good evening today we are learning a double portion we are in our scroll how much on page 697. we start with parshad Behar on Mount Sinai Moshe received not only the Ten Commandments but the entire Torah and Torah and an example of what he received besides the Ten Commandments is written in this expression the Torah says in chapter 25 verse 1 Hashem spoke to Moshe on Mount Sinai same now if you want to know what did Hashem tell motion on harsinai besides Ten Commandments he said the following speak to the children of Israel and say to them Israel and say to them when you come into the land that I give you the land shall observe a Shabbat rest for Hashem and this is a very interesting idea not only people have to observe Shabbat the land also has to observe Shabbat how does the land observe Shabbat verse 3 explains for six years you may sow your field and for six years you may sow your field and for six years you may prune thank you your Vineyard and you may gather its crop but in the seventh year shall be a complete rest for the land the Shabbat for Hashem your field you shall not sow with seeds and your Vineyard you shall not prune now now unlike people that keep Shabbat which is one day a week the land keeps Shabbat one year out of seven year cycle and what are the laws for that year this year is called either chemita which means letting go releasing your control over the land or it's called which means the seventh year
