sense in the lessons
In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: In the verse the noise of the camp sounds like people shouting for victory or crying in defeat. Moses says it is neither but the sound of singing. Interpretation: Tradition says that the singing was a sign of the golden calf's worship. Joshua mistook it for war, but Moses knew it was a celebration of idols. In the primary lessons: a fight for power, such as two cocks struggling for rule of the farmyard; or a person's control over nature
