### sense in the lessons

Interpretation: "Tie them about thy neck" is read as the root of binding the commandments, as in tefillin and tzitzit. In the primary lessons: Maths: a thing counted or bought; tying ribbons (bows per gift is a rate); a game that ends equal, so one score gives the other. School: a school tie with the uniform. Everyday: tie a knot, tie up the boat, tie your hair back, tied up (busy).
