Komentaryo sa Mga Bilang 32:34: Tze'enah Ure'enah & Rav Hirsch

“They built Dibon and Ataroth” [32:34]. They built the cities of Ataroth and Dibon. Our sages say that one should not think that one word in the Torah was written without purpose, heaven forbid, even the names of the cities, Ataroth and Dibon. They said that each Jew is responsible to read the weekly portion every week. What does this mean? First he should read the portion himself. Then he should read the Targum on that portion. The second time he should read it with the cantor in the synagogue. The sages said that one is even responsible to read the Targum of Ataroth and Dibon, when this is found in the portion.¹⁸B. Berakhot, 8a-b.

VV. 34-36. ויבנו וגו׳ את דיבון וגו׳ ערי מבצר וגו׳, sie bauten die Städte aus zu Festungen für ihre Frauen und Kinder und zu Hürden für ihre Herden.
