Weren’t they just supposed to findinformation and report back like tourists? How did they misunderstand what לתור , to explore, meant?The root ר . ו . ת first appeared last week in connection to the Aron, Ark of the Covenant, traveling a three daysjourney before the people to find ( )תור a safe place to rest (Bamidbar 10:33). In the third paragraph of Shma, foundat the end of this week’s parshah, we are told to wear tzitzit to remember the mitzvoth and not stray, ולא תתורו ,after our eyes and hearts that mislead us. When searching through the land of Israel, the spies were too deeplyengrossed in the physical details of their mission that they forgot about the miraculous divine assistance G-d hadbeen providing up until this point. They forgot about the miracles of leaving Egypt, of Luchot from Har Sinai in theAron, and how G-d change the seemingly impossible into reality before their very eyes. When reading the last paragraph of Shma or looking at the Tzitzit on a Tallit we are reminded that G-d is behind us no matter howchallenging things may seem at the moment.

Threewomen who eat a meal together may also perform a mezuman, if they choose. Women do not perform thespecial "minyan" mezuman even if ten women are present.Like men, women who eat with a group of three men are obligated to respond to the mezuman. The men arerequired to invite them to participate, and should wait if one of the women needs to step out briefly.In some communities, men leave the room when women perform a mezuman, but halachic authoritiesdisagree as to whether this is necessary. All agree that women and men are not counted together to reachthe threshold of three.(Berachot 45a-b and Tosafot "sha'ani"; Rosh Berachot 7:4; Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Berachot 5:7; ShulchanAruch Orach Chaim 199:6-7 and Biur haGRA there; Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 5:9:10; Halichot Beitah 12:7-8and footnote 14)
