''It Is Not In Heaven "
B’nai Yisrael forgot three thousand halachot during the
mourning period following Moshe’s passing. In light of
this loss, B’nai Yisrael said to Yehoshua:
“Ask for guidance
from Heaven, so that you will be able to re-learn all of the
forgotten halachot.”
Yehoshua replied:

Heaven [Devarim 30:12].)

study and interpretation of Torah by the Sages.
