Um the second for this week regarding the commandment to have um fear and just measures that is found in our parha and I want to read the tupukum in their entirety. If you have a kish or a kayenu or dharmus that you want to um quickly access it is in peric utes chapter 19 vers 35 and 36. The terra says of elamishbat you must not practice fraudulence in matters of judgment. And this type of fraudulence could express itself involving measures of distance for instance in property lines or in weight or in volume referring to liquid and dry measures. The next p says, "You shall have accurate scales, accurate weights, an accurate dry measure, and an accurate liquid measure." And then the puzzle continues. I am the eternal your God who took you out of the land of Egypt. So regarding this because of now we're going back into the that the says you should not practice fraudulence injustice in any type this would express itself in any type of inaccurate measure. Then the says I am God your God who took you out of Egypt. So on these two sukim and on this concept the Rambam seemingly um based on the medish says the following. And anyone who denies or rebuffs this commandment regarding measurement, it is as if he denies or rebuffs the whole idea of the exodus from Egypt because the leaf taking from is the beginning of all commandments. And anyone who accepts upon themselves to be very scrupulous and and do the right thing with measures, they are in this way acknowledging the exodus from Egypt because our leaf taking from is the beginning or gramma means the cause for all of the mitzvah, all of the commandments. Mishna and the Mishna which is a commentary on the Rambam.
