Parashat 54 Portion 174 Ve zot …Dev/Deut 33:1-34:12 Yehosh/Josh 1:1-18


Bar’chu et YHVH ha-m’vorach, Baruch YHVH ha-m’vorach l’O’lam va-ed! Baruch ata YHVH
Eloheinu melech ha-olam asher bachar banu m’kol ha-amim, v’na-tan lanu eht Torah-to.
Baruch atah YHVH, noteyn ha-Torah. Ameyn.”

 (Bless YHVH the blessed One; Blessed is YHVH, the blessed One for all eternity. Blessed are you, YHVH, our Elohim, King of the Universe, you have selected us from among all the peoples,and have given us your Torah. Blessed are you, YHVH, giver of the Torah. Ameyn.)

Jer 23:7 “Therefore, see, the days are coming,” declares יהוה, “when they shall say no more, ‘As יהוה lives who brought up the children of Yisra’ĕl out of the land of Mitsrayim,’
Jer 23:8 but, ‘As יהוה lives who brought up and led the seed of the house of Yisra’ĕl out of the land of the north and from all the lands where I had driven them.’ And they shall dwell on their own soil.”

Isa 27:12  And in that day it shall be that יהוה threshes, from the channel of the River to the wadi of Mitsrayim. And you shall be gathered one by one,a O children of Yisra’ěl. Footnote: a Jer_3:14-15
Isa 27:13  And in that day it shall be that a great shophar is blown, and those who were perishing in the land of Ashshur and the outcasts in the land of Mitsrayim shall come, and shall worship יהוה on the set-apart mountain, in Yerushalayim. 

Rom 11:25  For I do not wish you to be ignorant of this secret, brothers, lest you should be wise in your own estimation, that hardening in part has come over Yisra’ěl, until the completeness of the nations has come in. Footnote: a Gen_48:19
Rom 11:26  And so all Yisra’ěl shall be saved, as it has been written, “The Deliverer shall come out of Tsiyon, and He shall turn away wickedness from Ya‛aqoḇ, 
Rom 11:27  and this is My covenant with them, when I take away their sins.” Isa_59:20-21
Rom 11:28  Truly, as regards the Good News they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the choice they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. 
Rom 11:29  For the gifts and the calling of Elohim are not to be repented of. 

Deu 33:1  And this(Parashat 54 “v zot ha bracha”) ) is the blessing with which Mosheh the man of Elohim blessed the children of Yisra’ĕl before his death.

Parashat 53 Portion 173 Dev 32:1-52 Yesh 1:2-9 + 16-27 Rom 11



Bar’chu et YHVH ha-m’vorach, Baruch YHVH ha-m’vorach l’O’lam va-ed! Baruch ata YHVH Elohim melech ha-olam asher bachar banu m’kol ha-amim, v’na-tan lanu eht Torah-to. Baruch atah YHVH, noteyn ha-Torah. Ameyn.”

(Bless YHVH the blessed One; Blessed is YHVH, the blessed One for all eternity. Blessed are you, YHVH, our Elohim, King of the Universe, you have selected us from among all the peoples,and have given us Your Torah. Blessed are YHVH our Elohim – Giver of the Torah – Amein.’)

First four verses of song, see previous portion 172.

Rom 11:8  As it has been written, יהוה has given them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see and ears not to hear, unto this day.” Deu_29:4, Isa_29:10

5.      Dev 32:5 A twisted and crooked generation has corrupted itself

שִׁחֵת לוֹ לֹא, בָּנָיו מוּמָם

Enlarged ‘’hey’’ standing on its own in of vs 5, draws our attention to a hidden meaning.
Which should literally read “ he was perverted or corrupted for/to Him, not his sons/children the moral stains of them”. This could also read “he became corrupt(towards YHVH) with the moral stains that were not his but those of other sons.”
In verse 5  the English translation is difficult to separate because words from both the right and the left are mixed up - Deu 32:5  “A twisted and crooked generation has corrupted itself, They are blemished, they are not His children. It should read:

דּוֹר עִקֵּשׁ, וּפְתַלְתֹּל

7(b)   a generation perverse and twisted (wrestling with itself)” referring to the sons of men on earth.

8.Dev 32:6 “Do you do this to יהוה, (is this the way you treat/recompense Yahveh?)
ו הַ לְיְהוָה, תִּגְמְלוּ-זֹאת--

Note the enlarged “hey” in the Torah. This once again points to the revelation of Messiah  – “hey” speaks of revelation (window) in the Hebrew idiom.
Is this the way you treat the Moshiach who has laid down his life for you Israel, who has taken upon himself our moral stains?

8(b) O foolish and unwise people – left hand side.
עַם נָבָל, וְלֹא חָכָם

6.      Is He not your Father, who bought you?
הֲלוֹא-הוּא אָבִיךָ קָּנֶךָ,  

1Co 6:20  For you were bought with a price….
9(b) Who created you and established you.
הוּא עָשְׂךָ וַיְכֹנְנֶךָ

10.Dev 32:7 “Remember the days of old,

זְכֹר יְמוֹת עוֹלָם

10(b)  Understand the years from generation to
generation. (there is a pattern)
בִּינוּ שְׁנוֹת דֹּר-וָדֹר
Return to the ancient paths of your fathers - Jer 6:16  Thus said יהוה, “Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; and find rest for yourselves. But they said, ‘We do not walk in it.’

11.Ask (plead/beg) your father and let him tell you,
שְׁאַל אָבִיךָ וְיַגֵּדְךָ

11(b) Your elders,(bearded ones - zakan) and they will say to you:
זְקֵנֶיךָ וְיֹאמְרוּ לָךְ

12.Dev 32:8When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance

בְּהַנְחֵל עֶלְיוֹן גּוֹיִם

When the Supreme(Elyon) gave allotments to the nations.
12(b) When He (caused the separation)) separated(parad) the sons of Aḏam,

בְּהַפְרִידוֹ בְּנֵי אָדָם
YHVH brings separation in His creation in order to establish perfection.

13 He will set the boundaries of the nations.

יַצֵּב גְּבֻלֹת עַמִּים
13(b) According to the number of the children of Yisra’ĕl.

לְמִסְפַּר בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל.

Luke 19:17-19 Parable of minas – faithful ruling over cities.

14. Dev 32:9 “For(because “ki”) the (chosen) portion of יהוה is His people,
כִּי חֵלֶק יְהוָה, עַמּוֹ
14(b) Yaʽaqoḇ His allotted(chevel) inheritance.
יַעֲקֹב, חֶבֶל נַחֲלָתוֹ
Psa 16:6  Boundary lines(chevelim) have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, a good inheritance is mine.
15.Dev 32:10 “He found him in a wilderness,

יִמְצָאֵהוּ בְּאֶרֶץ מִדְבָּר

Heb “yimtzeoo” means “he is finding him in a desert land”
