What is the question "ha'Yirtzeh Hashem b'Alfei Eilim"?

1.

Sha'arei Teshuvah 1:25: If I will give them for His many Chasadim ? will they be accepted?

2)

What is the significance of rams?

1.

Radak: They are the choicest meat to eat.

3)

How could one give tens of thousands of rivers of oil to Hashem?

1.

Rashi: They would be in Menachos. Radak ? this is an exaggeration, like "Naharei Nachalei Devash v'Chem'ah" (Iyov 20:17).

2.

Malbim: They are for Nesachim 1 of the Olos.


1

Nesachim are wine, but the Minchah that accompanies a Korban is called Minchas Nesachim. (PF)

4)

What is the meaning of "he'Eten Bechori Pish'i"?

1.

Rashi: Should I offer my Bechor as a Korban for my sin? Radak ? perhaps Menachos and animals do not suffice, only my dearest son ? my Bechor. I will offer him to atone for my sin.

2.

Sha'arei Teshuvah 1:25: I recognize that my sin is so great, that it would be proper to offer my Bechor for a Korban due to it.

5)

Why does it add "Pri Vitni [Chatas Nafshi]"?

1.

Radak: The matter is repeated in different words. Should I offer the fruit of my womb for the sin of my Nefesh?

2.

Radak citing Targum Yonasan: The dearest of my womb, i.e. the most beloved of my children.

3.

Sha'arei Teshuvah 1:25, Malbim: Chatas is less severe than Pesha (rebellion), therefore a lesser child suffices for it.
