Parshas Chukas (5770)
by Mordechai Dolinsky
Rashi attributes the use of the word chukas in the beginning of the sedra to the fact that the satan and gentiles accost us about the parsha of parah aduma that it lacks logic. There is an important point to be noted here. The fact that there was some form of logic missing caused a disturbance to us. How rich in thought and the thirst for logic was a main pillar of Klal Yisroel. We must ponder on how much and why this is so lacking today.
Have a wonderful Shabbos.
