Parsha Naso Part I, no rest for a Rabbi, Shabbos laws and a hero story, news

 I am bringing the following to your attention. Two people on my Prayer list Rabbi Paley and the Paratroop Officer were injured on Pesach close to 7 full weeks of prayers for their recovery if you want to continue praying please go ahead but they are not in life threatening situations any more. Avraham Noach ben Yehudit, Nadav Chaim ben Iris Chaya

 

Instead add Natan Chaim ben Emunah.

 

 

Reminder: Before Shavuos make an Eruv Tavshillin. The Blessing is in the Siddur/Machzor usually before Candle Lighting. The Eruv consists of bread and something like a tuna can, hardboiled egg and put together in or outside the refrigerator and it permits us to light Shabbos Candles and cook for Shabbos if necessary. We also say for all the people of the city in case a neighbor forgets. Prior to Pesach I mentioned all over the net but failed to mention in the Blogspot as in Israel no Eruv was needed from Chol HaMoed to Shabbos.

 

 

Parsha Naso Part I

 

 

We ended our Parsha last week with only the Levi work of Kohath being mentioned. Why not the other two sections of the Tribe of Levi in the Parsha? Why must Naso be the longest Parsha may they should have been included with Kohath?

 

I discussed this with my son, Chaim, who remembered from the Art Scroll that the Ohr HaChaim HaKadosh had discussed this question. According to him, Aaron HaCohain was from Kohath and therefore they were included together.

 

Our Parsha continues with the work of the Leviim deal with a Sotah, Nazir and the gifts of the Princes.

 

4:21 And the LORD spoke unto Moses saying: 22 'Take the sum of the sons of Gershon also, by their fathers' houses, by their families; 23 from thirty years old and upward until fifty years old shalt thou number them: all that enter in to wait upon the service, to do service in the tent of meeting. 24 This is the service of the families of the Gershonites, in serving and in bearing burdens: 25 they shall bear the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tent of meeting, its covering, and the covering of sealskin that is above upon it, and the screen for the door of the tent of meeting; 26 and the hangings of the court, and the screen for the door of the gate of the court, which is by the tabernacle and by the altar round about, and their cords, and all the instruments of their service, and whatsoever there may be to do with them, therein shall they serve. 27 At the commandment of Aaron and his sons shall be all the service of the sons of the Gershonites, in all their burden, and in all their service; and ye shall appoint unto them in charge all their burden. 28 This is the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonites in the tent of meeting; and their charge shall be under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 

 

Ithamar was in charge of the packing and reassembling of the curtains.

 

29 As for the sons of Merari, thou shalt number them by their families, by their fathers' houses; 30 from thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old shalt thou number them, every one that enters upon the service, to do the work of the tent of meeting. 31 And this is the charge of their burden, according to all their service in the tent of meeting: the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars thereof, and the pillars thereof, and the sockets thereof; 32 and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, even all their appurtenance, and all that pertains to their service; and by name ye shall appoint the instruments of the charge of their burden. 33 This is the service of the families of the sons of Merari, according to all their service, in the tent of meeting, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.' 

 

Here too, Ithamar was in charge of the packing and reassembling of the boards.

 

34 And Moses and Aaron and the princes of the congregation numbered the sons of the Kohathites by their families, and by their fathers' houses, 35 from thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entered upon the service, for service in the tent of meeting. 36 And those that were numbered of them by their families were two thousand seven hundred and fifty. 37 These are they that were numbered of the families of the Kohathites, of all that did serve in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses. 

 

As mentioned a Levi had to have a maximum strength and lifting capacity and stamina.

 

38 And those that were numbered of the sons of Gershon, by their families, and by their fathers' houses, 39 from thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entered upon the service, for service in the tent of meeting, 40 even those that were numbered of them, by their families, by their fathers' houses, were two thousand and six hundred and thirty. 41 These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Gershon, of all that did serve in the tent of meeting, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of the LORD. 42 And those that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, by their families, by their fathers' houses, 43 from thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entered upon the service, for service in the tent of meeting, 44 even those that were numbered of them by their families, were three thousand and two hundred. 

 

Both Gerson and Merari had similar numbers compared to Kohath but since Kohath was similar in population to the others it is only the reason of touching and moving the holiest of items that could give him Kares they were given a special blessing not to be cut off.

 

45 These are they that were numbered of the families of the sons of Merari, whom Moses and Aaron numbered according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses. 46 All those that were numbered of the Levites, whom Moses and Aaron and the princes of Israel numbered, by their families, and by their fathers' houses, 47 from thirty years old and upward even unto fifty years old, every one that entered in to do the work of service, and the work of bearing burdens in the tent of meeting, 48 even those that were numbered of them, were eight thousand and five hundred and fourscore. 49 According to the commandment of the LORD they were appointed by the hand of Moses, everyone to his service, and to his burden; they were also numbered, as the LORD commanded Moses.

 

As I mentioned before each and every righteous person is a treasure before HASHEM and that is why there is numbering.

 

5:1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 2 'Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is unclean by the dead; 3 both male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their camp, in the midst whereof I dwell.' 4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp; as the LORD spoke unto Moses, so did the children of Israel. 

 

They have done nothing back. They have lost a close relative or in-law. Since they have been in contact with the dead, they have to be outside of the camp.

 

8 But if the man have no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made shall be the LORD'S, even the priest's; besides the ram of the atonement, whereby atonement shall be made for him. 9 And every heave-offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present unto the priest, shall be his. 10 And every man's hallowed things shall be his: whatsoever any man gives the priest, it shall be his. 

 

The Cohain gets edible parts from the Korbanos.

 

11 and the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: If any man's wife go aside, and act unfaithfully against him, 

 

It starts out innocently enough. At first the man and woman talk to each other. It could be business like she selling him a chicken or milk in the market a few times a week or in the same car pool.

 

13 and a man lie with her carnally, and it be hidden from the eyes of her husband, she being defiled secretly, and there be no witness against her, neither she be taken in the act; 

 

This is full adultery. In the Pasuk before, I gave an example. Of course, there are loose men or women. I have heard stories of women taking a bus to the end of the line and using the driver to supply the needs they have as their husbands have had not communications with them.

 

14 and the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled; or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled; 

 

The Torah is implying that the woman was unfaithful either the husband heard or saw that every morning she talks to this Don Juan fellow or starts secluding with him long enough for a hug and kiss or longer.

15 then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is a meal-offering of jealousy, a meal-offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance. 16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD. 

 

At first, the Cohanim scare her into confessing or refusing to drink.

 

17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water. 18 And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and put the meal-offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal-offering of jealousy; and the priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that causes the curse. 19 And the priest shall cause her to swear, and shall say unto the woman: 'If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness, being under thy husband, be thou free from this water of bitterness that causes the curse; 

 

According to the Sages even have a son born within the coming year.

 

20 but if thou hast gone aside, being under thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee besides thy husband-- 21 then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman--the LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to fall away, and thy belly to swell; 22 and this water that causes the curse shall go into thy bowels, and make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to fall away'; and the woman shall say: 'Amen, Amen.' 

 

At this stage in the process, the woman can regret and receive a divorce. Some women were turned off by the jealous husband some were scared by the Cohanim and their Beis Din. This was the point of no return. Once a woman agrees to drink and says Amen V’ Amen the script is written and erased by water. The ink did have traces of cyanide in it. Still the story of the Chida I brought down years ago, he just read her the Pasuk and as she left his house died on the street. According to the tradition as she dies so dies the adulterer who did not have traces of cyanide in his drink.

 

23 And the priest shall write these curses in a scroll, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness. 24 And he shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causes the curse; and the water that causes the curse shall enter into her and become bitter. 25 And the priest shall take the meal-offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the meal-offering before the LORD, and bring it unto the altar. 26 And the priest shall take a handful of the meal-offering, as the memorial-part thereof, and make it smoke upon the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water. 27 And when he hath made her drink the water, then it shall come to pass, if she be defiled, and have acted unfaithfully against her husband, that the water that causes the curse shall enter into her and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall fall away; and the woman shall be a curse among her people. 

 

As the woman was tested, she had her hair uncovered and was in front of the nation bare from the waist upwards. This was done to disgrace her and discourage women watching not to think of committing adultery.

 

28 And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be cleared, and shall conceive seed. 29 This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goes aside, and is defiled; 30 or when the spirit of jealousy comes upon a man, and he be jealous over his wife; then shall he set the woman before the LORD, and the priest shall execute upon her all this law. 31 And the man shall be clear from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity.

 

Why is the husband cleared for being jealous? He was cleared because she was talking with a rogue Don Juan.

 

The following is a true story: It once happened that a man built his house to live in and sublet apartments. He had next to it another plot of land. Since he was working certain hours, he put his wife in charge of the building to check on that the Arab workers were not slacking on the job or sabotaging. The object was to have more apartments to rent out. She spoke Arabic and one could see her sitting down chatting with them on their break.

 

Time went by and the wife ran off with one of the Arabs to Haifa where he lived.

 

6.1And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When either man or woman shall clearly utter a vow, the vow of a Nazirite, to consecrate himself unto the LORD, 3 he shall abstain from wine and strong drink: he shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat fresh grapes or dried. 

 

The reason being next to Sotah is that if one saw the woman who was suspected of adultery especially not dressed from the waist upwards and not get bad thoughts he would remain sober by not drinking wine.

 

4 All the days of his Naziriteship shall he eat nothing that is made of the grape-vine, from the pressed grapes even to the grapestone. 5 All the days of his vow of Naziriteship there shall no razor come upon his head; until the days be fulfilled, in which he consecrated himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, he shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow long. 

 

The minimum amount of time is 30 full days. Only from the 31st day could he bring his Korban.

 

6 All the days that he consecrated himself unto the LORD he shall not come near to a dead body. 7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die; because his consecration unto God is upon his head. 8 All the days of his Naziriteship he is holy unto the LORD. 

 

The exception was a Nazir for life like Shimshon but a temporary one was forbidden to be near a dead body.

 

9 And if any man die very suddenly beside him, and he defile his consecrated head, then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall he shave it. 10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tent of meeting. 

 

He was on the way with a Jew who suddenly died and then this man became a Meys Mitzvah.

 

11 And the priest shall prepare one for a sin-offering, and the other for a burnt-offering, and make atonement for him, for that he sinned by reason of the dead; and he shall hallow his head that same day. 12 And he shall consecrate unto the LORD the days of his Naziriteship, and shall bring a he-lamb of the first year for a guilt-offering; but the former days shall be void, because his consecration was defiled. 

 

The man gets a Mitzvah for burying the dead Israelite but has to start his Nazirship over again.

 

13 And this is the law of the Nazirite, when the days of his consecration are fulfilled: he shall bring it unto the door of the tent of meeting; 14 and he shall present his offering unto the LORD, one he-lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt-offering, and one ewe-lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin-offering, and one ram without blemish for peace-offerings, 15 and a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers spread with oil, and their meal-offering, and their drink-offerings. 16 And the priest shall bring them before the LORD, and shall offer his sin-offering, and his burnt-offering. 17 And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto the LORD, with the basket of unleavened bread; the priest shall offer also the meal-offering thereof, and the drink-offering thereof. 18 And the Nazirite shall shave his consecrated head at the door of the tent of meeting, and shall take the hair of his consecrated head, and put it on the fire which is under the sacrifice of peace-offerings. 19 And the priest shall take the shoulder of the ram when it is sodden, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them upon the hands of the Nazirite, after he hath shaven his consecrated head. 20 And the priest shall wave them for a wave-offering before the LORD; this is holy for the priest, together with the breast of waving and the thigh of heaving; and after that the Nazirite may drink wine. 21 This is the law of the Nazirite who vows, and of his offering unto the LORD for his Naziriteship, beside that for which his means suffice; according to his vow which he vows, so he must do after the law of his Naziriteship. 

 

To be a Nazir was not a normal case and it was done sometimes for piety but many times for being sort of holier than thou. Shimon HaTzadik, Cohain Gadol, and leader of the great Sanhedrin only ate from one Korban of a Shepherd boy who became a Nazir for a pure reason. Thus, the Sages frowned on those who became a Nazir and preferred one to refrain from wine and strong drink without the Nazirship.

 

22 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 23 'Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying: On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel; ye shall say unto them:  24 The LORD bless thee, and keep thee;  25 The LORD make His face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee; 26 The LORD lift up His countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.  27 So shall they put My name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.'

 

The Cohanic Blessing said twice daily at the end of the Kiras Shema and once after the blessings of Torah on Shabbos and Yom Tov also in the Musaf Prayer and Yom Kippur in the Ne’ilah Prayer.  To be continued.

 

 

Rabbis have no rest in this world and the Shabbos Problem.

 

 

Oh-Ho and I thought I was about to take a vacation. But despite medical insurance in the States and Israel, my wife wanted me to have trip including flight insurance. That is when the trouble started. It seems that before the pace-maker, the doctor wrote in my file that I was forbidden to fly. So, the day before the flight via the secretary, I had to barge my way into see the Cardiologist for a note saying something like according to Peter Pan and Dumbo, Rachamim Pauli can fly.

 

Finally, the morning of the flight I got insurance paying a bit more than my wife.

 

Because of the pacemaker, I asked for a wheel chair. In Israel they identified my security threat risk asked me questions about my pacemaker and let me through. In the US I asked for a pat down and I was subject to one but the next TSA man asked if I was over 75 and just an explosive on hands test.  

 

Last year’s trip before Pesach had found a broken-down heater-air conditioner unit. So, when I returned after a year, I expected a completely functioning unit. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Water from the humidity in Florida had clogged up our unit and again the a/c was not working but the technician came within a few hours vacuumed out the water made sure it was draining and everything was back on schedule or so I thought.

 

Then the refrigerator made noises and did not produce ice cubes. After owning the apartment 13years I had a choice of $150 technician call and a repair for a refrigeration in my possession already 19years. I decided to get a new one. Then came a whole new bunch of problems my fight with AI and then a slow thinker in India about getting a technician as the new refrigerator did not really have a cold freezer or making ice during the first 24hours.

 

There was an option to return the refrigerator and replacement on the day I was leaving FL. In the meantime, the ice machine started working and the ice cream re-solidified. So I cancelled the replacement.

 

Everything was fine, I had a way of turning off the interior light for Shabbos and was all into enjoying a Shabbos rest with the new refrigerator. Ha-Ha the joke’s on me. In Israel all the refrigerators come with a Shabbos mode. Not so in the States.

 

My wife open’s up the refrigerator on Shabbos and after 2 seconds a little red light goes on saying ‘Door Open”. At a certain point the refrigerator will close by itself which is my Koach’s Koach and I don’t do anything. [This is the general principle of disabled carts and telephones-computers for doctors. The strength of one’s strength opens up the circuit. The question is if the time-delay relay opening up the “Door Open” is Koach of my Koach or not.] I have not called up the technologist in Israel yet but I was sort of up the creek without a paddle and would need a Shabbos Clock to work with to open and close the door in the future at certain times.

 

It was still Shabbos and my food and drinks are in the refrigerator. What am I to do? Well there is a book written by the late Rabbi Shlomo Goren about Shabbos for soldiers in the field. It does not work on L’ Hachila (to start off situations with) but B’ De’eved (but in a temporary or field emergency). The principle of Melacha and Kares or death by stoning is that one person does the whole Melacha or completes the Melacha. (Tractate Shabbos starts the first Mishnah with the poor man and the house owner where one does no Melacha and the other completes a Melacha. What happens with the law of hunting on Shabbos or Yom Tov? A deer enters one’s house. The man did nothing but when he came into the house he blocks the escape of the deer. He can participate with a young man to stand with each other or another by the open door and essentially capture the deer even though the door is open.

 

Now what is Rabbi and Rebbetzin Pauli going to do on Shabbos? The answer is less than a full Melacha. As with the case of a deer, when Shabbos started the religious soldiers with their mess-tin did not want to carry them on Shabbos. (The rifle can be carried as a Suffix Pikuach Nefesh.) But who said a soldier eating is Pikuach Nefesh? So, what is done? The soldier carries with another soldier the mess tin. Therefore, on the count of three, the Paulis opened up the door with each doing less than a Melacha. The door was then put in a position where it closes itself automatically. As I wrote this was a surprise ‘emergency’ situation and not for a weekly basis or on my next planned solo trip to the States. That would require a Shabbos clock with times to open the door.

 

Shabbos afternoon I posed a question to our Minyan. I got back a few answers like oops you should have bought a Shabbos Refrigerator aka one with a Shabbos Mode. But then there was Rabbi Mendel or Mendy Schwartz Shlita who uses a Shabbos clock. One man suggested finding a spot for a magnet on the door.

 

But wait the AI-India contacted a technician. Two days before flying out to see my son, I got a call. Tomorrow the technician is coming. Since the Fridge was working except for Shabbos Mode I did not need a Technician.

 

The next day, I get a call your technician, Jesus, (he was Spanish Hez-zus) and a person with the name of a murdered Rabbi of 2000 years ago by the Romans could he help on Shabbos? Maybe a Tikkun for the followers who picked grain on Shabbos?

 

Well there was no Shabbos Mode for my model. However, there was a technical solution to the light. By taping a medium sized magnet on the freezer door just where the is a light that says change water filter on the side, the ‘Door Open’ light is neutralized.

 

I ended up my trip not guarding my diet. I did not gain more than a few hundred grams but, with the rich US prepared foods and my granddaughter’s birthday cake, I did not could not would not lose.

 

 

From Eli Y. Yom Kippur War Hero

 

 

When asked by one Jerusalem rabbi, to which righteous graves does he recommend going? For the IDF fallen soldiers in Mount Herzl.

Colonel Avraham (my father) Lenir, the most senior Israeli pilot ever to fall captive, returned to Israel with marks of severe torture on June 9, 1974. Electrocution, dislocated fingernails and crushed bones. Apparently Nir knew critical secrets to the security of the country of Iran & Israel. Iran under the Shah.

When it became known about his fall into captivity, the top of the security experienced it. There are claims that Israel agreed to even withdraw from the Hermon Ridge in order to get the pilot commander back, as part of a prisoner exchange deal that he will include without the Syrians realizing what treasure fell into their hands. But they understood, and tortured him insanely. My father, who knew that confinement of secrets would mean a dramatic damage to @TAG's security, simply didn't talk.

How do you know?

A top official said if Lenir had spoken, israel would have felt the consequences well and strongly.

Another pilot who was chased, was probably the last to have a word with him through the prison sections. Lenir told him that he was hurt in a very bad situation.

This wonderful man, only 33 years old, died in the harshest and cruel way for the sake of his nation. israel Alone, in the foreign hands of a terrible enemy.

Lieutenant Colonel Avi Lenir is buried in Division 4 in Mount Herzl.

Mayor Moshe Fadlon, isn't it appropriate to commemorate him? My name is Lanir.
