Parshas Emor (5770)
by Mordechai Dolinsky
The reason why the Torah distances the Kohanim from their close ones upon losing them, is because of the high level of closeness the Kohanim have to Hashem.
This closeness to Hashem is perhaps the most outstanding and significant ideal to Klal Yisroel. This is perhaps the connecting point of the diversified issues in our parsha.
How important it is for us to work to keep the awareness of Hashem in our focus and consciousness always.
Have a wonderful Shabbos and a meaningful Lag B’Omer.
