then he decided to go to Midian and to
convert his family that was all there
after he successfully set up this whole
judicial system with Moshe as Rashi
tells us
why did he go back to his friendly guy
to convert his family.
This concludes the third Torah reading
of Pares Israel.
