okay oh we didn't quite finish the four cents on page 29. there were two questions that i asked which i didn't answer yesterday one is how does the haggadah say about the wicked son because he used the phrase to you he's excluding himself in the community which is a terrible thing when the wise son also says when the wise son also says has commanded you which would sound as if he's also excluding himself from the community the answer is very simple look carefully what the wise son says page 29 did i say 27 i'm i'm a mistake i'm sorry 29. what is it that the y says that that cancels out that implication in his case he says hashem our god he says hashem our god so he can't be excluding himself from the community well the question is if so why does he say he commanded you simple answer is he's not of age he's still a minor so you can't say that he's commanded he's not an adult okay that's the answer to that question and then the wise son mentions three different kinds of mitzvos now in english they're translated as testimonies decrees and ordinances in the hebrew testimonies is pretty good in the hebrew testimonies is pretty good a dos comes from the word aid which means a witness these are symbolic commandments things that you do which carry a symbolic meaning in other words at least as far as we can naturally see in the world there's no particular impact of the action per se is just associated in one's mind with certain themes and therefore it has that significance
