  [29] Surely place upon yourselves a king, when the Source repeated the verb it came to teach that the verb be done in any way and even each time (כל פעם). And thus, from what is written 'place upon yourselves' explain that if [he] dies place another instead, and since it returns secondly

  "You shall not see without...." (Deut 22:4), in parshat Mishpati the language if the verse describes a positive commandment and a negative commandment, as it teaches in the Mechilta:    "In Exodus it describes the donkey of someone whom you hate and here the donkey of your kinsman, becuase it is forbidden to hate him.  Rather it is only the yetzer hara that brings about hatred between them...
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Verse 1
  
  
  
  ...We have learned from that which it states, "and cast them away to another land," that the exile will be in this manner of casting out only until they reach the other land; but in the lands of the nations, it was only in the manner of of driving away... And there is a difference between "casting away" and "driving away" in three things: A) In that one who casts [something] away and throws [it] makes the thing distant from him; B) that by being cast away, the thing spoils; and C) he shows that he does not want to know where it lays. But one who drives [something] away needs to be close to the thing the whole time he is driving it away; and by driving it away, the thing does not spoil; and he knows the place of that thing. So it is possible to explain, "and you shall take it to heart amidst the various nations" - when you dwell among the nations, you shall put into your heart, "that which the Lord your God has driven you out" - that He has driven you out to a special place. It is like someone who drives something from one place to another until he finds a place where it can rest properly. And this is a proof that the eyes of the Lord your God are upon you for the good.

  And He will have mercy upon you: That He will give mercy towards you in the heart of the nations. And He will return and gather you from all of the nations: After the rehabilitation, He will return and gather you.
