                the Torah wanted to conclude with “your hand shall be the first against
                him to kill him,” that the mitzvah is for the enticed person to be the first               ,םדא םושל תולגלמ ןריהזי םא וליפא ןינעל הנימ

                teaches (Sanhedrin 85b) “a son may not act as the court’s agent to hit his
                father or curse him…except for a Meh’seet” as I wrote above.  Everything
                we have elaborated on regarding his other relatives applies even if he first                                םייחה רוקמ
