 Shevi’i

  • Individual sinned: If a single individual performs a sin [relating to idolatry] he is to bring one she-goat as a Chatas. Hashem will forgive him for his sin.
  • A brazen sinner: One who brazenly sins [with idolatry] will be cut off from his nation.
  1. Mikosheish Eitzim:
  • The Jewish people were in the desert and they found a man gathering wood on Shabbos and brought him to Moshe and Aaron for further instruction of what shall be done to him. He was placed in custody as they did not know what his punishment should be.
  • The punishment: Hashem said to Moshe that the man shall die through stoning. The entire congregation is to stone him outside of the camp. The nation did as they were instructed, and he was stoned to death outside the camp.
  1. Mitzvah of Tzitzis:
  • Hashem told Moshe to tell the Jewish people to make Tzitzis on the corners of their garments, and place a thread of Techeiles turquoise wool on each corner. By seeing the Tzitzis they will remember the Mitzvos of Hashem and perform them and not stray after their hearts and eyes.
  • I am Hashem who took you out of Egypt.
