| Beruria | It doesn't say CHOTIM (sinners)
but rather CHOTOIM (sin) King David is not praying for the death of sinners, but for an end to the Evil Inclination that leads them into sin! and let the wicked be no more? But the end of present-day sinners does not ensure that future wicked men will not appear on the scene! CHATAIM refers not to sinners, but to that which causes sin - the Evil Inclination. |
