Parshas Chukas (5777)

by Mordechai Dolinsky

 

When משה רבנו hit the סלע forsure it had a very strong definite and clear rational חשבון. He thought it was right to go against Hashem’s  commandment and to hit the סלע .  So how can we understand the taina on him?

Perhaps we can say that it was expected of him that he should be so batal to Hashem that he should not have any input just as a senseless  דומם fulfills hashems will.

This should be a great inspiration for all of us to be batal to Hashem, each one on our own level.

Have a wonderful meaningful significant שבת.

Parshas Korach (5777)
by Mordechai Dolinsky

17:10 A tremendous ‘peleh’ we find our parsha, Hashem, upon Klal Yisroel shocking allegiance to Korach calls to Moshe Rabeinu to move from the aida so that He will consume them. Next we find Moshe enlisting Aharon’s assistance to arrest the plague. Peleh of peleh in the clear simplicity Moshe is actually enacting actuating to defer the plague that Hashem clearly wanted.

Perhaps one possible thought when Hashem declared to move away “so I can destroy” this is a statement made only how humans involved would express. In other words Hashem was demonstratint that He wanted it dealt with as ‘bnei adam’. The great, awesome lesson from Korach how we have to fear how one can be blinded and cry to Hashem always for His assistance.

Have a wonderful Shabbos and a Chodesh of bracha and hatzlacha.

Parshas Shlach (5777)
by Mordechai Dolinsky

In our parsha we fnd from the beginning a negativeness against Klal Yisroel for wanting and requesting the sending of the meraglim. This is difficult to understand for it is a conventional and acceptable effort to check out the military status in a country one is about to invade. Even more difficult, Yehoshua in his preparation did the same without any criticism. The greatest difficulty is the quotation of Rashi that Hashem agreed so that they would default and wouldn’t be zocheh to Eretz Yisroel.

What I wish to say and try to explain what Bnei Yisroel wanted to send wasn’t to investigate to determine the military status. It was to critically investigate and made an evaluation of Eretz Yisroel, the land and the people; whether it was worthy to enter to accept the gift of Hashem. This was the reason for Hashem’s great wrath. When the cloud of the Satan dissipated they immediately regretted. The great lesson and inspiration is how much we must always beware of this blindness and pray to Hashem for assistance of clarity and enlightenment.

Have a wonderful Shabbos.

Parshas Naso 5777
by Mordechai Dolinsky

In our parsha we have the great judgment of the woman concerning her guilt of defaulting, the ultimate of unfaithfulness to her husband. One might think that the logical, fair approach would be a variety of different technical judicial proofs, instead we have pure ruchnius, l’maalah min hateva, of reliance on the dvar Hashem. Imagine her tzaar, the feelings of no arguments, no counterproofs. Perhaps this is the midah k’neged midah for the tzaar of the husband that she possibly was unfaithful in a way that the truth is so hidden.

Hashem give us the strength to truly understand the truth.

Have a wonderful Shabbos.
