The application of the Proshas Drochim's bnei noach/yisroel issue is fine, but to say that you need shishim ribo before mattan torah is stretching it.Eliezer Eisenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16036989084122930226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6453787673476195995.post-81391809161555668002015-01-04T00:03:11.316-06:002015-01-04T00:03:11.316-06:00one more maareh makom - the chasam sofer here: htt...one more maareh makom - the chasam sofer here: http://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=21622&st=&pgnum=104Tzvihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362895893167544658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6453787673476195995.post-92064010770125455682015-01-02T12:07:47.265-06:002015-01-02T12:07:47.265-06:00Thank you for the mareh makom to the Reb Meir Simc...Thank you for the mareh makom to the Reb Meir Simcha there- when I first read your comment, I didn't notice the address and looked at Vayechi, and of course it's not there. Anyway, it's a wonderful Medrash that K brings down, and the Reb Meir Simcha is good for this too. It wasn't a pashuteh massesh for Yosef. I'm putting them both into the post.Eliezer Eisenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16036989084122930226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6453787673476195995.post-19625774773494662722015-01-01T23:57:47.633-06:002015-01-01T23:57:47.633-06:00Beautiful pshat and emesdig.

The lashon of the Midrash is that he was הציץ בבור ולשם שמים נתכוין but it doesn't seem like they knew he made the brachah. If you have a moment take a look at the Meshech chochmah to 37:24 and Rav Kuppermans footnote, where he brings several girsaos of the midrash.Tzvihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362895893167544658noreply@blogger.com
