Shnayim Yomi - Behaalotcha - Sheni - #2 5784

[Music] alyah of sheni in the Aliyah of sheni we continue our discussion of the consecration of the Levan but we're told that the leim were not consecrated in a vacuum but rather they replaced the B and as we know the Torah tells us that after makos in MIT when hasem killed the first born of the Egyptian families all of the firstborn of the Jews every firstborn child of the Jewish people was dedicated and consecrated to however we know that because of their involvement in theel the borim were not permitted to retain that level of dedication and therefore the levim replaced the Bim as's assistance in the B mikdash MOS and b is all consecrate theim to replace the the alyah then describes the age at which the levim do their aod the levim worked in the B mikash the Torah says from the age of 25 to 50 in reality the mafam say that really thean began their aod at age 30 so what was the initial 5year period of 25 to 30 so Rashi says those are initial five years were years of apprenticeship when the Lev would train how to do their aod properly in the B mikdash the ran says that the 5 years were not an apprenticeship but rather the five years were years of volunteer work at 30 they were assigned a role but from 25 to 30 they had the ability to volunteer and to help out in the b mikdash in a volunteer role after age 50 leim could no longer do their MAV which was to carry the mishan and the Cale however the MAF tell us they were still permitted to do the other AOS such as guarding the gates of the of the mishkan and according to some they would still sing in the Mish although according to the ran they stopped singing at age 50 as well if you look atest is fascinating because inest the words appear five times says I will give the to Aon and his sons from is to serve the to atone and will not have any sort of plague as approach The KES and the question is why is the term B is used so often five times in one p says Rashi it's to elude to the love that has for just like hasem loves the Torah and just like the Torah the five books of the Torah T are so integral to who we are as a people so to hasem has an incredible love for the Jewish people just like those five books of the Torah really in essence we also see the connection between CL Isel and the Torah as the Z tells us quoted by many many that the Jewish people the Torah and are really all one and we see this connection between and and is and the Torah in the five times that B has mentioned inut [Music]
