### sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: In Leviticus God warns that he will punish Israel seven times over for its sins. In Deuteronomy the elders punish a husband who falsely accused his wife. Kings also chastised with whips, and Hosea speaks of God chastising peoples. Interpretation: The warning in Leviticus is called the Tochachah. It is read aloud quietly each year, and it is followed by promises of return. In the primary lessons: in fairy tales, a proud or cruel person is punished for bad behaviour
