Today's show is dedicated by my dear friend Dr. Fuges in honor of the yardite of Rabbi Mayor Kahana. Okay, the first 20kum of this week's para are a very in-depth description of the purchase of the cave of the patriarchs. [snorts] What's of note is nearly every time the Torah references the it say oh the Abraham bought from the Ben. So even though we have 20ukim describing how he bought it from the b the tora will not waste an opportunity to describe how when they bury uh someone there being buried in the ke okay let's say at the end of now really you would have thought it could stop We're okay. So now we got the address. We got a very exact address. And now we have to have the deed shares. I think we remember that Abraham bought it from the I think we remember that was the first 20 of the para. Then let's talk about Jacobu tells Y listen Y uh my days are coming uh upon me um Let's see. And then Okay, then at the end of Oh, okay. Here we go. Where? Where is [clears throat] but I I think we know that already. We know who we know how we got it. Why nearly every time we we discuss the We have to say how it was bought.
