What are the ramifications of the B'ris that Yisrael entered into at Arvos Mo'av?
Rashi: They accepted upon themselves the Torah with a curse and an oath over and above the B'ris that they accepted upon themselves at Har Sinai.
B'rachos, 5a: The Torah writes "B'ris" in connection with Yisurim (the suffering of the Tochachah), and in connection with salt (in Vayikra, 2:13 - to teach us that, just as salt sweetens the meat, so too, do Yisurim cleanse (or sweeten) 1 a person's sins.
See Torah Temimah, note 55.
"Mil'vad ha'Beris asher Karas Itam be'Choreiv". What is "be'Choreiv" referring to?
Rashbam: It refers to the Tochachos in Bechukosai - at the end of which the Torah concludes "Eileh ha'Mitzvos asher Tzivah Hashem ? be'Har Sinai be'Yad Moshe" - and Har Sinai is synonymos with Har Choreiv.
Which respective eras do the B'risos here and in Bechukosai, cover?
Ramban: Refer to Vayikra, 2:11:7:1*.
