אל המנוחה זו שילה נחלה זו ירושלי' למה חלקן כדי ליתן היתר בין זה לזה
Why does Scripture separate them?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Why is each enumerated separately?');"><sup>5</sup></span> In order to grant permission between one and the other.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For the text refers to the permissibility of bamoth at Gilgal, and teaches: until when may each man sacrifice what is 'right in his own eyes' (v. 8 - sc. at the bamoth) ? until you come to the rest, i.e., to Shiloh, and then bamoth will be forbidden. Now, if they were to remain permanently forbidden, Scripture need say nothing more. By adding 'and to the inheritance' it intimates that when they come to Jerusalem bamoth will again be forbidden, and thus implies that they were permitted between the destruction of the Tabernacle at Shiloh and the consecration of the Temple in Jerusalem.');"><sup>6</sup></span>
