VERSE: Nu03-38a
There is nothing troublesome with this verse. But Rashi uses
this verse to derive moral reasons and lessons.
Since it mentions the tribes that lived near Moses Rashi
observes that all of them prospered well-in fact they were
all known for their scholarship *1. Rashi therefore
concludes
'It is good to live near righteous people'.
NOTES
-----
*1 The 3 tribes that lived near Moses are the following
1a) YISSACHAR was known for its TEACHERS (1Ch12-33),
1b) ZEVULUN was known for its SCRIBES(Jud5-14),
1c) JUDAH was known for its LAWMAKERS (Gn49-10)
