P arshas Ki Sisa
“And He gave to Moshe when He finished speaking with him on Har Sinai the two Luchos…” (Shemos 31:18)
The Gemara in Nedarim (38a) tells us that Moshe kept learning Torah and forgetting it until Hashem gave him the Torah as a gift like a kallah to a chassan.
We say in Devarim (33:4): “Torah tzivah lanu Moshe morashah Kehillas Yaakov — the Torah that Moshe commanded us is a legacy for the Congregation of Yaakov.” The gemara in Berachos (57a) says “Don’t pronounce the word morashah — legacy rather morashah — engaged.”
Yeshayahu Hanavi (62:5) says “Like the rejoicing of a chassan over his kallah so your G-d should rejoice over you.”
