Lecture given on a bus. Mishna Avos(6:3)-ein kavod ela torah shene'emar etc. Midrash- kavod refers to monetary possessions. Contradiction? Gra- when written in the torah chaser- kavd, it refers to money, but when written maleh-kavod, it refers to torah. A whole sefer was written on the drashos learned from the difference betwen words written maleh and words written chaser. Can a tevul yom sprinkle the para aduma water on a tameh person? One should strive to be like Hashem, but not to act exactly like Hashem.King david learned two things from Achitofel, and he called him rebbi etc,kal vechomer... Sometimes one halacha taught impacts ones understanding on hundreds of different halachos.
