Mishpatim Section

Structure of 16:18 – 18:22 a) 16:18 – 17:13 Judges except 16:21-17:7 Avodah Zara b) 17:14 – 17:20 Kings

למנות מלך: לכתחילה או בדיעבד? 1. ספר המצוות לרמב"ם מצות עשה קעג והמצוה הקע"ג היא שצונו למנות עלינו מלך מישראל יקבץ כל אומתינו וינהיגנו. והוא אמרו ית' (שם יז) שום תשים עליך מלך.

2. תוספתא מסכת סנהדרין פרק ד הלכה ה A. ר' יהודה אומ' שלש מצוות נצטוו ישראל בביאתן לארץ נצטוו למנות להן מלך ולבנות להן בית הבחירה ולהכרית זרעו של עמלק אם כן למה נענשו בימי שמואל אלא לפי שהקדימו עליהן B. ר' נהוראי אומ' לא נאמרה פרשה זו אלא מפני התרעומות שנ' ואמרת אשימה עלי מלך C. ר' אלעזר בר' יוסי אומ' זקנים שאלו כהלכה שנ' תנה לנו מלך לשפטינו אבל עמי הארץ חזרו וקילקלו שנ' והיינו גם אנחנו ככל הגוים ושפטנו מלכינו ויצ' לפ' ונלחם וגומ':

Tosefta Sanhedrin 4:5 A. Israel was commanded to implement three mizvot on their entry into the Land. They were commanded to appoint themselves a king, to build a sanctuary, and cut off the seed of Amalek. Such being the case why were they punished in the days of Samuel? Because their request was premature. B. R. Nehorai said: This chapter was only recorded in anticipation of their future murmurings, as it is written: “and they shall say, I will set a king over me.” C. R. Eliezer son of R. Yose said: The elders’ request was in order as it is written: “Give us a king to judge us,” but the common people added an improper rider, as it is said: “That we may be also like other nations.”

3. Abarbanel The Torah wishes to forecast how Bnei Yisrael would display their ingratitude for all the Divine help they had received, in facilitating their conquest and settlement of the land, by asking for a king. They did not make such a request because they stood in need of one, but simply to ape the practices of the surrounding nations. In fact, during the period of conquest and settling down, when it could be argued that a king was necessary to lead the people to battle and institute order, they did not make such a request. After they had settled down to an ordered existence, and a king was obviously no necessity, they asked for one reason only: “to be like all the nations that are about me.” In such an event, God commanded that they should not elect a king as they wanted, but “you shall set over yourselves a king whom God shall choose.” In short, the mizvah was merely a permissive one, not an absolute command. If you must have a king then this is how you must go about it…Once the people have given expression to this desire, unworthy as it is, it can be implemented, and, indeed must only be implemented, in the manner prescribed in the Torah, and in no other.

Rambam’s View On Magic רמב"ם משנה תורה הלכות עבודת כוכבים פרק יא הלכה טז ודברים האלו כולן דברי שקר וכזב הן והם שהטעו בהן עובדי כוכבים הקדמונים לגויי הארצות כדי שינהגו אחריהן, ואין ראוי לישראל שהם חכמים מחוכמים להמשך בהבלים אלו ולא להעלות על לב שיש תועלת בהן, שנאמר כי לא נחש ביעקב ולא קסם בישראל (במדבר כג:כג), ונאמר כי הגוים האלה אשר אתה יורש אותם אל מעוננים ואל קוסמים ישמעו ואתה לא כן וגו' (דברים יח: יד). כל המאמין בדברים האלו וכיוצא בהן ומחשב בלבו שהן אמת ודבר חכמה אבל התורה אסרתן אינן אלא מן הסכלים ומחסרי הדעת ובכלל הנשים והקטנים שאין דעתן שלימה, אבל בעלי החכמה ותמימי הדעת ידעו בראיות ברורות שכל אלו הדברים שאסרה תורה אינם דברי חכמה אלא תהו והבל שנמשכו בהן חסרי הדעת ונטשו כל דרכי האמת בגללן, ומפני זה אמרה תורה כשהזהירה על כל אלו ההבלים תמים תהיה עם ה' אלהיך (דברים יח;יג).

Rambam, Misheh Torah, Laws of Idolatry 11:16 These practices are all lies and falsehoods. The ancient pagans used them to mislead the ignorant masses into being guided by them. It is not fitting for Jews, as people of intelligence and intellect, to continue to subscribe to these vanities and to imagine that there is any benefit in them as it is stated, “For there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel.” And it is stated, “Those nations that you are about to dispossess do indeed resort to soothsayers and augers; to you, however, Hashem your God has not assigned the like.” All who give credence to any of these things and imagine that they are true but only forbidden by the Torah, are nothing but fools and weak-minded, or belong to the category of women and children whose understanding is imperfect. But scholars and enlightened thinkers are convinced that all these things prohibited by the Torah are not matters of wisdom, but mumbo-jumbo by which the gullible are misled, and for the sake of which they abandon always of truth. Therefore, the Torah, in admonishing to beware of these vanities, declares: You shall be whole-hearted with Hashem your God.”
