Parsha Shoftim
Students
of human nature have long debated which traits are inborn, such as hatreds and
prejudices, and which are learned and acquired in life … People tend to believe
that, somehow, they are immune to corruption if they do not actually take money
offered to influence their opinions and judgments. However, that is a very
simplistic view of corruption. Since people feel that they are balanced and
fair in their opinions and viewpoints, this is exactly what leads to
prejudices, intolerance of others and a closed mind when it comes to deciding
on important issues and personal matters.
One of
the reasons the Talmud insisted that at least three people be present to judge
in a Jewish court of law is that when you have three people you will
automatically hear different points of view and a fairer result will emerge.
There are exceptional cases where even one judge – and that judge must be a true
expert on the law and facts involved – will suffice, but the practice in Jewish
courts throughout the ages has been to have more than one judge – at least
three – involved in arriving at judicial decisions. The Torah demanded that we
pursue justice and fairness at all costs. It does not guarantee that we will
always be able to achieve that goal, but it does demand that we constantly
pursue it.
Shabbat
shalom Rabbi Berel Wein
This
is why the Torah opens as follows:
18
Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which the LORD thy
God giveth thee, tribe by tribe; and they shall judge the people with righteous
judgment.
With the
exception of the great Sanhedrin of all tribes, the regular judges and even the
small Sanhedrin are local members of one’s tribe or peers.
19 Thou
shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons; neither shalt thou
take a gift; for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words
of the righteous.
One has
to be careful even with an exchange of Purim presents that are customary so as
to recluse himself from being a judge. For one can see these things. In
Tractate Sanhedrin there was a certain judge (non-Jewish) that issued
‘righteous’ judgements and the locals were going to him instead of Beis Din.
Rabban Gamliel and his sister made like they had a dispute and hinted to him of
their bribes. One of the bribes was a lamp given by the sister and the Rabbi
gave a valuable donkey worth more. The judge ruled in his favor. The sister
pleaded make an enlightened judgement but the Rabbi said that my donkey kicked
over your lamp. From here the public knew that he took bribes and returned to
Beis Din.
20
Justice, justice shalt thou follow, that thou may live, and inherit the land
which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
In the
civil courts in Israel this is sadly lacking. In the religious courts in Israel
the judges often don’t recognize municipal or civil statutes even though the
Talmud States: Din of the County is Din. Thus you are damned if you do and
damned if you don’t at times. We unfortunately live in a generation that is
corrupt one way or the other. As it is written in Sotah 49B: “The truth is
absent!”
21 Thou
shalt not plant thee an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of the
LORD thy God, which thou shalt make thee. 22 Neither shalt thou set thee up a
pillar, which the LORD thy God hates.
One
cannot plant a tree on top of a mountain or in a barren area to be worshipped
or put up a pillar like Yacov Avinu did. In those day it was customary to
worship one’s god with a pillar and Yacov made one for HASHEM that was a
Kiddush HASHEM. But once the Torah was given, it became forbidden to do so.
This section dealt with a man or woman who encouraged others to worship other gods.
8 If
there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood,
between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, even matters of
controversy within thy gates; then shalt thou arise, and get thee up unto the
place which the LORD thy God shall choose. 9 And thou shall come unto the
priests the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days; and thou
shalt inquire; and they shall declare unto thee the sentence of judgment.
Sometimes
a Sanhedrin of 23 is not enough for a judgement. In a landmark case, one goes
to the great Sanhedrin for the final Psak.
… 12 And
the man that doeth presumptuously, in not hearkening unto the priest that stands
to minister there before the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man
shall die; and thou shalt exterminate the evil from Israel. 13 And all the
people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
This is
why besides the judges, guards or police were to be appointed to apply the law.
14 When
thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt
possess it, and shalt dwell therein; and shalt say: 'I will set a king over me,
like all the nations that are round about me'; 15 thou shalt in any wise set him
king over thee, whom the LORD thy God shall choose; one from among thy brethren
shalt thou set king over thee; thou may not put a foreigner over thee, who is
not thy brother.
This was
before HASHEM gave eternal kingship to David. David was wise and Shlomo wiser.
If one is from the seed of the David like the 8 year-old that became king, one
should have wise teachers and advisors to teach the king.
16 Only
he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to
Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses; forasmuch as the LORD hath
said unto you: 'Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.'
Everytime,
I read this, I remember the son of Saddam Hussein who was given an expensive
car as a bribe to get some project for Iraq. Shlomo multiplies horses and
managed them all right but when he multiplied wives beyond 18, he got himself
and his named stained for all eternity.
17
Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away;
neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
Horses,
stables, chariots, wives cost money plus silver and gold put a large tax burden
on the nation. Therefore it is up to the king to live as ruler of the people
but also think of the common people.
18 And
it shall be, when he sits upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write
him a copy of this law in a book, out of that which is before the priests the
Levites. 19 And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of
his life; that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of
this law and these statutes, to do them;
The
Rabbis interpret this as two Sifrei Torah. One for the Cohanim and Synagogue-
Mikdash, the other to be with the king like the nuclear suitcase to be used if
needed for helping in a judgement or understanding of the plain Pasuk.
20 that
his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from
the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left; to the end that he may
prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children, in the midst of Israel.
The king
is to be as straight as a ruler in judgement and use of public funds.
18: The chapter starts off with Teruma and Maaseh. The Leviim
shall be teachers in Torah among the nation.
9
When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt
not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. 10 There shall not be found among you any one that make
his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one that uses divination, a
soothsayer, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, 11 or a charmer, or one that consults a ghost or a familiar spirit, or a
necromancer. 12 For whosoever doeth these
things is an abomination unto the LORD; and because of these abominations the
LORD thy God is driving them out from before thee.
No séance or other
divination they are absolutely forbidden.
13
Thou shalt be whole-hearted with the LORD thy God. 14 For these nations, that thou art to dispossess,
hearken unto soothsayers, and unto diviners; but as for thee, the LORD thy God
hath not suffered thee so to do.
You are replacing
these nations, don’t make the mistakes they did that the land vomited them out.
15 A
prophet will the LORD thy God raise up unto thee, from the midst of thee, of
thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; 16 according to all that thou didst desire of the LORD
thy God in Horev in the day of the assembly, saying: 'Let me not hear again the
voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I
die not.' 17 And the LORD said unto me: …19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not
hearken unto My words which he shall speak in My name, I will require it of
him. 20 But the prophet, that shall speak
a word presumptuously in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or
that shall speak in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.'
The Rambam
explains how to see of a prophet is true or false. If he promises something bad
like Yona to Nineveh and the people repented and G-D repented from the
destruction, that is not a false prophet. However, if the prophet promises
something wonderful and it does not come true then he is false prophet.
21
And if thou say in thy heart: 'How shall we know the word which the LORD hath
not spoken?' 22 When a prophet speaks in
the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the
thing which the LORD hath not spoken; the prophet hath spoken it
presumptuously, thou shalt not be afraid of him.
Obviously if last
week the prophet said that the Moshiach would come by yesterday and he didn’t
come, the is false.
Moshe already set up on the other side of the Yarden three cities of refuge now Yehoshua was to set them up in Eretz Yisrael proper. They were for the accidental manslaughterer. In modern times it could be a person who drove along normally and hit a patch of black ice. However, if the person did not perform an annual check-up of his brakes and they failed he is tantamount to accidental homicide. Same with the example of the axe above for if the neighbor was in front of him instead of behind, he would have to warn the neighbor to stand clear lest the blade accidently fly off.
… 11 But if any man hates his neighbor, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and smite him mortally that he die; and he flee into one of these cities; 12 then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die. 13 Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the blood of the innocent from Israel, that it may go well with thee.
This example is first degree homicide or the pursuer of blood in a different Mitzvah.
14 Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor's landmark, which they of old time have set, in thine inheritance which thou shalt inherit, in the land that the LORD thy God gives thee to possess it.
Besides leading to land theft, this behavior ruins the décor of Eretz Yisrael. Remember the land was parceled out to tribes and within the tribes houses of fathers and then down to the level of cousins who entered the land. The original parceling was among close family. Fast forward many years and now a number of generations have passed the person is the 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th cousin and has perhaps nothing in common but the border between neighbors. He also might have competed against the neighbor in a growing contest or for the hand of some woman and may even against Vayikra 19 bear a grudge or seek vengeance. Therefore the Torah warns him not to remove the landmark.
15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinned; at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.
Rabbi Wein, who also has a law degree, explained this. However, it is a problem in our time. Often the police use “State’s witness” in modern law. Usually, it is a criminal who was under threat to snitch or make-up a snitch on somebody else. However, when former friends and confidants of a politician in numbers testify to many different things it appears to be where there is smoke there is fire. But according to the Torah, this would not be enough to convict the man/woman of anything. It is a wake-up call of the repeating testimony to perhaps search for a more honest leader. However, remember when Gideon was appointed Judge, he had been a leader of rouge characters and thrown away from his inheritance by spiteful greedy half-brothers.
16 If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to bear perverted witness against him; 17 then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days. 18 And the judges shall inquire diligently; and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother; 19 then shall ye do unto him, as he had purposed to do unto his brother; so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
You do unto him only after the sentence is passed including the death sentence.
20 And those that remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in the midst of thee. 21 And thine eye shall not pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
If you pity the cruel such as Amalek, Hamas, Hezballah, etc. eventually you will be cruel to merciful people (Am Yisrael).
20:1 When thou go forth to battle against thine enemies, and see horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, thou shalt not be afraid of them; for the LORD thy God is with thee, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. 2 And it shall be, when ye draw nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people, 3 and shall say unto them: 'Hear, O Israel, ye draw nigh this day unto battle against your enemies; let not your heart faint; fear not, nor be alarmed, neither be ye affrighted at them; 4 for the LORD your God is He that goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.'
One must have faith. Mishlei 9:10: The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the L-RD meaning fear HIM but not man. Mishlei was written for Am Yisrael not Hamas, Hezballah, Iran, Syria, Iraq, neo-Nazis etc. Tehillim 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me.
5 And the officers shall speak unto the people, saying: 'What man is there that hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it. 6 And what man is there that hath planted a vineyard, and hath not used the fruit thereof? let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man use the fruit thereof. 7 And what man is there that hath betrothed a wife, and hath not taken her? let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man take her.'
These are reasons for returning home from battle. However, if it is a Mitzvah war a person under the wedding canopy is called into battle. This happened to me a few months after marriage during the Shalom HaGalil reserve call-up. The Torah recognizes these exemptions are allowed for the person to return for his mind might be on the bride or the vineyard and not concentrate on the battle.
8 And the officers shall speak further unto the people, and they shall say: 'What man is there that is fearful and faint-hearted? let him go and return unto his house, lest his brethren's heart melt as his heart.'
This last reason is the main reason for once the army panics and flees not a strategic withdrawal the enemy can have a feast slaughtering the panicked soldiers. [True story of a strategic withdrawal and a Congressional Medal of Honor. My apology to the hero that I forgot his name. A paramedic in Viet Nam was on a mission with two soldiers and they accidently went into a nest of Viet Cong who were either there or had an ambush in mind. They killed one or two and the medic under-fire had to rescue a person who was shot. They withdrew carrying the wounded man and the medic was also wounded. He dressed his own wound and with the healthy soldier fought their way to the beach. They then jumped into the water with the wounded man swimming out to sea until the rescue boat could pick them up after a long time. All three lived! However, if they fled or panicked there might have been 3 less Americans and no descendants.
9 And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking unto the people, that captains of hosts shall be appointed at the head of the people. 10 When thou draw nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it.
You offer an opportunity for the residents of the city to surrender. You can let them go free or hold them for captives but they are alive. (Until the next Pasuk)
11 And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, that all the people that are found therein shall become tributary unto thee, and shall serve thee.
You now have a slave – servant class to do your bidding.
12 And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against thee, then thou shalt besiege it. 13 And when the LORD thy God delivers it into thy hand, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword; 14 but the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take for a prey unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine enemies, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.
This was standard procedure of war convention at the time.
15 Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.
These rules are for far off cities not from the 7 nations.
16 Howbeit of the cities of these peoples, that the LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breaths, 17 but thou shalt utterly destroy them: the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee; 18 that they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods, and so ye sin against the LORD your God.
Like Sodom they had sins that made them candidates for destruction.
19 When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by wielding an axe against them; for thou may eat of them, but thou shalt not cut them down; for is the tree of the field man, that it should be besieged of thee?
Trees that bear fruit shall not be cup down for an attack on a city.
20 Only the trees of which thou know that they are not trees for food, them thou may destroy and cut down, that thou may build bulwarks against the city that make war with thee, until it fall.
Trees used for wood or stoking fires can be used for this.
21:1 If one be found slain
in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the
field, and it be not known who hath smitten him; 2 then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and
they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain. 3 And it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto
the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd,
which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke. 4 And the elders of that city shall bring down the
heifer unto a rough valley, which may neither be plowed nor sown, and shall
break the heifer's neck there in the valley. … 8 Forgive, O LORD, Thy people Israel, whom Thou hast redeemed, and suffer
not innocent blood to remain in the midst of Thy people Israel.' And the blood
shall be forgiven them. 9 So shalt thou
put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that
which is right in the eyes of the LORD.
This
is called the Egel with the broken neck for the elders should have worried
about travelers entering or leaving their city and did not have sufficient safe
roads to protect them.
From
Monique The Insane Life of a Holocaust Survivor and Special Forces Veteran.
For most people, surviving the
Holocaust in Nazi-occupied Europe would be the defining moment of their lives.
Men like Maj. Gen. Sidney Shachnow aren't most people. The Lithuanian-born
Shachnow survived a forced labor camp and went on to join the U.S. Army, serve
in Vietnam, and lead the Army Special Forces' ultra-secret World War III
would-be suicide mission in Berlin during the Cold War.
He was only in his mid-50s when the
Berlin Wall came down. After almost 40 years in the U.S. Army, he was inducted
in the Infantry Officer's Hall of Fame and is still regarded as a Special
Forces legend. He passed away in his North Carolina home at age 83 on Sept. 18,
2018. His life and service are so legendary, inside and out of the Special
Forces community,
that it's worth another look.
Shachnow was born in Soviet
Lithuania in 1934. In 1941, an invasion from Nazi Germany overran the Red Army
in the opening stages of Operation Barbarossa. Initially greeted as liberators,
the Nazis soon began their policy of Lebensraum
– "living space" – to create room for German settlers to
populate areas of Eastern Europe that Hitler believed should be reserved for
the greater German Reich. This meant the people already living in those areas, which included Shachnow's native Lithuania, would have to be removed — either through physically removing them or extermination. The young Shachnow was not only a native Lithuanian, he was also from a Jewish family. He spent three years in the Kovno concentration camp. He survived where most of his extended family did not. When the Red Army liberated the camp, Shachnow fled West.
"After I finished that experience, I was very cynical about people,″ he told the Fayetteville Observer. "I didn't trust people. I thought that there is a dark side to people. If you leave things to people, they'll probably screw things up.″
He escaped his past life on foot, traveling across Europe, headed west across the then-burgeoning Iron Curtain, and eventually found himself in U.S.-occupied Nuremberg. There, he worked selling rare goods on the black market until he was able to get a visa to the United States.
By 1950, the young man obtained his visa and moved to the United States, eventually settling in Salem, Mass. to go to school. He was ultimately unsuccessful there because he could hardly speak English. The place he did find acceptance was in the U.S. Army. He enlisted and worked to receive his high school education as he quickly gained rank. After he made Sergeant First Class in the 4th Armored Division in 1960, he earned a commission as an Army infantry officer. In 1962, he joined the outfit where he would spend the next 32 years: The U.S. Army's Special Forces.
He put on his Green Beret just in time to serve in the Vietnam War. Assigned to Detachment A-121, he was at An-Long on Vietnam's Mekong River border with Cambodia. He served two tours in the country, earning a Silver Star and, after being wounded in an action against Communist troops, the Purple Heart.
While fighting in Vietnam, then-Capt. Shachnow was shot in the leg and arm. According to biographers, these both happened in a single action. He applied tourniquets to both wounds and continued fighting, trying to ensure all his men were well-led and came out alive. As he recovered from his wounds, he was sent home from his first tour, only to come down with both tuberculosis and Typhoid Fever. He recovered from those illnesses along with a few others.
After recovering from his wounds and illnesses, he returned to the United States, where he earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Nebraska and a promotion to Major. He was sent back to Vietnam, this time with the 101st Airborne, with whom he earned a second Silver Star.
In Vietnam he felt the very real heat of the Cold War against Communism but it would be his next assignment – on the front line of the Cold War – that would be his most memorable, most defining, most secret, and certainly the craziest. He was sent to a divided Berlin to command Detachment A, Berlin Brigade.
The unit's orders were to prepare to disrupt the Soviet Bloc forces from deep inside enemy territory in the event of World War III. It was a suicide mission and they all knew it. To a man, they carried out these orders anyway.
For 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for years on end, the men of Special Forces Detachment A Berlin squared off against foreign militaries, East German and Russian intelligence agencies, and other diplomatic issues. They wore civilian clothes and carried no real identification — the very definition of a "spook."
These men trained and prepared for global war every day of their service in Berlin. Capture meant torture and death, even in the daily routine of their regular jobs, and Sidney Shachnow was their leader. He was so successful that the reality of Det-A's mission didn't come to light until relatively recently in American history. When the Berlin Wall fell, he was the overall commander of all American forces in Berlin.
He was in command of the city at the heart of the country responsible for the deaths of his family members.
He died in the care of his wife Arlene at age 83 in Southern Pines, North Carolina. Gone, but not forgotten.
