Question:
If the brothers and the grandfather are equal in their relationship to the deceased, why do we give the grandfather the larger share?

Answer:
Because he is the father, because he has the strength of fatherhood. We do not say that the brothers inherit with him, nor that he is the primary heir; the primary heir is the one who inherits, because he is the father. Yes.
