Two chapters in the Torah describe differently the burnt offering of pleasing odor presented to the LORD on the Feast of Weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to our chapter:<\/span><\/p>\n

“On the day of the first fruits, your Feast of Weeks\u2026 You shall present a burnt offering of pleasing odor to the LORD: <\/span>two bulls<\/b> of the herd, <\/span>one ram<\/b>, seven yearling lambs.” (Numbers 28:26-27)<\/span><\/p>\n

But according to another chapter:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou must count until the day after the seventh week\u2014fifty days; then\u2026 you shall present as burnt offerings to the LORD, seven yearling lambs without blemish, <\/span>one bull<\/b> of the herd, and <\/span>two rams<\/b>, with their meal offerings and libations, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to the LORD.\u201d (Leviticus 23:16-18)<\/span><\/p>\n

It seems that the Torah describes two different traditions concerning how to present a burnt offering on the Feast of Weeks. Both of the traditions agree on the needed number of lambs \u2013 seven, but they disagree on the required number of bulls and rams. In the Leviticus tradition, one bull is enough, but two rams are needed. In the Numbers tradition, one ram is enough, but two bulls are required.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whatever are the reasons for these two different traditions, the Torah was honest enough to describe both of them.<\/span><\/p>\n","image":{"ID":105101,"id":105101,"title":"-628cdaf622ba1--628cdaf622ba3ex29-sheep.png","filename":"628cdaf622ba1-628cdaf622ba3ex29-sheep.png.png","filesize":0,"url":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2018\/10\/628cdaf622ba1-628cdaf622ba3ex29-sheep.png.png","link":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/en\/what-is-the-greatest-principle-of-the-torah\/628cdaf622ba1-628cdaf622ba3ex29-sheep-png\/","alt":"","author":"7","description":"","caption":"","name":"628cdaf622ba1-628cdaf622ba3ex29-sheep-png","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":43040,"date":"2022-05-24
