We asked the question, "what is so important about intending to do something, then telling someone you are going to do that something at a certain time, and you're running 10, 15 minutes late, not close to being on time?" So, for the sake of elucidating and simplifying, the first category of this week's portion of the Torah talks about the subject of making a vow. There are hundreds, if not thousands of pages of commentary concerning making a vow. So what's the big deal? People today say things all day long in such falsehood that if they knew what they were doing to their higher selves they would defecate bricks, or something to that effect. Lol Here's the simple answer:
You see (I'm hoping you can stay with me on this), each of us have many assistants in the ethereal! These assistants have a job to make sure that everything that happens to us happens within the time and space of our respective reincarnative contracts. So what am I talking about? Okay, let's use the example of four ladies meeting for lunch at Tavern on the Green in Central Park. One is coming from upstate New York. One is coming from Brooklyn. One is coming from the North Shore, and one from New Jersey. All are coming to meet at the restaurant in Central Park at 11:45 AM.
Each one of these ladies has to take a different mode of transportation and many things happen to each of us on our way to doing something. However the mode of transportation, whether we have to stop for gas, weather with taking a train, or whatever, we never know the people we will meet on the way to going somewhere. We think, while what a coincidence I haven't seen you in so long. When actually, our ethereal assistants have been working arduously to make sure we meet this certain person either on at the gas station or on the Long Island rail Road or on the subway or on the shuttle.
So, by the time these four ladies get to Tavern on the Green at 11:45 AM, each of them have a fantastic story to tell about how they got there. Now, when we're running 10 or 15 or 30 minutes later, our ethereal friends have not just double work, but triple work in trying to change all of the logistics that it would take to meet all these certain people in our lives, to happen at that moment, or any other particular moment.
Let's use our imagination and visualize what it would take if we're running 15 - 20 minutes late and they have already arranged for the meeting of what ever entities we're supposed to come across our path. Everything has to be reprogrammed. As they say in Hollywood, "show me this morning's rewrites"! Show me the rewrites for the next 90 minutes! I don't think we would want to be any of our ethereal helpers in trying to make the corrections that we create because we are running late. I am exhausted just trying to explain it to you! This is in real time!!
This is why it is so important to stick with what we say. I would love to get into the discussion of free choice versus predestination, but I don't have the time to write and you don't have the time to read the complete answer.

The next topic is strictly arithmetic/numerical/geometric. The amount of sentences in this portion of the Torah is 112.
In Kabbalah, this number represents an assemblage point of many different names of Hashem (the Name).
Elohim is 86 + the Tetragrammaton 26 = 112
Adonai is 65 +Tetragrammaton 26 + Ekyeh is 21 = 112
112 equals the word "Yabok", which is the river that Jacob had to cross to deal with that Angel all night long.
If you don't understand what I'm saying, that's okay too. The bottom line is to understand that the words we speak are a lot more important than we think they are! As a wise sage once said, "we are so concerned about what goes into our mouths, we should be more concerned about what comes out of our mouths"! Shabbat Shalom
