There's a question that I always had that has to do with the Mabul that I would like to share with you, and if anybody has any ideas for a potential mehalech, please let me know.

So in the end of Parashat Bereshit, in Perek Hey, Pasuk Lamed Beis, Rashi asks a question.

Rashi's question is, why is it that everybody else starts having children at a hundred, but Noach has his children at five hundred? So Rashi, he's bringing, uh, a Midrash Rabba, and Rashi says, Rashi says as follows, "Am Rab Yudim," Rab Yudim says, "Ma Tam Kohador Is Chalidu L'Mei Hashana, V'Zeil Chamish Mei." Why is it that everybody else is having children at one hundred, and Noach is having children at age five hundred? "Am HaKadosh Baruch Hu," Hashem said, "Im Reshayim Heim," if the children of Noach are Reshayim, "Yehavdu Bamayim V'Rala Tzadik Zeh." They're gonna die in the Mabul, in the water, and it's gonna be bad for Noach, who's a Tzadik.

"Ve'Im Tzadikim Heim," and if Noach's children are Tzadikim, "Atshrich Alav," blast his teivah, his harbeh, I'm gonna be matshrich him, putting him out of his way to make many teivahs.

And I'm just gonna jump through because there's a few achronim that deal with this, this, this line.

They would have potentially saved their town because they would have been, uh, ten Tzadikim, and they would have saved their town.

The beginning of Parshas Ki Tzavai discusses the Mitzvot B'Kurim.

Mitzvot B'Kurim is when the Yidden settle the land of Eretz Yisrael and they start planting fruit.

The first of their fruit has to be brought to you, Shalim, to the Kayim in a basket and bring it to the Kayim and they say a special kriya.

We arrived, we came to the land that Hashem promised our forefathers that He would give us.

And it continues with a whole long kriya.

It speaks out a lot of the history, what happened to the Yidden from the times of the Avis to Yitzias Mitzrayim.
