Aaron VS. Angel

and they get in the car [Music] okay camera battery dying this is take one I know I just totally blanked what I was trying to say so it's a pair for take two okay this week's Torah portion is called Clara it's actually not just the name of the Torah portion but it's also the name of Moses cousin Clara and it is him who the parsha is named for named of named cuz of never mind this man Kairat ceases two cousins Moshe and Aaron have the two highest positions of leadership possible and just recently perhaps father's younger brothers son Karros other cousin just got appointed to a highly respected position as well and Clara is like this guy who's feeling like my cousins are doing big stuff and I'm just like Kyra a regular guy even though my name is really cool because it ends with her and some people don't know how to say that but I do so Clara instigates a rebellion against Moses and Aaron when I spared the details because I'm trying to start making these videos shorter unless I get enough feedback saying not to do that also this would probably be an appropriate time to mention that if you don't yet you should have learned the daily portion of commish everyday that's why it's called the daily portion cuz it's something that that you should do every day and I'm Ellie from the redundancy department of redundancy department and I'm Ellie yeah so spraying the details next thing we know there were 250 people offering up an unauthorized incense next thing we know the ground opens swallows up Clara and all some of his followers the 250 people burning up the incense burn up themselves they didn't burn up themselves God burn them up and then the rebellion stops or so you would think people now come complaining to Moses you're killing the people of God and Moses is like oh no no please let's stop this let's stop this here but before he could say much God speaks to Moses and tells him these people obviously agree with the rebellion that just took place a plague then starts and the Angel of Death starts killing people left and right Moses then recalls that when he was on Mount Sinai the Angel of Death himself told him that it is the incense offering that can stop the plague so Moses checks with God and says can I stop the plague and when God says yes he tells Aaron to offer up the incense offering and here is where something really interesting happens our own offers up the incense offering well why is that interesting that's exactly what Moses told him to do hang on this is this is where it gets interesting the words of Rashi Aaron grabbed ahold of the Angel of Death and the Angel of Death was like let me continue killing people please and Aaron said no Moses told me to stop you so the angel said you are acting on the word of Moses and I'm acting on the Word of God so I think I win this one then Aaron told the Angel of Death something very deep and he said my friend I mean you're not my friend you're the Angel of Death and I don't like you Moses speaks the Word of God our leader Moses is in every single generation and the Moses of our generation who right now we may not be able to physically see has told us that the revelation of mushiya is ready to happen and we must make it happen through increased our observance increased love for our fellow increased joy and verbally demanding we want mashiach now
