    How come this parsha begins with the letter vav in 103 of the 112 verses?

    Because 112 – 103 = 9 which is the numbe rof shevatim present at Yosef’s mechira

    9 which is the numbe rof shevatim present at Yosef’s mechira

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

    cause the numerical value of vayaishev-each letter counted separately & zeros removed is gematria 12 for the 12 shevatim

    Nope it is a befreish Gimatriya!

    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?

    the snakes and scorpions were afraid of him….but the potential buyers weren’t????

    Goldilocks they were!

    Thats why they quickly sold him to the midyanim who in turn sold him to Potiphar
