Torah Portion: Genesis 1:1-6:8 Bereishit (‘In the Beginning”), the first parashah in the annual Torah reading cycle, begins with God’s creation of the world. The first people, Adam and Eve, eat from the Tree of Knowledge and are banished from the Garden of Eden. Their elder son, Cain, kills their younger son, Abel, and Cain is destined to a life of wandering.

Were the six days really days? Or were they just periods of time? We use the word “day” in two different contexts. The first context is for the 24-hour period in which the Earth rotates to the same place facing the sun. The second context is for the daylight hours during that time period. So it may perhaps have yet another meaning for just a certain time period. Hence, the first “day” may have been mere micro-seconds of the creation of the Universe while the second day of chaos forming may have taken billions of years. Does a belief in religion and the story of Creation rule out acceptance of Science? The current theory of Create is the Big Bang Theory. Consider that the theory that the material Universe formed in an instant is fairly accurately described by the first chapter of Genesis. Judaism and science walk hand-in-hand.

Moshe Rabbeinu has just broken the tablets of the Ten Commandments after seeing some of the Israelites acceding to the mixed multitude that accompanied them out of Egypt is forming a Golden Calf after Moses didn’t come back down from the mountain at the time expected. Ascending again to receive the second tablets of the Ten Commandments, Moses seeks to understand more of who Hashem is. Hashem then passes before him and shows him the back of His “head". Hashem has Moses hide in the cleft of a rock since no mortal can see Hashem and live. Hashem then reveals his thirteen attributes. We now recite these before reading Torah on a day that is not Shabbat and days when we are asking for forgiveness.

Al ascender nuevamente para recibir las segundas tablas de los Diez Mandamientos, Moisés busca entender más sobre quién es Hashem. Hashem luego pasa delante de él y le muestra la parte de atrás de Su "cabeza". Hashem tiene a Moisés escondido en la hendidura de una roca ya que ningún mortal puede ver a Hashem y vivir. Hashem luego revela sus trece atributos. Ahora los recitamos antes de leer la Torá en un día que no es Shabat y en días en los que estamos pidiendo perdón.

Yom Kippur 2022 / יוֹם כִּפּוּר 5783 Day of Atonement ✡️ Yom Kippur for Hebrew Year 5783 begins at sundown on Tuesday, 4 October 2022 and ends at nightfall on Wednesday, 5 October 2022. https://youtu.be/FehJvrodX_8 Yom Kippur (Hebrew: יוֹם כִּפּוּר or יום הכיפורים), Also known as Day of Atonement, is the holiest day of the year for the Jews.

Yom Kippur / יוֹם כִּפּוּר Wednesday, 5 October 2022 / 10 Tishrei 5783 Torah Portion: Leviticus 16:1-34; Numbers 29:7-11 1: Leviticus 16:1-6 · 6 p’sukim · 2: Leviticus 16:7-11 · 5 p’sukim · 3: Leviticus 16:12-17 · 6 p’sukim · 4: Leviticus 16:18-24 · 7 p’sukim · 5: Leviticus 16:25-30 · 6 p’sukim · 6: Leviticus 16:31-34 · 4 p’sukim · maf: Numbers 29:7-11 · 5 p’sukim · Haftarah: Isaiah 57:14-58:14 · 22 p’sukim Our morning Torah reading describes the service of the Kohen Gadol/High Priest making atonement on behalf of Israel. The first service was performed by Aaron, brother of Moses, the fist High Priest. The service involved him changing into golden vestments and going into the Holy of Holies, the innermost sanctum of the Mishkan, the portable Tabernacle that was built what we were still in the desert. Two goats were taken and one was chosen as the sacrifice while the other was set off into the wilderness to “Azazel”. There is a lot of commentary as to what or even who Azazel is. Our interpretation comes from the two words that make up the word: “Oz” for strength and “El” for Hashem. Consider this as beseeching G-d to forgive our sins. There is a big difference between forgiving sins during this time and other times throughout the year: Intentional Sins can be forgiven with the right amount of sincere repentance. Even willful sinners can be forgiven. Today we have no Temple and do not do offerings. But we do Taschlich, a ceremony of casting breadcrumbs into a body of water, symbolic of casting away our sins as we observe Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur (Mincha, Traditional) / יוֹם כִּפּוּר מִנחָה Torah Portion: Leviticus 18:1-30 1: Leviticus 18:1-5 · 5 p’sukim · 2: Leviticus 18:6-21 · 16 p’sukim · 3: Leviticus 18:22-30 · 9 p’sukim · Haftarah: Jonah 1:1-4:11; Micah 7:18-20 · 51 p’sukim The afternoon reading is a list of forbidden relationships. A couple of reasons are given. During Yom Kippur we refrain from drinking and eating and forms of pleasure in order to prove to ourselves that we are capable of resisting the most intense temptations. So here we have warnings to continue striving for morality and ethical behavior, even in the face of the tempting activities. There is also the contrast between neighboring peoples who did not let morality interfere with their quest for pleasure. These peoples would also incorporate despicable acts into their worship. Thus are we led down the path of righteousness by expressing our human urges in socially acceptable ways. Yom Kippur 2022 / יוֹם כִּפּוּר 5783 Día de Expiación ✡️ Yom Kippur para el año hebreo 5783 comienza al atardecer del martes 4 de octubre de 2022 y termina al anochecer del miércoles 5 de octubre de 2022. https://youtu.be/FehJvrodX_8 Yom Kipur (en hebreo: יוֹם כִּפּוּר o יום הכיפורים), también conocido como Día de la Expiación, es el día más sagrado del año para los judíos. Sus temas centrales son la expiación y el arrepentimiento. Los judíos tradicionalmente observan este día sagrado con un período de 25 horas de ayuno y oración intensiva, a menudo pasando la mayor parte del día en los servicios de la sinagoga. Yom Kippur completa el período anual conocido en el judaísmo como los Grandes Días Sagrados (o, a veces, "los Días del Temor"). Yom Kipur / יוֹם כִּפּוּר miércoles, 5 octubre 2022 / 10 Tishrei 5783 Porción de la Torá: Levítico 16:1-34; Números 29:7-11 1: Levítico 16:1-6 · 6 p'sukim · 2: Levítico 16:7-11 · 5 p'sukim · 3: Levítico 16:12-17 · 6 p'sukim · 4: Levítico 16:18-24 · 7 p'sukim · 5: Levítico 16:25-30 · 6 p'sukim · 6: Levítico 16:31-34 · 4 p'sukim · maf: Números 29:7-11 · 5 p’sukim · Haftará: Isaías 57:14-58:14 · 22 p'sukim Nuestra lectura matutina de la Torá describe el servicio del Kohen Gadol/Sumo Sacerdote haciendo expiación en nombre de Israel. El primer servicio fue realizado por Aarón, hermano de Moisés, el primer Sumo Sacerdote. El servicio involucró que él se pusiera vestiduras doradas y entrara al Lugar Santísimo, el santuario más recóndito del Mishkán, el Tabernáculo portátil que fue construido en lo que todavía éramos en el desierto. Se tomaron dos machos cabríos y se eligió uno como sacrificio, mientras que el otro se envió al desierto a "Azazel". Hay muchos comentarios sobre qué o incluso quién es Azazel. Nuestra interpretación proviene de las dos palabras que componen la palabra: "Oz" para fuerza y ​​"El" para Hashem. Considere esto como una súplica a Di-s para que perdone nuestros pecados. Hay una gran diferencia entre perdonar los pecados durante este tiempo y otros momentos del año: los pecados intencionales se pueden perdonar con la cantidad correcta de arrepentimiento sincero. Incluso los pecadores voluntariosos pueden ser perdonados. Hoy no tenemos Templo y no hacemos ofrendas. Pero hacemos Taschlich, una ceremonia de arrojar migas de pan en un cuerpo de agua, símbolo de desechar nuestros pecados mientras observamos Rosh Hashaná y Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur (Minjá, tradicional) / יוֹם כִּפּוּר מִנחָה Porción de la Torá: Levítico 18:1-30 1: Levítico 18:1-5 · 5 p'sukim · 2: Levítico 18:6-21 · 16 p'sukim · 3: Levítico 18:22-30 · 9 p'sukim · Haftará: Jonás 1:1-4:11; Miqueas 7:18-20 · 51 p'sukim La lectura de la tarde es una lista de relaciones prohibidas. Se dan un par de razones. Durante Yom Kippur nos abstenemos de beber, comer y formas de placer para demostrarnos a nosotros mismos que somos capaces de resistir las tentaciones más intensas. Así que aquí tenemos advertencias para seguir luchando por la moralidad y el comportamiento ético, incluso frente a las actividades tentadoras. También existe el contraste entre los pueblos vecinos que no permitieron que la moral interfiriera en su búsqueda de placer. Estos pueblos también incorporarían actos despreciables a su culto. Así somos guiados por el camino de la rectitud al expresar nuestros impulsos humanos en formas socialmente aceptables.

Parashat Ha’Azinu 5783 / פָּרָשַׁת הַאֲזִינוּ 8 October 2022 / 13 Tishrei 5783 https://youtu.be/7UmfBT0YSlI Parashat Ha’Azinu is the 53rd weekly Torah portion in the annual Jewish cycle of Torah reading.

The very portion of the Torah, V’Zot Habracha, is read during Simchat Torah. It is structured as a poem as two columns. There is a purpose to this. The columns serve as a warning. As the two pillars are able to hold up a building, for example, for side-to-side there is no support, jJust as Samson was able to push two pillars apart and crush the Philistines. Israel must be careful. This must “give ear” to Hashem’s teachings and not stray side-to-side but stay straight. As we say “Yasher Ko’ah”—"may your strength be straight”—to congratulate someone completing a difficult reading or task, so must our strength be straight to avoid straying from Torah. When we settle the land and become prosperous, we must always remember it is because Hashem blesses us for observing mitzvot; if we stray and turn to other gods, prosperity will disappear. Just as Hashem is a “faithful G-d, never false”, so must we be faithful to Hashem’s ways and never be false.

Rosh Hashanah (Hebrew: ראש השנה), (literally “head of the year”), is the Jewish New Year. It is the first of the High Holidays or Yamim Noraim (“Days of Awe”), celebrated ten days before Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashanah is observed on the first two days of Tishrei, the seventh month of the Hebrew calendar. It is described in the Torah as יום תרועה (Yom Teruah, a day of sounding [the Shofar]). Rosh Hashana I / רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה א׳ Monday, 26 September 2022 / 1 Tishrei 5783 Torah Portion: Genesis 21:1-34; Numbers 29:1-6 1: Genesis 21:1-4 · 4 p’sukim · 2: Genesis 21:5-12 · 8 p’sukim · 3: Genesis 21:13-21 · 9 p’sukim · 4: Genesis 21:22-27 · 6 p’sukim · 5: Genesis 21:28-34 · 7 p’sukim · maf: Numbers 29:1-6 · 6 p’sukim · Haftarah: I Samuel 1:1-2:10 · 38 p’sukim Sarah conceived Isaac on Rosh Hashana and that is one of the reasons this portion is read. In fact, Hannah, too, conceived on Rosh Hashana as well and that is why that Haftarah was selected. Both these women’s prayers for a son were answered due to their merit and thus serve as role models for us to repent. Ishmael was jealous of Isaac and taunted him with dangerous acts. Sara had Abraham send them away so as not to endanger the young Isaac. When their water ran out, an angel showed them a well. It is said that this is because Ishmael repented for his mischievous deeds and was rewarded. Another reason why this is read on Rosh Hashana, that everyone can sincerely repent and be forgiven. Rosh Hashana II / רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה ב׳ Tuesday, 27 September 2022 / 2 Tishrei 5783 Torah Portion: Genesis 22:1-24; Numbers 29:1-6 1: Genesis 22:1-3 · 3 p’sukim · 2: Genesis 22:4-8 · 5 p’sukim · 3: Genesis 22:9-14 · 6 p’sukim · 4: Genesis 22:15-19 · 5 p’sukim · 5: Genesis 22:20-24 · 5 p’sukim · maf: Numbers 29:1-6 · 6 p’sukim · Haftarah: Jeremiah 31:1-19 · 19 p’sukim For the second day Torah reading, we read about the Akeidah. Akeidah means binding. Hashem appears to Abraham and commands him to sacrifice Isaac. Just as he is about to sley him, an angel stays his hand. Abraham then sees a ram caught in the thicket and offers up the ram. Rosh Hashana is described in Torah and Yom T’ruah, the day of hearing the horn. This is to honor that ram and awaken our souls to T’shuva, or return to Hashem’s Teaching. Hence this reading. Rosh Hashaná 2022 / רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה 5783 El año nuevo judío 🍏🍯 Rosh Hashaná para el año hebreo 5783 comienza al atardecer del domingo 25 de septiembre de 2022 y finaliza al anochecer del martes 27 de septiembre de 2022. Rosh Hashaná (hebreo: ראש השנה), (literalmente “cabeza del año”), es el Año Nuevo judío. Es la primera de las Altas Fiestas o Yamim Noraim (“Días de Temor”), celebrada diez días antes de Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashaná se observa en los dos primeros días de Tishrei, el séptimo mes del calendario hebreo. Se describe en la Torá como יום תרועה (Yom Teruah, un día de tocar [el Shofar]). Rosh Hashaná I / רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה א׳ Lunes, 26 Septiembre 2022 / 1 Tishrei 5783 Porción de la Torá: Génesis 21:1-34; Números 29:1-6 1: Génesis 21:1-4 · 4 p'sukim · 2: Génesis 21:5-12 · 8 p'sukim · 3: Génesis 21:13-21 · 9 p'sukim · 4: Génesis 21:22-27 · 6 p'sukim · 5: Génesis 21:28-34 · 7 p'sukim · maf: Números 29:1-6 · 6 p’sukim · Haftará: I Samuel 1:1-2:10 · 38 p'sukim Sara concibió a Isaac en Rosh Hashaná y esa es una de las razones por las que se lee esta porción. De hecho, Ana también concibió en Rosh Hashaná y por eso se seleccionó esa Haftará. Las oraciones de estas dos mujeres por un hijo fueron respondidas debido a su mérito y, por lo tanto, sirven como modelos a seguir para que nos arrepintamos. Ismael estaba celoso de Isaac y se burlaba de él con actos peligrosos. Sara hizo que Abraham los despidiera para no poner en peligro al joven Isaac. Cuando se les acabó el agua, un ángel les mostró un pozo. Se dice que esto se debe a que Ismael se arrepintió de sus malas acciones y fue recompensado. Otra razón por la que esto se lee en Rosh Hashaná es que todos pueden arrepentirse sinceramente y ser perdonados. Rosh Hashaná II / רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה ב׳ Martes, 27 Septiembre 2022 / 2 Tishrei 5783 Porción de la Torá: Génesis 22:1-24; Números 29:1-6 1: Génesis 22:1-3 · 3 p'sukim · 2: Génesis 22:4-8 · 5 p'sukim · 3: Génesis 22:9-14 · 6 p'sukim · 4: Génesis 22:15-19 · 5 p'sukim · 5: Génesis 22:20-24 · 5 p'sukim · maf: Números 29:1-6 · 6 p’sukim · Haftará: Jeremías 31:1-19 · 19 p'sukim Para la lectura de la Torá del segundo día, leemos sobre la Akeidah. Akeidah significa atar. Hashem se le aparece a Abraham y le ordena sacrificar a Isaac. Justo cuando está a punto de matarlo, un ángel detiene su mano. Abraham luego ve un carnero atrapado en la espesura y lo ofrece. Rosh Hashaná se describe en la Torá y Yom T'ruah, el día de escuchar el cuerno. Esto es para honrar a ese carnero y despertar nuestras almas a T'shuvá, o regresar a la Enseñanza de Hashem. De ahí esta lectura.

Torah Portion: Deuteronomy 31:1-31:30 Vayeilech (“He Went”) opens as Moses tells the Israelites that he will not lead them into the Land of Israel, and that Joshua will take over. He instructs the Israelites to gather and read Torah publicly every seven years. At God’s command, Moses writes a poem bearing witness to God’s covenant with the Israelites.

Hashem also publicly acknowledges as well. Moses’ legacy is to warn Israel that they are indeed a stiff-necked people. When they settle in the land and enjoy the prosperity that Hashem has granted them, they will forget from where their prosperity comes. They will start to explore pagan practices. Hashem will then hide from them. Isn’t this true of us? When we are struggling, we do what can to ensure our success, praying to G-d. Yet how soon we forget once we reach this success. We must always remember our covenant with Hashem through the good times and bad, through the struggles and success. Remember that prosperity is fleeting, but Hashem is not!

This corresponds to Parashat Vayeilech. Shabbat Shuvah (“Sabbath [of] Return” שבת שובה) refers to the Shabbat that occurs during the Ten Days of Repentance between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Only one Shabbat can occur between these dates. This Shabbat is named after the first word of the Haftarah (Hosea 14:2-10) and literally means “Return!” It is perhaps a play on, but not to be confused with, the word Teshuvah (the word for repentance). Parashat Vayeilech 5783 / פָּרָשַׁת וַיֵּלֶךְ 1 octubre 2022 / 6 Tishrei 5783 https://youtu.be/XFTl-Igw-Ws Parashat Vayeilech es la 52ª porción semanal de la Torá en el ciclo judío anual de lectura de la Torá. Porción de la Torá: Deuteronomio 31:1-31:30 Vayeilech ("Se fue") comienza cuando Moisés les dice a los israelitas que no los llevará a la Tierra de Israel y que Josué se hará cargo. Instruye a los israelitas a reunirse y leer la Torá en público cada siete años. Por mandato de Dios, Moisés escribe un poema que da testimonio del pacto de Dios con los israelitas. [1] Trienal año 3 1: 31:1-3 · 3 p'sukim · 2: 31:4-6 · 3 p'sukim · 3: 31:7-9 · 3 p'sukim · 4: 31:10-13 · 4 p'sukim · 5: 31:14-19 · 6 p'sukim · 6: 31:20-24 · 5 p'sukim · 7: 31:25-30 · 6 p'sukim · maf: 31:28-30 · 3 p'sukim · Haftará*: Oseas 14:2-10; Miqueas 7:18-20; Joel 2:15-27 · 25 p'sukim *Shabat Shuva Comentario y Divrei Torah Sefaria OU Torah Seminario Teológico Judío Soncino Chumash: págs. 887 - 891 Año Trienal 3 (Kriyah completo págs. 887 - 891) Artscroll Chumash: págs. 1094 - 1099 Año trienal 3 (Kriyah completa págs. 1094 - 1099) Etz Chaim Chumash: págs. 1173 - 1179 Año trienal 3 (Kriyah completa págs. 1173 - 1179) Durante este último día de la vida de Moisés, nombra desinteresadamente, a la vista de Israel, a Josué como su sucesor. Hashem también lo reconoce públicamente. El legado de Moisés es advertir a Israel que en verdad es un pueblo de dura cerviz. Cuando se asienten en la tierra y disfruten de la prosperidad que Hashem les ha concedido, olvidarán de dónde viene su prosperidad. Comenzarán a explorar prácticas paganas. Entonces Hashem se esconderá de ellos. ¿No es esto cierto de nosotros? Cuando estamos luchando, hacemos lo que podemos para asegurar nuestro éxito, orando a Di-s. Sin embargo, cuán pronto olvidamos una vez que alcanzamos este éxito. Siempre debemos recordar nuestro pacto con Hashem a través de los buenos y malos momentos, a través de las luchas y el éxito. ¡Recuerda que la prosperidad es pasajera, pero Hashem no! Shabat Shuva 2022 / שַׁבָּת שׁוּבָה 5783 Shabat que cae entre Rosh Hashaná y Yom Kippur (Shabat del Regreso) 🕍 Shabat Shuva para el año hebreo 5783 comienza al atardecer del viernes 30 de septiembre de 2022 y finaliza al anochecer del sábado 1 de octubre de 2022. Esto corresponde a Parashat Vayeilech. Shabat Shuvah (“Sábado [del] Retorno” שבת שובה) se refiere al Shabat que ocurre durante los Diez Días de Arrepentimiento entre Rosh Hashaná y Yom Kippur. Solo un Shabat puede ocurrir entre estas fechas. Este Shabat lleva el nombre de la primera palabra de la Haftará (Oseas 14:2-10) y literalmente significa "¡Regresa!" Es quizás un juego, pero no debe confundirse con la palabra Teshuvah (la palabra para arrepentimiento).

https://youtu.be/IWCQhNd8QK4 Parashat Nitzavim 5782 / פָּרָשַׁת נִצָּבִים 24 September 2022 / 28 Elul 5782 Parashat Nitzavim is the 51st weekly Torah portion in the annual Jewish cycle of Torah reading. Torah Portion: Deuteronomy 29:9-30:20 In Nitzavim (“Standing”), Moses addresses the Israelites, emphasizing the importance of following God’s covenant and of not worshiping other gods. He describes the process of repentance and returning to God, and stresses that God’s commandments are achievable and “not in the heavens.” [1] Triennial year 3 1: 29:9-11 · 3 p’sukim · 2: 29:12-14 · 3 p’sukim · 3: 29:15-28 · 14 p’sukim · 4: 30:1-6 · 6 p’sukim · 5: 30:7-10 · 4 p’sukim · 6: 30:11-14 · 4 p’sukim · 7: 30:15-20 · 6 p’sukim · maf: 30:15-20 · 6 p’sukim · Haftarah: Isaiah 61:10-63:9 · 23 p’sukim Commentary and Divrei Torah Sefaria OU Torah Jewish Theological Seminary Soncino Chumash: pp. 878 - 883 Triennial Year 3 (Full Kriyah pp. 878 - 883) Artscroll Chumash: pp. 1086 - 1093 Triennial Year 3 (Full Kriyah pp. 1086 - 1093) Etz Chaim Chumash: pp. 1165 - 1172 Triennial Year 3 (Full Kriyah pp. 1165 - 1172) As Moses says that he is standing there before all the Israelites, he repeats the concept of reward and punishment. As we have just finished hearing the Tohahah, Israel is exhorted not to follow other gods, thinking that they won’t be tempted by their immoral attitudes and lifestyle, stemming from pagan worship. No, they need to be resolute in following Torah. This is not only for those who stand there listening to Moshe Rabbeinu. This is also for all of us, standing here now in their future. As Nitzavim is our parashat right before Rosh Hashanah, we are implosed to return to Hashem, and that Hashem considers even the act of T’shuva a mitzvah in its own right. Parashat Nitzavim 5782 / פָּרָשַׁת נִצָּבִים 24 septiembre 2022 / 28 elul 5782 Parashat Nitzavim es la porción semanal número 51 de la Torá en el ciclo judío anual de lectura de la Torá. Porción de la Torá: Deuteronomio 29:9-30:20 En Nitzavim (“De pie”), Moisés se dirige a los israelitas, enfatizando la importancia de seguir el pacto de Dios y de no adorar a otros dioses. Describe el proceso de arrepentimiento y regreso a Dios, y enfatiza que los mandamientos de Dios son alcanzables y “no están en los cielos”. [1] Trienal año 3 1: 29:9-11 · 3 p'sukim · 2: 29:12-14 · 3 p'sukim · 3: 29:15-28 · 14 p'sukim · 4: 30:1-6 · 6 p'sukim · 5: 30:7-10 · 4 p'sukim · 6: 30:11-14 · 4 p'sukim · 7: 30:15-20 · 6 p'sukim · maf: 30:15-20 · 6 p'sukim · Haftará: Isaías 61:10-63:9 · 23 p'sukim Comentario y Divrei Torah Sefaria OU Torah Seminario Teológico Judío Soncino Chumash: págs. 878 - 883 Trienal Año 3 (Kriyah completo págs. 878 - 883) Artscroll Chumash: págs. 1086 - 1093 Año trienal 3 (Kriyah completa págs. 1086 - 1093) Etz Chaim Chumash: págs. 1165 - 1172 Año trienal 3 (Kriyah completa págs. 1165 - 1172) Cuando Moisés dice que está de pie ante todos los israelitas, repite el concepto de recompensa y castigo. Como acabamos de escuchar el Tohahah, se exhorta a Israel a no seguir a otros dioses, pensando que no serán tentados por sus actitudes y estilo de vida inmorales, derivados del culto pagano. No, necesitan estar decididos a seguir la Torá. Esto no es solo para aquellos que se paran allí escuchando a Moshe Rabbeinu. Esto también es para todos nosotros, parados aquí ahora en su futuro. Como Nitzavim es nuestra parashat justo antes de Rosh Hashaná, estamos implosados ​​de regresar a Hashem, y Hashem considera incluso el acto de Teshuvá como una mitzvá por derecho propio.
