THE OHR SOMAYACH TORAH MAGAZINE  WWW.OHR.EDU OHRNET PARSHAT TETZAVEH  15 ADAR 1 5784, 24 FEBRUARY 2024  VOL 31 NO.18 PARSHA INSIGHTS by Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair An Amazing Hint “…to kindle the light continually.” (27:20) If you count all the lights lit over the eight days of Chanukah (without including the Shamash), the number is thirty-six. “…to kindle the light continually” If you count backwards thirty-six Torah portions from the beginning of the Torah, you will get to Parshat Tetzaveh, this week’s portion, in which the lamp is referred to in the singular, “lamp,” like Beit Shammai who says to go backwards down to one. But, if you count forward from the beginning of the Torah thirty-six Torah portions, you will come to Parshat Behaalotecha, where it says, “When you kindle the lamps.” The word lamps is in the plural, like Beit Hillel who says to go forward to thirty-six candles by the end of Chanukah. ww.ohr.edu 2 TALMUD TIPS by Rabbi Moshe Newman Bava Kama 114-119 On a High Note “One should conclude Torah study with a ‘good word’.” The concluding portion of Bava Kama teaches how to determine when taking another’s property is considered theft and when it is not. Rashi explains that they were makpid regarding others taking their animal grain because Masa Machsia was a place of many animals, and much of this grain was needed by the animal owners since their animals required a “good pasture.” The Maharsha points out that it would have been sufficient for Rashi to have written the word “pasture” without the word “good.” He suggests that Rashi intentionally included the word “good” (tov) as the final word of his commentary on Bava Kama in order to end on a “good note” — after nearly completing study of a Tractate that is virtually entirely dedicated to the negative topic of damages. Therefore, instead of ending his commentary with the word “pasture” (mireh), which in Hebrew would be stating the word “bad” (ra’ah) at the end, Rashi ends with the word “good,” a word that is correct in the context of the case in the gemara, and serves to “conclude Torah study with a 'good word'.” In
