Torah Tidbits
Towards Better Davening and Torah Reading
The name of the sedra
MI (rhymes with tea) is WHO and HU is HE and HI (same as he) is SHE - remember this Hebrew-English ditty?
The confusion between HU and HI (i.e. masculine and feminine) in the Torah is confusing even only in Hebrew. And that’s because HU is spelled HEI-VAV- ALEF (close to 1500 times in Tanach) and HI is also spelled HEI-VAV-ALEF (quite often - about 200 times in Tanach to 300 for the HEI-YUD-ALEF spelling of HI). When the antecedent of HU or HI is right there before the pronoun, then whether it is a HU or a HI is easily knowable - assuming you know which words are masculine and which are feminine.
But sometimes the antecedent is much before the word and other closer candidates for antecedency confuse the issue.
Case in point: Vayikra 5:9 and 5:11.
... it is a CHATAT. What is a CHATAT? The HU at the end of the pasuk goes to the NISHAR (BADAM), the remainder of the blood. NISHAR is masculine - HU.
(and if the sinner cannot afford even two doves) ... then he shall bring as his sacrifice a tenth (of an eifa) of fine flour… What does the final word HI refer to? The word tenth - ASIRIT. Feminine, hence, HI. If a BK has not prepared the sedra well, he will hesitate and sometimes guess wrong on a HI/HU.
