  • Emor Kohanim – Agents of God Or Man?
    Emor Kohanim – Agents of God or Man? -Rabbi Moshe Pinchuk- Parahsat Emor is rife with questions. The Talmud lists eight passages that were related to Moshe upon the consecration of the Tabernacle, on the first of the month of Nissan. The appropriate place for these passages is in the parasha of Shemini, which opens with the dedication of the Tabernacle: “Eight sections were given forth on the day on which the Tabernacle was set up. They are: the section of the priests, the section of the Levites, the section of the ritually unclean, the section of the sending of the ritually unclean [out of the camp], the section commencing ‘After the death’…” Several of these passages are set forth in this week’s parasha, Emor: A. The section of the priests (kohanim): Rashi makes the following comment: “The section of the priests – “Speak to the kohanim,” which contains the laws of the kohanim. Because these laws were required that day in order for the kohanim to work in the Tabernacle, it was necessary for Hashem to convey them at that time.” According to Rashi, the “section of the priests” mentioned in the Talmud is the passage comprised of the first several verses of Parashat Emor. These verses set forth prohibitions relating to priestly ritual uncleanliness and marriage, as well as physical defects that disqualify a priest from working in the Tabernacle and the Temple. Why was this passage relocated from the parasha of Shemini to the beginning of Emor? B. The section of the ritually unclean: This section is identified as the passage beginning with the words “that they shall separate themselves from the holy [sacrifices] of the children of Israel.” This passage sets forth the laws of ritual cleanliness that pertain to the consumption of terumah (priestly contributions) and kodashim (holy sacrifices).

  • Parsha Summary for Parshas Tetzaveh the Judaism Site
    Torah.org Parsha Summary for Parshas Tetzaveh The Judaism Site https://torah.org/torah-portion/parsha-summary-tetzaveh-3/ PARSHA SUMMARY FOR PARSHAS TETZAVEH by Rabbi Aron Tendler Note: The Shabbos Torah Reading is divided into 7 sections. Each section is called an Aliya [literally: Go up] since for each Aliya, one person "goes up" to make a bracha [blessing] on the Torah Reading. The following Aliya summary will list the numerous laws detailed in Parshas Mishpatim. A total of 53 Mitzvot are commanded. 1st Aliya: The Parsha opens with the commandment to use pure olive oil in lighting the Menorah. Aharon and his four sons were selected to be the Kohanim. The basic garments of a Kohain consisted of a turban, shirt, pants, and belt. The Kohain Gadol wore four additional garments: the Me'ill - a long outer robe; the Ayphod - a quilted vest or bibbed apron; the Choshen - jeweled breastplate; and the Tzitz - engraved, golden, forehead plate. The quilted vest is described in this Aliya along with the two Shoham stones. These were engraved with the names of the 12 Tribes and set on the shoulders of the Kohain Gadol. 2nd Aliya: The cloth settings for the Shoham stones are described along with the jeweled breastplate. The method of fastening the breastplate to the quilted vest is explained. The breastplate was a quilted garment set with 12 stones, each engraved with the name of a Tribe. 3rd Aliya: The long outer robe is described. The hem of this garment was edged with small bells intended to announce the presence of the Kohain Gadol as he walked through the Bais Hamikdash.

  • Shauni: ​This Week's Torah Portion Is ​Parashat Emor​. We Will Be
    May 3, 2018 Parashat Emor https://www.sefaria.org/Leviticus.21.1-15?lang=bi&aliyot=1 http://mirowitztorahreading.weebly.com/emor.html Ezra Ezra ben Yehoshu’a Asher v’Temima Fayga Shauni Chana Lilah bat Kalanit v’Warren Annika Chanukkah bat Miriam v’Yosef Abigail Yosef bat Laura v’Steven Omri Omri ben Eli-Mordecai v’Osnat Shauni: This week’s Torah portion is Parashat Emor. We will be reading ​ ​ ​ from Sefer Vayikra, the Book of Leviticus, Chapter 21, Verses 1-3. Emor ​ ​ ​ means “speak.” G-d tells Moshe to speak to the kohanim, the priests, about ​ ​ what they should do to be extra holy in order to serve in the Temple. Parashat Emor also tells us about the special holidays of the Jewish calendar, ​ which make time holy throughout the year. The holy days connect us with our people, the land, the seasons, and with God. The first holy day mentioned is Shabbat, the day of rest. Omri: Then come Pesach and Shavuot, followed by the fall holidays: Rosh ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot. Parashat Emor also includes the mitzvah ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ of counting the omer. All of us are commanded to count the omer. All year long, the Kohanim at our Holy Temple, offered wheat to God. In a ceremony from Pesach until Shavuot, barley was added, and the Kohanim ​ counted on behalf of the Jewish People. These days we do the counting for ourselves. We count from the second day of Passover until just before Shavuot. That’s 7 weeks of 7 days - 7 weeks x 7 days equals 49 days! The 50th day is Shavuot.

  • Parshat Mishpatim 5773
    Written by: Rachel Leah Lovat Editor: David Michaels Parshat Beshalach 5778 In this week’s Parasha the Bnei Yisrael have left Egypt and are at the Yam Suf The Meshech Chochma answers that there could always have been a claim trapped by the sea with the Egyptians chasing after them. They were made against the Bnei Yisrael throughout the ordeal they went through in trapped and afraid and Hashem saves them by splitting the sea so they could Egypt. However, the Kateigur - prosecuting attorney - had no voice in Egypt pass. The Midrash, a passage in the Zohar in Terumah (170b), relates a because the Bnei Yisrael were never divided in Egypt. They showed conversation that the Malachim have with Hashem as the Bnei Yisrael are tremendous achdus and unity throughout the slavery they went through. going through the Yam Suf with the Egyptians giving chase. However, Rashi explains at the splitting of the sea the Bnei Yisrael were The Malachim ask Hashem, “Why are You saving the Bnei Yisrael and divided; whilst some turned to Hashem in prayer, others wanted to go back performing miracles for them but You are destroying the Egyptians (by to Egypt and some wanted to fight the Egyptians. Once this in-fighting started, the prosecuting attorney was given a voice. He says to Hashem, “I הללו עובדי עבודה ,הללו עובדי עבודה זרה ,planning to drown them)? After all these are idolaters and these are idolaters! The Jews have descended understand why You didn’t destroy them in Egypt because in Egypt the Bnei –זרה to the 49th level of Tumah and you are saving them, but not the Egyptians?’ Yisrael were unified, so I could not say anything against them, but here at the Yam Suf the Bnei Yisrael are divided so do not deserve to be saved” The Midrash continues that it was indeed, so to speak, difficult for Hashem to save the Jews and to overcome this just claim of the Kateigur, the This idea that division and dispute gives greater voice to the accusor is prosecuting attorney, until morning came.

  • Beshalach (When He Sent)
    An Introduction to the Parashat HaShavuah (Weekly Torah Portion) Understanding the Torah From a Thematic Perspective Beshalach (When He Sent) By Tony Robinson Copyright © 2003 (5764) by Tony Robinson, Restoration of Torah Ministries. All rights reserved. —The Family House of Study— Examining the Parashat HaShavuah by Thematic Analysis Welcome to Mishpachah Beit Midrash, the Family House of Study. Each Shabbat1 we gather in our home and study the Scriptures, specifically the Torah.2 It’s a fun time of receiving revelation from the Ruach HaKodesh3. Everyone joins in—adults and children—as we follow the Parashat HaShavuah4 schedule. We devote ourselves to studying the Torah because the Torah is the foundation for all of Scripture. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the Torah will help us more fully understand the rest of the Tanakh5 and the Brit Chadasha.6 Furthermore, as Yeshua stated Himself, the Torah teaches about Him. So we study the Torah in order to be drawn closer to Yeshua, the goal of the Torah. As believers in the Messiah we have discovered the richness of the wisdom of the sages of Israel. These men, who devoted themselves to the study of the Torah, have left us a rich heritage. Part of that heritage is a unique method of learning and interpreting the Scriptures. It’s called thematic analysis. In thematic analysis we search for the underlying theme/topic of each passage of Scripture. By studying Scriptures related by a common theme, line upon line and precept upon precept, the Scriptures open up to us in a unique manner that is clearly inspired by the Ruach HaKodesh.

  • Vayikra (Leviticus) 21:1-24:23 Parshat Emor Continues the Description Of
    Emor VaYikra (Leviticus) 21:1-24:23 Parshat Emor continues the description of the special rules and observances of the Kohanim. The priests are to avoid coming into contact with a corpse, and are not to shave smooth any parts of their heads. They are forbidden to marry a divorced woman, and must always be scrupulous in carrying out their duties. Moses speaks to all the people about the holidays, this being one of several calendars of holidays found in the Torah. Apart from the Shabbat, the Jewish people are to observe Passover, and seven weeks later, Shavuot, a celebration of the harvest. On the first day of the seventh month (Tishrei), the people are to mark a “sacred occasion with loud blasts”, which we, of course, recognize as Rosh Hashanah and the sounds of the Shofar. The tenth day of the same month, Tishrei, is to be a Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur. Sukkot, celebrated on the fifteenth day of Tishrei, follows Yom Kippur by 5 days, and is observed for seven days. The people are to mark the eighth day, the day after Sukkot, as Shimini Atzeret, with a special sacrifice. On all of these holidays, we are told to refrain from work. The portion concludes with the description of an incident in which a man born of an Israelite woman and an Egyptian man fights with a man born of two Israelite parents. The half-Israelite blasphemes G-d’s name in the course of the fight. G-d tells Moses that the man is to be stoned to death as punishment.

  • Weekly Message of Torah from Rabbi Rheins Parashat Tetzaveh Keeping
    Weekly Message of Torah from Rabbi Rheins Parashat Tetzaveh Keeping The Light Shining Against The Onslaught of Anti-Semitism This week’s Torah portion, Tetzaveh, includes the instruction for maintaining the Ner Tamid, the menorah that would shine a continuous light to brighten the inner sanctum of the tabernacle. We were commanded to kindle the lights every single day and that this mitzvah was an eternal obligation for every generation. To this day, every synagogue has a Ner Tamid that glows above the Araon Kodesh, the Ark that contains the Torah scrolls. The reasons for this light are both practical and symbolic. Yes, there is a logical function to having a light that illumines our sanctuaries. And it is also true that the Ner Tamid represents the inextinguishable spirit of the Jewish people: our commitment to be a light unto the nations and to resist those who are bent on evil. In an ancient midrash, Rabbi Berechiah taught that though the Ner Tamid is a commandment from God, the light is for our benefit alone: “‘And the earth was chaos and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep’ (Genesis 1:2). What follows? ‘And God said, let there be light!’ The Holy One said, ‘I have even created light in the midst of darkness. Do I need your light?’” (Vayikra Rabba 31.7) We need the light. And we need to keep kindling the light because in every generation there are those who are determined to sow chaos. This past Sunday, Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) tweeted vicious comments against Jews.

  • Parshas Beshalach and Tu Beshvat the Judaism Site
    Torah.org Parshas Beshalach and Tu BeShvat The Judaism Site https://torah.org/torah-portion/shem-meshmuel-5764-beshalach/ PARSHAS BESHALACH AND TU BESHVAT by Rabbi Dr. Meir Tamari 'When Pharaoh sent out the people, G-d did not lead them by way - baderekh- of the land of the Philistines...... perhaps the people will see war and return to Egypt. [Rather] He turned them through the desert way, to the Red Sea' (Shmot, 13: 17). Did Pharaoh send them out? After all Hashem took them out. 'G-d takes them out of Egypt' (Bilaam. Devarim, 23:22). What are we to understand from the use of baderekh rather than the simple derekh, through? What is the connection with the Philistines, whose land lies to the north of Har Sinai to which the people were to travel in order to receive the Torah, as G-d told Moshe, 'You will worship at this Mount'? Were the people so stupid as to willingly go back to the slavery and oppression they had only just left? [The last part of the question must be seen in the perspective of the treatment by Chassidic thinkers of the various rebellions and backslidings of Israel in the desert. They did not explain these as did the Rambam, Rashi and others as an effect of their slave mentality or of the need to wean them from that relationship with Egypt. Rather, in accordance with Chazal's view of them as dor deah, a wise and knowledgeable generation, they saw all of them, throughout the Torah as the errors in religious thought or the spiritual misunderstandings of a great generation who, more than any other in our history, merited miracles and Matan Torah].

  • Parshat Tetzaveh 5777 the Use of Bigdei Kehunah in Megillas Esther Hamikdash Had Been Destroyed and Yerushalayim Was in Tatters
    Written by: David Michaels Editor: Yours truly Parshat Tetzaveh 5777 The use of Bigdei Kehunah in Megillas Esther Hamikdash had been destroyed and Yerushalayim was in tatters. By The Bigdei Kehuna (garments worn by the Kohanim when officiating in the wearing the Bigdei Kehunah, Achashverosh was trying to be like the Mishkan and the Beis Hamikdash) referred to in this week’s sedra, were Kohen Godol on the world stage. worn by King Achashverosh during the first party mentioned in Megillas Esther. This explains why all the keilim of the Beis Hamikdash were displayed Rashi says that the King actually wore the eight garments worn by the and used at the party by the King. Kohen Gadol. But why? This may also explain why he took the idea further by insisting on 1. The Ein Yaakov (a perush/explanation of Aggadic material in the marrying a besulah (a girl within a specified age range) as Halochoh Talmud) says that Achashverosh wanted to show he was a melech dictates that the Kohen Gadol can only marry a girl within that age chacham and not an unintelligent leader. It is not hard to see signs of range. In the Megilla we see (Perek 2:12) that Esther would have an his paranoia in the Megilla. According to this view, he wore those audience with the king once a year. The Gra (ViIna Gaon) sees this as a remez (hint) to our neshamas having one special day each year clothes to give him status. when we have a special audience with Hashem to ask for kaporoh where Hashem is most receptive to such requests (not forgetting that we have to do teshuvah every day!).
