Naso 5782

Question: 6:21 what is the meaning of מלבד אשר תשיג ידו in relation to the קרבנות brought by the נזיר?


Approach: it would seem that there is some sort of expectation that the נזיר would have given extra, voluntary, קרבנות, as a thanks for having successfully completing his נזירות process. And this appears to be the reference above.

Question:  Why are מנשה counted before אפרים, in distinction to most of the rest of the time when the two are mentioned?

Alternatively, we can suggest that the wish to mention the בנות צלפחד - apart from being a preview of the upcoming subject - gave מנשה more importance.

Why are the punishments of bodily ailments split?

Question:  Why are the laws of בכור not written together with the other קרבנות rules earlier in the פרשה? Approach: The rule of בכור being only allowed to be eaten in המקום אשר יבחר ה' is mentioned in the earlier section. This section comes to teach us the rule of the בכור בעל מום, and the special leniencies that apply, allowing the animal to still be eaten - and anywhere. It thus could be viewed as similar to the released slave, who no longer is limited to his master's domain (the rules mentioned just before).
