How come this parsha begins with the letter vav in 103 of the 112 verses?
December 4, 2015 2:11 pm at 2:11 pm #1114957ubiquitinParticipantBecause 112 – 103 = 9 which is the numbe rof shevatim present at Yosef’s mechira

You could make a very strong argument that Yosef was present too….

December 4, 2015 8:06 pm at 8:06 pm #1114960Mashiach AgentMembercause the numerical value of vayaishev-each letter counted separately & zeros removed is gematria 12 for the 12 shevatim

Are you really trying to tell me that Yosef wasn’t present for any part of Mechiras Yosef?

I wasnt there.
But I assumed he wasnt there either. IT seems awkward to sell him with him standing right there. they sold him while still in the pit then pulled him out and handed him over.
And as I said I’m not telling you it is a gimatriya
PS are you really arguing over this?
You do know Im kidding right?

they pointed at him down in the pit, And said look how tough he is even the snakes and scorpions are afraid of him
December 6, 2015 2:02 am at 2:02 am #1114965☕️coffee addictParticipantOk, I concede
December 6, 2015 7:40 pm at 7:40 pm #1114966GoldilocksParticipantthe snakes and scorpions were afraid of him….but the potential buyers weren’t????
December 6, 2015 8:22 pm at 8:22 pm #1114967ubiquitinParticipantGoldilocks they were!
Thats why they quickly sold him to the midyanim who in turn sold him to Potiphar
