YEHUDA FIRST Once we skip Gad, Reuven is followed by Yehuda - the first of the tribes to successfully conquer their portion of land, as detailed both in Sefer Yehoshua (chapters 14->15) and in Sefer Shoftim (1:1-15).
Towards that purpose, God separated the entire shevet of Levi to serve in the bet ha-mikdash and to teach Torah to Bnei Yisrael; and hence, this responsibility is considered their nachala.

In all of these situations, whether Levi is the agent of the donor Reuven, or the donee Shimon, depends upon the language employed by Reuven.
Reuven may revoke the gift until the deed is written, because he intends the act of acquisition for Shimon to be by the deed that is to be delivered to Levi and Yehuda, and this cannot occur before the deed is in existence.
Reuven states to Levi and Yehuda, "Write a deed of gift to Shimon for my field and bring the deed to Shimon." The deed takes effect when it is delivered to Shimon, and Reuven may revoke the gift up until that time.

 Reeling: the Movie Review Show's review of Yossi & Jagger
Levi's Jagger has a rock star mystique (hence his nickname) and a playful outlook that strike sparks of two different kinds with Yossi.
Levi gambols about, changing lyrics to popular songs towards gay double entendres, a habit that amuses Yossi in private but makes him scowl in public (writer Bernheimer sprinkles those double entendres around his script in unintentional situations as well).
The relationship between Yossi (Ohad Knoller) and Jagger (Yahuda Levi), two young officers in the Israeli Army, is natural and almost innocent – especially when contrasted with the lecherous just-sex relationship that their commander has with his femme assistant, Goldie (Hani Furstenberg).

Secret lovers Yossi and Jagger (Ohad Knoller and Yehudi Levi), desperate for time alone, embark on a "mission'' into the wilderness, and director Fox exploits the winter backdrop for a lustrous, truly romantic love scene.
Levi brings an impish charm to Jagger, but the character (nicknamed after the rock star) is more described than he is played.
Levi is a big soap star in Israel, so maybe his character's charms could be assumed when the film played in his home country.

Shimon must notify Reuven that Levi or Yehuda is suing to seize the property purchased by Shimon and if Shimon loses the property to Levi or Yehuda, that Shimon will sue Reuven on the warranty that Reuven gave to Shimon.
Levi sues, or threatens to sue, Shimon to recover the property on the grounds that it really belonged to him and not to Reuven.
Levi pleads that Reuven has no standing in Beth Din since he will in no event be liable even if Levi prevails in his lawsuit against Shimon since Reuven disclaimed any warranty to Shimon against the loss of the property.

 Yossi & Jagger (2002)
Yossi (Ohad Knoller), the group's commander, is a seemingly humorless bulldog of a leader; a badass who obviously is born for the job.
Jagger (Yehuda Levi) is his second-in-command, a good soldier who takes his repsonsibilities seriously.
When the two men don their guns to trudge across the snow to survey a remote area, you think, well, this will be a typical military drama with some added repression.

In our day, Islamic terrorists and politicians — sometimes one and the same — have caused such great havoc against the Jewish state that Israeli leaders are willing to pacify them, handing them an important portion of the Jewish homeland that has belonged to the Jews since Samson toppled the Philistines.

However, when R' Yehuda tried to determine the length of time between day and night, he assumed the astronomy of the sages of Israel.
Clearly, R' Yehuda was basing his calculations according to an understanding that Rebbe attested is incorrect.
In Shabbat 34b, R' Yehuda is quoted as saying that bein hashmashot, the period of twilight between night and day, is the time equivalent of three quarters of a mil.

 Yossi & Jagger
They navigate between their military duty and secret affection amidst a ragtag bunker of starry-eyed young recruits stuck at the frontlines of a battlefield, each preoccupied with dreams, torn between patriotism and personal desires.
Yossi (Ohad Knoller) and Jagger (Yehuda Levi) are Israeli soldiers somewhere on the Lebanese border, and as the film opens they’re digging a hole while pulling rank and alpha male swagger with the other soldiers.
It’s easy to see why at home Levi is referred to as Israel’s answer to Tom Cruise, since he dominates the film even when he’s not onscreen, boyishly handsome and dreamily optimistic in a near hopeless place.

to the Torah); the first one is given to a kohen (descending from Ahron), the second to a levi (descending from the biblical Levi), and the third to a yisrael (descending from Israel or Ya’akov).
While a kohen has precedence in many areas, it is usually the case that he may yield the honor to a yisrael who is more learned.
If there is a kohen who is in the middle of saying the Shema, he may not interrupt that prayer to take an aliya, even if he is the only kohen in the shul.

JUST about the only thing more difficult than being gay in the Israeli army would be to be stationed at a tiny mountain outpost with your gay lover, who's also your commander.
Yossi (Ohad Knoller) and Jagger (Yehuda Levi, "the Israeli Tom Cruise") manage to keep their relationship a secret, even while going off to make-out sessions in the snow.
The young lovers' sexual persuasion is so hush-hush that a female soldier thinks she has a good chance of getting Jagger between the sheets.

Indeed, their conduct at that point was of a 'military' nature.] Whereas all other tribes earned their "nachala", a specific, designated portion of land, shevet Levi was scattered among the various tribes in order to serve as teachers throughout the country (note Devarim 18:1-2, "Hashem hu nachlatam"!).
This principle (of geographical order) explains why Binyamin precedes Yosef, for his nachala is located north of Yehuda, but south of Efraim.

From the verses it is not clear what the role of the tribe of Levi is: on the one hand, the tribe of Levi is included among those who declare the blessings, but on the other hand, it is they who enumerate the categories of the "cursed."
According to R. Eliezer and R. Yoshia, the tribe of Levi was divided into two groups (with opinions divided as to the criteria for the division), while Rabbi maintains that all the Levites actually stood down below.
Concerning the role of the tribe of Levi, even if we accept the opinions of R. Eliezer or R. Yoshia – which are closer to our understanding of the literal text in Sefer Yehoshua – we must still ask why our parasha makes no mention of this division.
