Moshe Deutsch asks:
The Gemara calculates Yaakov age at certain events in his life and everything is fine and I understand it
However, the Bach says that Yaakov was 75 not 77 as our Girsa in the gemoro says.
I cannot understand the Bach. I have looked all over and no one talks about this.
Could you explain the Girsas Habach to me?
Thank You, Moshe Deutsch
The Kollel replies:
Shalom Rav,
The Hagahos v'Tziyunim in the new printings of the Gemara (which you presumably don't have) points out that this Bach is a printing error.
B'Virchas Kol Tuv,
