Parshas Naso 5778

by Mordechai Dolinsky

 

5:12 Rashi brings that the disloyalty and rebellion of the sotah is not only towards her husband but also against Hashem.  The rebellion against the husband is clear from the halacha aspect and even moreso from the natural instinct.  How can the rebellion apply to Hashem, that the pasuk actually puts them together and equates them, especially the aspect of doing an open act of rebellion.

 

In order for a marriage to be successful there must be present the presence of Hashem, to make it work.  As much as we invest all of our efforts, which we must do, we all know, see and feel”HE” is there.  In a thousand different ways Hashem is there bringing the couple together.  Her rebellion against Hashem is something truly tangible.

 

The pasuk that Rashi quotes including Hashem is His role as a warrior, a man of action which according to this understanding has very special meaning.

 

Have a wonderful, meaningful Shabbos.

Parshas Bamidbar (5778)

by Mordechai Dolinsky

3:16—Rashi presents a great problem, Moshe Rabeinu has to count the population to acquire the census.  How can he invade the privacy of the home and count the infants–a great problem.  The boundaries of tznius, modesty,  The solution was worked out with the Shchinah, dealing with the technicalities.  Such a grand reminder of the great insight of the pillars and standards of our great modesty.

 

Have a wonderful, fulfilling Shabbos.

Parshas Bechukosia (5778)

26:41  Hashem promises to go along with Klal Yisroel in galus to keep us tachas HaShchinah.

 

26:11  Hashem says “I will put my Shchinah amongst you, meaning the Bais HaMikdash, and he makes it a special point that He wont’ be repelled by us, a veru deep thought.

 

We need a special limud that the amailus batorah should be an auxiliary to the kiyum haMitzvos since the amailus, the intense learning, is in reality an end to itself.  Nevertheless it must be a tool to clarify, help us understand and enhance the fulfillment of the mitzvos.

 

Have a wonderful Shabbos and chodesh of true Torah Fulfillment.

Parshas Behar 5778

by Mordechai Dolinsky

 

It is absolutely amazingly awesome the Torah inserts, integrates, imposes itself on the basics of our lives especially in areas where one really and is entitled to feel his personal ownership.

 

The shmittah, absolutely mind-boggling–he has no input on his own land.  Besides the complete reliance on Hashem for his basic sustenance of life itself.  Then we have the point of ownership, selling and buying his land out of his control.  Then there is his personal body completely bound and controlled to the extent he has the right to sell himself and the buyer to what extent he can use the eved Ivri.

 

This is all a manifestation of our basic belief Hashem Hu HaElokim.  It is not just talk but it is real and we live it in the extremity as a very real committment to the emes Hashem Hu HaElokim.

 

Have a wonderful, meaningful Shabbos.
