V-7 Ki Thavo Honor Due

Ki Thavo opens with the dedication of first fruits. By offering the first fruits to the temple, they acknowledge the sovereignity o God and His goft of the land. Ki Thavo also contains the second Tochacha, series of curses, given to the Israelites. The first tochacha, spoken to the first generation after the debacle of the Spies, appears in Bechukotai, Leviticus 26:14-45. The parasha presents the natural progression of cause and effect through the way we deal with one another and our respect for the land and gifts that God has given us. Within the section is the Law of Ben Sorer, the wayward and rebellious son., emphasizing the integrity of society is based on the well-being of family relationships. At a glance, Ben Sorer seems brutal, but the negative mitzvot causes us to re-examine ourselves in the light of positive comandments and social action.
