Why does the Torah here mention "Te'einah" before "Gefen", and reverse the order in Eikev Devarim, 8:8?
1.
Moshav Zekenim (citing Ramban) and Ba'al ha'Turim: In fact, the Torah always gives vines precedence. 1 The Torah gives figs precedence only here, after the Parshah of Parah Adumah since they used fig-tree wood to burn it. 2
1
Ba'al ha'Turim: See Michah, 4:4.
2
Ba'al ha'Turim: As the Mishnah states in Tamid, 2:5. See also Parah, 3:8.
2)
Why is the word ?Lamah He?elisunu? missing a ?Vav??
1.
Ba?al ha?Turim: Because their main complaint was against Moshe.
3)
What are the ramifications of the phrase "Lo M'kom Zera"?
