Okay, good morning everyone. I'm Hazaku. Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Tuesday morning as we are studying together parashatim. Parashatim is the first paras of the final fifth and final seph book of the book of Deuteronomy which we explained yesterday is called such because it's the Mishn Torah. It's a repetition. It's Mosheu repeating the Torah to the Jewish people over everything they experienced over the last 40 years. And he goes on and a lot of it is words of rebuke. A lot of it is rebuke words of criticism. lot of it is rebuke words of criticism. Tells us in chapter 2, chapter 2, Moshe is telling to the Jewish people. He says to them, "And then God said to me the following enough circling this mountain. turn north northward and then command the people tell them that they are now going to tell them that they are now going to pass through the territory the boundary of their brother we know that is our brother is Yakov's brother and Yakov is our grandpa so Isab is our uncle so you're passing through your brother your cousin through Isav's territory who dwell in they will fear you. And because they will fear you, you may be enticed to will fear you, you may be enticed to maybe want to attack them and to intimidate them. But be very careful. Don't you dare provoke them. I'm not going to give you any piece of their land. Even the right to set foot. you're not even going to be able to pass through the land rather it's an inheritance to that I've given this area. So here we have God telling the Jewish people
