So Rashi explains "Yis'u k'Sof v'Chinor v'Yismechu l'Kol Ugav" (Iyov 21:12). What forced him to say so? It seems that it is a musical instrument in Bereishis 4:21 "Tofes Kinor v'Ugav" and Tehilim 150:4 "Haleluhu b'Minim v'Ugav"! In the coming verse, Rashi (from Targum Yonasan) implies that Agavim are flutes! (PF)

What is "Vitz'am"?

1.

Rashi: Their theft. Malbim ? it would be proper that they fear Hashem. However, their hearts pursue their theft. Their mouths and hearts are far from Hashem. How will they come to deed [that Hashem desires] ? "b'Ficha uvi'Lvvaecha La'asoso" (Devarim 30:14)?
