Focus Questions on Rashi of the Week:
 Tzav


1.  What does Rashi mean by "this is not obligatory, but good manners"?

2.  Can you think of a reason why the Torah (i.e. Hashem) would not choose to make acts of 'good manners' obligatory?

3.  a) If this change of clothes is not obligatory, but rather an act of good manners, then why is it explicitly mentioned in the Torah?
      b) Does the very fact that it is mentioned in the Torah not now make it obligatory?

4.  Can you think of examples, from our own lives, of actions which are not obligatory but which are certainly acts of good manners?
