"400 years
And it's the same philosophy I've said it's 400 years..."
~Peter Tosh

This song is written by #PeterTosh but the video suggests that on this version, it is #BobMarley singing. However, after listening to this a number of times, I have come to the conclusion that it's actually Peter Tosh singing this, NOT Marley. Anyone else agree?

This week's #Torah #Kasha #Parsha #LechLecha #Judaism

In #yeshiva, I learned that promises of good or rewards in #Tanakh are guaranteed, but promises of punishments are not neccesary, they 're like warnings. So for example when #Hashem promises success through the #Navi, it's guaranteed, but if He promises #exile, it's possible to avoid it.

If so, then why did so many #Rishonim try to calculate the #400years of slavery? Why didn't they just say "The warning no longer applied after ~200 years"
