Summary Parsha Korah, detailed Parsha Chukkas, story and news including polling.

 

I received this in the mail. Although I am not a Chassid, I thought it would be nice to publish. For Israel is about to go through another costly election process and we may remain divided. We need more Mitzvos.

 

On the 28th anniversary of his passing (Shabbat, July 1-2), let's celebrate the Rebbe's vision. Let's honor his life's mission to bring goodness and kindness into this world. Let's do one more mitzvah, one more good deed, to make this world a better place.

 

 

For the Diaspora Parsha Korach

 

 

After the gluttony of the meals and the power continuation of the spies. You would think that the people would stop rebelling against Moshe and Aaron. But no, the ultrawealthy Korach is not satisfied with being a Levi and one of the richest men in Yisrael. No, he wanted leadership. From son after son, his father was older than Moshe’s father. So he wanted according to his reason the Kahuna and a socialist idea of all the Nation is holy. However, THE KING OF KINGS did not bless socialism.

 

Moshe tried to reason with him and the Bnei Reuven that were rebelling looked at distain at the third born Levi or Kingship at the 4th born Yehuda and they did not want to even listen or come before Moshe.

 

HASHEM makes a new form of death – the earth swallowing them alive. There is more of a rebellion and 14,000 die by the plague.

 

HASHEM decides to end the rebellions once and for all and every prince brings his staff into the Ark. Aaron’s sprouts flowers and almonds and this shows that he was chosen by G-D.

 

 

Parsha Chukkas

 

As for death and atonement/purification by the Red Heifer, it could have been given anytime but for sure after this, 38 years fly by and Miriam, Aaron and Moshe are exceedingly old.

 

19.1  And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying: 2 This is the statute of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying: Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer, faultless, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke. 

 

All hairs have to be red and not two black hairs.

 

3 And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, and she shall be brought forth without the camp, and she shall be slain before his face. 

 

Because Aaron is not mentioned perhaps this was given after Rosh Chodesh Menachem Av 2487, the day of his death? Or perhaps this was while he was alive as the Cohain dealing with the Parah Aduma becomes Tumay and the Cohain Gadol during his tenure should not become Tumay.

 

4 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood toward the front of the tent of meeting seven times. 

 

Towards but does not say on.

 

Rashi:  Toward the front of the Tent of Meeting: [In later generations, when this rite will be performed outside the Temple in Jerusalem,] he is to stand to the east of Jerusalem and to direct his gaze toward the entrance to the Temple while sprinkling the blood. — [Sifrei Chukkas 14]

 

5 And the heifer shall be burnt in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall be burnt. 

 

Everything is burnt completely except the sprinkled blood.

 

6 And the priest shall take cedar-wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer. 

 

Wood, Marjoram and scarlet thread is thrown on the fire by the Cohain.

 

7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he may come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the even. 

 

Enter the camp: The camp of the Divine Presence, because no ritually unclean person is banished from two camps, except one who experienced a flow, one who experienced a seminal emission, or one afflicted with tzaraas. [Hence, he is admitted to the one camp from which he was banished.] - [Pes. 67a] And the kohen shall be unclean until evening: Transpose it [the verse] and explain it [thus]: He shall be unclean until evening, and then he may enter the camp.

 

8 And he that burns her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even. 

 

He has to bathe in a Mikvah and wash his clothing.

 

9 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of sprinkling; it is a purification from sin. 

 

He is clean and processes the ashes but he becomes temporally ritually impure.

 

10 And he that gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even; and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourns among them, for a statute forever. 

 

This is one of the mysteries of G-D the impure become pure and the pure become temporally impure.

 

11 He that touches the dead, even any man's dead body, shall be unclean seven days; 12 the same shall purify himself therewith on the third day and on the seventh day, and he shall be clean; but if he doesn’t purify himself the third day and the seventh day, he shall not be clean. 

 

He/she has to bathe in living water mikveh such as a spring or mikveh on the side of a river on the 3rd and 7th day and some sprinkles of ashes are there.

 

13 Whosoever touches the dead, even the body of any man that is dead, and purifies not himself--he has defiled the tabernacle of the LORD--that soul shall be cut off from Israel; because the water of sprinkling was not dashed against him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him. 

 

However, if the Moshiach would come within 7 days of Pesach and tell us to make a Korban we could do so and let pure Cohanim take care of the Korban.

 

14 This is the law: when a man dies in a tent, every one that comes into the tent, and everything that is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days. 

 

The Rabbis use this to tell us that if one wants to became a Chacham he must learn until he drops like a dead man. Oy, how many times I have fallen asleep at the computer listening to the Daf Yomi and writing my Drasha. Of course, the Pshat is as stated in the Pasuk and one becomes unclean 7 days.

 

15 And every open vessel, which hath no covering close-bound upon it, is unclean. 

 

Any open vessel in the area where the body is under a roof has been overshadowed by Tuma of a Meys (corpse uncleanliness).

 

16 And whosoever in the open field touches one that is slain with a sword, or one that dies of himself, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days. 17 And for the unclean they shall take of the ashes of the burning of the purification from sin, and running water shall be put thereto in a vessel. 18 And a clean person shall take hyssop, and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it upon the tent, and upon all the vessels, and upon the persons that were there, and upon him that touched the bone, or the slain, or the dead, or the grave. 19 And the clean person shall sprinkle upon the unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day; and on the seventh day he shall purify him; and he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and shall be clean at even. 

 

The fact that a body, bone or body part (such as in a terror attack not upon us) is outside one still because Tumay if he touches it, or he/she overshadows it.

 

20 But the man that shall be unclean, and shall not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly, because he hath defiled the sanctuary of the LORD; the water of sprinkling hath not been dashed against him: he is unclean. 

 

A person that can purify himself must do so. In any event, he/she cannot be in the assembly until undergoing purification as mentioned above.

 

21 And it shall be a perpetual statute unto them; and he that sprinkles the water of sprinkling shall wash his clothes; and he that touches the water of sprinkling shall be unclean until even. 22 And whatsoever the unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the soul that touches him shall be unclean until even. 20:1 And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month; and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there. 

 

Today this is close or on the border of the modern Egypt south of Sde Boker. It is a flat plain desert area but one can did water in wells and Bedouin graze their flocks and herds there today.

 

2 And there was no water for the congregation; and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. 

 

From here comes the legend of Miriam’s well that moved with her in the desert until she died.

 

3 And the people strove with Moses, and spoke, saying: 'Would that we had perished when our brethren perished before the LORD! 4 And why have ye brought the assembly of the LORD into this wilderness, to die there, we and our cattle? 5 And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink.' 

 

I am sitting back judging these complainers after I had a few cups of coffee today. I wonder how I would have been with my faith if I was that thirsty – generation of miracles or not. The second half of the story is the people telling Moshe that he was a great politician promising things but not delivering on his promises. They did not look at their generation or the previous complainers in the mirror.

 

6 And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tent of meeting, and fell upon their faces; and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them. 

 

Another rebellion but this time because of lack of water. They did not put their faith on miracles and Chashgacha.

 

7 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 8 'Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes, that it give forth its water; and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock; so thou shalt give the congregation and their cattle drink.' 

 

Unlike the previous case 39 years ago, this time he would only have to speak to the rock.

 

9 And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as He commanded him. 10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said unto them: 'Hear now, ye rebels; are we to bring you forth water out of this rock?' 11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and smote the rock with his rod twice; and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their cattle. 

 

Instead of talking to the rock and perhaps coaxing it (as the Medrash says it started to trickle and he should have spoken more – the heat of the passion of the people got him to hit the rock).

 

12 And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron: 'Because ye believed not in Me, to sanctify Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.' 13 These are the waters of Meribah, where the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and He was sanctified in them. 

 

He made a half-baked Kiddush HASHEM and was punished for it as talking to the rock would have been much more powerful.

 

14 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto the king of Edom: 'Thus saith thy brother Israel: Thou know all the travail that hath befallen us; 15 how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and our fathers; 16 and when we cried unto the LORD, He heard our voice, and sent an angel, and brought us forth out of Egypt; and, behold, we are in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of thy border. 17 Let us pass, I pray thee, through thy land; we will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink of the water of the wells; we will go along the king's highway, we will not turn aside to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed thy border.' 

 

He was hoping that they would be brotherly and treat the Bnei Yisrael as family. Instead they came out ready for war. Don’t worry the plot of history will end with Yisrael going to Har Tzion to Judge Har Esav and ON THAT DAY THE L-RD SHALL BE ONE AND HIS NAME ONE.

 

18 And Edom said unto him: 'Thou shalt not pass through me, lest I come out with the sword against thee.' 19 And the children of Israel said unto him: 'We will go up by the highway; and if we drink of thy water, I and my cattle, then will I give the price thereof; let me only pass through on my feet; there is no hurt.' 20 And he said: 'Thou shalt not pass through.' And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand. 21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border; wherefore Israel turned away from him.

 

So for the sake of peace and memory of Yitzchak, Yisrael did not Judge Esav.

 

22 And they journeyed from Kadesh; and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came unto mount Hor. 23 And the LORD spoke unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying: 24 'Aaron shall be gathered unto his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against My word at the waters of Meribah. 25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up unto mount Hor. 26 And strip Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there.' 27 And Moses did as the LORD commanded; and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation. 28 And Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount; and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mount. 

 

The Zohar tells how Aaron undressed with the help of Moshe and Eleazar the watched his son be crowned Cohain Gadol. He then lay down of a flat stone in a cave and as they left the cave he stopped breathing by a ‘kiss from HASHEM’. Moshe asked to die that way too. They then sealed the mouth of the cave in such a way that they did not become Tumay.

 

29 And when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.

 

Although my merit of Miriam, they had water, for Aaron they wept as he worked on Shalom Beis between husband and wife. Many of the children were born from such couples that did not divorce and had peace at home.

 

21:1 And the Canaanite, the king of Arad, who dwelt in the South, heard tell that Israel came by the way of Atharim; and he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive. 2 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said: 'If Thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.' 3 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities; and the name of the place was called Hormah. 

 

The King of Arad was the guardian of Canaan and also from Amalek – the Medrash. He was on the heights and attacked them down below. However, HASHEM listened to the prayers and Am Yisrael prevailed and even knocked out their fort. It is called Tel Arad today a couple miles west of the modern town of Arad. It had ample water, stores of grain etc. Yet is was taken easily either because they were defeated outside the town/city or the Bnei Yisrael managed to scale the wall or destroy the gates quickly.

 

4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way. 5 And the people spoke against God, and against Moses: 'Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathed this light bread.' 6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died. 

 

The deserts around Israel have lizards, snakes and scorpions. Usually, they are few and far between but this rebellion started with water and continued onward in this later generation that did not see what happened to Korach or did and forgot. Because they spoke with fire/venom on their tongues they got hit by venom.

 

7 And the people came to Moses, and said: 'We have sinned, because we have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that He take away the serpents from us.' And Moses prayed for the people. 8 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole; and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.' 9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it upon the pole; and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked unto the serpent of brass, he lived. 

 

He had to look heavenly up at the pole. It has now been adopted as the symbol of doctors and first aid.

 

10 And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in Oboth. 11 And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ije-abarim, in the wilderness which is in front of Moab, toward the sun-rising. 12 From thence they journeyed, and pitched in the valley of Zered. 13 From thence they journeyed, and pitched on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that cometh out of the border of the Amorites.--For Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites; 14 wherefore it is said in the book of the Wars of the LORD: Vaheb in Suphah, and the valleys of Arnon, 15 And the slope of the valleys that inclines toward the seat of Ar, and leans upon the border of Moab.-- 16 And from thence to Beer; that is the well whereof the LORD said unto Moses: 'Gather the people together, and I will give them water.' 

 

This is on the eastern side of the Yarden emptying into the Dead Sea. Today it is called Wadi Mujib and the River of Arnon. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uMx3f_xdgHA/U2ytpADjMhI/AAAAAAAABgs/xkqutEIKn3o/s1600/Slide22.JPG

17 Then sang Israel this song: Spring up, O well--sing ye unto it-- 18 The well, which the princes dugged, which the nobles of the people delved, with the sceptre, and with their staves. And from the wilderness to Mattanah; 19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel to Bamoth; 20 and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the field of Moab, by the top of Pisgah, which looks down upon the desert. 

 

This song may have been before or after Balak.

 

21 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying: 22 'Let me pass through thy land; we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells; we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed thy border.' 23 And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel. 24 And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon unto the Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong. 25 And Israel took all these cities; and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the towns thereof. 26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even unto the Arnon. 27 Wherefore they that speak in parables say: Come ye to Heshbon! let the city of Sihon be built and established! 28 For a fire is gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it hath devoured Ar of Moab, the lords of the high places of Arnon. 29 Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh; he hath given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, unto Sihon king of the Amorites. 30 We have shot at them--Heshbon is perished--even unto Dibon, and we have laid waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba. 31 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites. 32 And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they took the towns thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there. 33 And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan; and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei. 34 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Fear him not; for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.' 35 So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him remaining; and they possessed his land. 22:1 And the children of Israel journeyed, and pitched in the plains of Moab beyond the Jordan at Jericho.

 

There is a lot of Zohar and Medrash on these battles with Sihon and Og. These were the fighters that protected Canaan on the eastern front and Syria from the South. You can read this in English in a number of Libraries. One need not look for the deeper meaning the Pshat of the battles is very nice. The people are just about ready to enter the land and pass over the Yarden into the Yericho area. But Moav and Midian in the area have a nasty surprise for Yisrael and their fate will not be pleasant.

 

 

This Shabbos is my 75th Hebrew Birthday and 28th Yahrzeit of the Rebbe

A Timely Delivery by Rabbi Yerachmiel Tilles

http://ascentofsafed.com/Stories/Stories/5782/1281-43.html

 

 

An American Jew, before immigrating to Israel, went one Sunday to 770 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, to receive a blessing from the Lubavitcher Rebbe. The Rebbe blessed him and handed him two dollars, saying, "One for you, the second for the taxi driver."

 

The man was somewhat amazed by the second dollar and the Rebbe's instruction. Still, he saved both dollars in his wallet, and when he arrived in Israel with his family, he thought about giving the dollar to the taxi driver who drove them from the airport to the Absorption Center, where they would stay until they found their own place. However, realizing that the driver was pre-occupied and visibly nervous, the man judged that the Rebbe did not mean this driver.

 

There were other taxis over the years, of course, but none of the drivers seemed to fit the bill. And so, the dollar remained in his wallet. For twenty years!

 

One day, not long ago, our now "veteran" immigrant was riding in a taxi in the Tel Aviv area. He saw that the driver did not wear a skullcap, but had a book of Psalms near his seat and had pasted on the gear stick a picture of the Lubavitcher Rebbe.


They started talking. The driver told him that in recent months he had decided to try and strengthen himself to be more in harmony with his Jewish roots, and as a result, he was now studying Torah regularly at the Chabad Center in his neighborhood.


"Finally!" the man thought excitedly to himself, suddenly recalling the "mission" the Rebbe had delegated to him. He took out his wallet from his pocket and said to the driver, "Here; take this, please. It is a dollar the Rebbe told me to give to 'the taxi driver'."


The driver stamped on the brakes! The cab suddenly swerved sideways, fortunately stopping safely at the side of the road.

 

The driver turned to the startled passenger and said excitedly: "Do you know what you did? Since I started my return to Torah and mitzvot, it has been difficult for me at home. My wife is not agreeable at all.

 

"Today she challenged me again. 'What are all these ridiculous beliefs you've adopted? For example, you actually think it makes sense for the Rebbe to send you a dollar for a blessing? The Rebbe is gone! Let's see him send you a dollar today!'"

 

The passenger now understood what was the Rebbe's intention by "the taxi driver," twenty years earlier.

Connection: This Shabbat is the 3rd of the Jewish month of Tammuz, the 28th yahrzeit of the Lubavitcher Rebbe.

Biographical note: Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher Rebbe: [11 Nissan 5662 - 3 Tammuz 5754 (April 1902 - June 1994 C.E.)], became the seventh Rebbe of the Chabad dynasty after his father-in-law's passing on 10 Shvat 5710 (1950 C.E.). He is widely acknowledged as the greatest Jewish leader of the second half of the 20th century. Although a dominant scholar in both the revealed and hidden aspects of Torah and fluent in many languages and scientific subjects, the Rebbe is best known for his extraordinary love and concern for every Jew on the planet. His emissaries around the globe dedicated to strengthening Judaism number in the thousands. Hundreds of volumes of his teachings have been printed, as well as dozens of English renditions.
