Can someone please elaborate for me why it’s assur to recite the Targum Onkelos before learning the Chumash and Rashi?
I ask because I very often look at Onkelos while learning Chumash without necessarily looking at Rashi first. Am I transgressing some commandment that I am not aware of? Have I damned myself to an even lower circle of hell in the afterlife?
Seriously… I can’t fathom why this should be assur. I’m completely baffled.
