Pinchas - Women's Intuition
491 views
Why does the story of the daughters of Tzlafchad immediately follow the statement of the Torah about the death of a generation because of the sin of the spies? What are the two instances where the women 'fixed that which the men broke?' What made the women defy the men and retain their trust in Hashem despite the many voices to the contrary? Why does the Torah enumerate the lineage of these righteous women? What was the lesson of the death of Uza, as he tried to catch the Aron (Ark) for Dovid and what was the lesson of the daughters of Tzlafchad for Moshe? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

you're listening to the weekly partial
podcast with Ari goldwag recorded with
hashem's never running assistance in
Roma Beach Massachusetts
as I mentioned last week
Patrick is the first Parsha kukas is the
completion 16 years by Hashem that I've
been doing these podcasts and once a
year I I make a pitch I ask you guys to
pitch in
and actually this week I'd like to
direct you to arigoldog.com new album
I am in the process of creating a an
acapella album songs that sound like
voices that are
in consonance with the three weeks slow
songs it's always have to do with Urban
basement there's the destruction of the
temple hopefully the rebuilding of the
Temple and I'd like to encourage you to
go there and to help out the
crowdfunding arigoldag.com new album in
celebration of 16 years of these
podcasts and in Celebration
of trying to contribute to Claud Israel
and to to help out the Jewish people in
any way that we can
you can take part in that join me in
inspiring many Jews
now let's get to the partial the partial
so in our Parsha we have two concepts
there's many Concepts but two concepts
that are side by side in the Parsha
and
Within These two concepts we have a very
powerful and deep important lesson that
we can all take home
it is
about the counting of the Jewish people
this counting was important
we always find that Hashem counts the
Jewish people wants to know how many
Jews there are he wants us to know how
many we are the importance of every
individual
and they did this as they were about to
enter the land of Israel Ohio
there was not a single person or
literally a single man left from the
original counting of mosheviara
when they left Egypt they were counted
there was not a single man left
from that original counting
where this is at the end of chapter 26
verses 63 64 65. Hashem had told him
that they would all die in the
wilderness because of the sin that
occurred on Tish above which is coming
up which was the sin of listening to the
spies
who had spoken negatively at the land of
israelitis
only two men were left of all of those
men of all those people just Yeshua who
would come in and was
the and Khalif the two spices spoke
positively of the land of Israel
now immediately after that the verse
tells us the beginning of chapter 27
verse 1.
English means
he tells us about the daughters
that they came and they wanted to have a
portion land of Israel their father had
died
and he had had only five daughters he
had no Sons
it tells us who he was it was
the son of Menasha fifth generation to
Menasha
the son of yesadic sixth generation from
Joseph
and it tells us their names
and they requested emotional that they
should not their family shouldn't lose
out just because they had only daughters
why should their family lose out having
a portion for them in the land of Israel
and indeed mushroom didn't know the
answer to their question immediately he
went to ask Hashem Hashem responded and
said they are correct these ladies are
correct
they should not lose out they have a
tremendous love for Ernest Israel they
have a tremendous love to for the land
to live in a land they want a portion in
the land
they should not lose out
so I'd like to learn with you so much
I'm here
a very beautiful in Russian
and what what was the you know you know
me you know what I like to talk about
this is ertz Israel here we are I want
you all get you know I want everyone to
to be here everyone to be your wish to
land to come and inherit this land it's
our land
but what is the deeper understanding of
the specialness of these these women
what did they understand
that as we'll see certain others did not
understand
foreign
came close
to
that generation
which really refers to well as we'll see
two different parts the beginning of the
Wilderness and the end of the Wilderness
the women
the women of that time were very strong
they were very powerful spiritually
they fixed things that men broke
what does it mean she cannot might say
the first place that we see that is a
classic thing we find which is
in regards of the golden cat the son of
the golden calf which yesterday was
Shiva Thomas that was the day of the sin
of the golden calf
what happened on that day Aaron said to
the to the men
take your wives earrings take the gold
and bring it to me
the women defied their husbands they did
not agree to give their goals for this
Idols of
it says it in mail the the language is
that they took off their earrings the
men took off their earrings not the
women
the Avira the sin the pizza that the men
did the women did not allow they defied
the men they didn't listen they didn't
get involved in this terrible sin became
a mirage
maybe you've heard this before maybe you
haven't I don't remember hearing this
before
when it came to the sin of the Mirage
when it came to the sin of the spies
showed
right they they spoke negatively of the
land
and the meaning the spies and they came
and caused the entire congregation to
complain well
they said the the Jewish people said we
can't go we can't we can't succeed we
can't conquer the land
foreign
the women were not part of this they did
not agree
to that which the miraglim the spies had
said
how do we know
right here in our parisha right before
the story of the benign says
as we read
the noise
no man was left as we mentioned no man
was left
no men survived but the women did why am
actually
why did the men die because they didn't
want to come into the land of Israel
but we see the contrast between the men
who didn't come in and the women who had
a special love an affinity for the land
of Israel they they were so anxious that
they shouldn't be left out of having an
inheritance in the land of Israel
says
that's why these two concepts are
written right next to each other the
concept of the fact that all of these
people died
because of the sin of listening to the
raglam and right next to that it says
that the banana
came and requested that they should have
their abortion they show their love for
the land of Israel to show us to teach
us that the women were not part
of this mistake of this terrible sin of
of speaking negatively and believing the
negative words about the land of Israel
the women didn't take part in that
amazing thing what I want to understand
what is the difference how come the man
made this mistake and why did the women
not make this mistake
what was the difference
between the men and the women
before we answer this question I'd like
to read another piece in the madrush
that's the end of that piece in the
madrush we're going to read a second
piece and then the third piece we'll see
the answer to this question
of what was the difference between the
men and women
another thing another important idea
that is
who they were they were from it gives us
their whole lineage going all the way
back to Maher the son of Menasha Menasha
the son of Yosef
what a what a praise
we see the incredible love that the
great great great great great
grandchildren of Josef had for the land
of Israel how important it was to them
and it's a praise to them it's a praise
to their fathers and Priests their
grandfather great grandfather their
great great grandfather
Chicago
that such wise and righteous daughters
came from these people
what was the wisdom here the wisdom was
that they knew the right moment to speak
at this very
moments
Moshe mentions and talks about the fact
that these are the ones the ones who
were just counted are going to receive a
portion of the land of Israel
at that moment which is a time you know
you have to know if you want something
sometimes you got to hit the right
moment you gotta speak about it at the
right time at a time when people are
open to receive your words my sharabino
is talking about
uh splitting up the land amongst the
tribes that's the right time they had
the wisdom to understand that
this is the time to make this request
they wanted their family to have a
portion of the land
so they said look if we are considered
like Sons so then meaning Our Father
didn't have a son but maybe in such a
case we should be considered like a son
we should be able to get it and if not
so then let our mother do Yi boom let
her
do the leverage marriage and in so doing
uh our portion will not be lost
so Moshe immediately
brought their their question in front of
a chef there was a it was a wise
question was an appropriate question at
the right moment
said Connie I saw you
and we said that they were righteous
very interesting they waited
they only allowed themselves to marry
someone who was correct for them
they waited they were at least had died
at the beginning of the 40 years and
they were
kanira all around the age of at least
40.
what they waited
and they depended as an unfortunately on
a Nace because how are they going to
have children they're they're on in
years
so here actually the measure starts to
give us a hint
a hint
to the contrast as we're going to see
there's a contrast between moisha Robin
and Moses
and the benefit I mean if you think
about it much is not able to enter the
land of Israel
these women are entering the land of
Israel Moshe was pulled along in the Sin
of the spies in a certain sense
and as a result of it he wasn't able to
bring the Jewish people into the land of
Israel but these women were going into
Israel and they were going to inherit in
the land of Israel
now
there was a certain thing that he had a
certain good thing that he had done
yeah
for 40 years he was in the mid bar so he
had separated himself from his wife and
the reason was because he had to be
ready at any moment for a navua for
prophecy to come from Hashem he was
constantly having prophecy
and therefore he wasn't allowed to be
with his wife so he had separated
himself apiadibur based on the
instruction of Hashem from his wife so
might have thought look I'm I'm a holy
person I'm a hush of person
ideas
these women had waited because they
weren't sure what to do as far as their
nakla as far as their inheritance
interesting they waited to get married
and they waited until this moment to
even say anything about the nahala about
their inheritance in the land of Israel
they waited a whole 40 years in two
aspects in two respects
first they waited as far as getting
their knuckle and second all they waited
as far as who should they marry they
didn't know what to do and they would be
instructed to marry men only from their
tribe so that it would stay within their
tribe this portion
which is what they ended up doing
he separated from his wife for 40 years
did something very good as he was
supposed to do but they also did it
don't think
this is an interesting thing because
much is
the most humble so really it seems to be
a message for us we need to understand
what the message is
but don't think
as it were that you did such an amazing
thing nobody else ever did such a thing
these women also did not get married yet
they waited for the right moments
in order to marry the correct person
they also have this seed Coast they also
have this righteousness
now
the next Madras
so I just want to point that one thing
from this from this thing
that my shirt I'm sorry that that the
daughters of salahud
they took after their great great great
grand for the yasuf said to the other
tribes he said promise me that you'll
bury me in the land of Israel
and he showed a love he he wanted his
bones to be buried in Israel and they
are indeed buried in Shem today you
could go to his grave yosef's grave
I am a national friend's grave
they're all buried together
they had this special great lover at
Israel
which allowed them to get a knock like
to get an inheritance
a portion the land of Israel
so it's a great praise
it's like we give over the love that we
have I know my great grandfather Yeah my
son
is named after my baby Joseph
he's buried in Earth's Israel he's
buried in in krasaba
and
he had a tremendous love right sister he
came here in the 30s
my grandparents ended up in New York
that lives in arts Israel at that time
and then they ended up not being able to
make it financially they ended up in
America and then there was always a love
there was always a Consciousness in my
family my grandparents my parents
for how important Earth Israel is how
important is to live in Earth's Israel
the cusp of Gullah were at the at the
cusp what do you do when Michelle is
about to arrive he moved to Arts Israel
this is where you gotta live
and that love that since came I know
came for me from my parents my
great-grandparents and it's so important
for us to be aware of them to think
about that and to give that yerusha that
inheritance over to our children that
that's where we belong
that that's where we're headed that
that's the place that we want to be and
it might be that
we have to you know I I told my father
my father likes to talk about artist
straw he goes in the Summers to have his
store and the cats goes in Upstate New
York but he's here the rest of the year
my parents I said he likes to tell
people you know that's Israel you gotta
live in Earth Israel and I said to him
you know a good mushroom if you could
share with people is that when the when
the rebbe comes in to give a sheer when
the when the rabbit comes in to give his
sermon or whatever his his lecture so
does everyone come in does the class
come in after the rebbe walks in and
sits down or is everyone there before
it's appropriate it's respectful that
before the rebbe comes in before the
person is giving the lecture walks in
the door everyone's already inside of
the of the hall where the lecture is
being given
and it's the same thing
we need to fill the hole so that the the
rebbe can arrive
now let's go on I want to understand and
soon we're going to understand what is
it that the women why was it that the
women didn't partake in the eagle
they didn't they didn't partake in the
Mirage they had a special love for ertz
Israel
why did they have that and the men
didn't have that and perhaps you can see
from the following measures
brought the question in front of Hashem
directly as it were
and the question we could ask is
he had been taught everything already on
our scene I received all the terror
why why didn't he have the answer for
them right away why did he need to ask
Hashem
the measure says that we find that there
are those who say that this was
something that Maisha Hashem had
intentionally caused Maisha to forget
the answer to this question so that he
would be humbled
she is
foreign they were righteous individuals
who had become haughty of course this is
on a righteous person's level right
let's let's be clear the righteous don't
become horny like we become haughty
right it's on a very darkest level it's
a very fine level
they became haughty in regards to a
manner of a Commandments and Hashem
weakened them to teach them a lesson
now listen to this this is amazing
first we're going to talk about King
David and then we're going to talk about
Maisha atmosis
King David said something which Hashem
was upset about
he said that your statutes for me were
like songs
what what's the what's the problem
yeah song Beautiful song the tires a
song
what did he mean
s
what he meant to say is that the terror
is is easy for me and and I just like
I'm always walking along and singing I'm
always humming a tune Tunes are always
in my head was a was a singer he was a
composer he was a a songwriter he always
had music in his head
just as easy as that is the tire is also
sweet and easy for me
but he shouldn't have said this is
I promise you you're gonna make a
mistake Nita you think it's so easy
it's not so easy it's not something that
just comes to you
without seat without Heavenly assistance
when he returned the iron that had been
taken by the police Name by the
Philistines
and
when he brought back the iron from that
place the Ark of the Covenant he made a
mistake and he put it onto a onto a a
nagala
uh a carriage a wagon should never give
us
a brand new wagon
but it was wrong
it was wrong to do that because as the
Posse says it needs to be carried by
human beings because
what happened the Oren floated in the
air
and the
the
cows that were pulling the wagon
so they pulled out the wagon from
beneath the Aaron from beneath the ark
it was hanging in the air it looked like
it was gonna fall coravus
went to try to support the arenzo
wouldn't fall
and usid was killed
because you're not allowed he was I
think he was a non-coan
and you're not allowed to hold the r in
itself yet to hold it by
the uh the badim by the the
the
I want to say the sticks so the branches
the the
poles that's the word I'm looking for
the polls they have to be held by the
polls you can't touch the iron itself
directly
when you make a mistake in learning it
causes a terrible Mist it causes
because it can cause someone's death
David was very upset that USA had been
killed
our language
so
you said the terror is so easy David
I just know that there easily you forgot
the password to be fair it's an explicit
verse in by mid-bar in Numbers chapter 7
verse 9
it was held on there by people it can't
be held by a wagon and really it doesn't
even it's not held but so it holds them
right the Orange is nicely As Nice of
the orange carries those who carry it
it's very interesting
what's this why why does the lesson of
David's mistake come about through this
through the Aaron
through the through the Ark of the
Covenant so it is a very deep thing here
and it connects back to the Venice we'll
see because I'm not going to read this
part but my sharabino made a similar
mistake he had told the judges anything
that's difficult should come to me all
the difficult issues should come to me
if you can't resolve them
and so they brought the Vanessa brought
him a question and he couldn't resolve
this question it was a simple answer but
he didn't remember the answer to teach
him a similar lesson
but what's the lesson
the lesson is very deep my friends
listen to this it's very deep and it
connects back to artsy thrall and what
it means to come into artsy thrill and
what the women understood intuitively
that the men fail to understand
and that is that the Torah
the Torah is not something that you
carry it's a lightning it's an easy
thing it's easy to learn Torah it's a
beautiful thing it's it's sweet it's I'm
singing the words of the tire all the
time
don't make such a mistake if you
understand the tire and it's easy for
you or you have a connection to Tara
don't think it's you you gotta remember
it's easy and it's like because the tire
is carrying you not because you are
carrying the Tyra
the tire is carrying you that's why it's
sweet that's why it's light
by saying it's like a song
it's it's me carrying the house this
sweetness comes it was a mistake in
who's carrying whom
David made it seem like from his words
that he was carrying the Torah and that
was the mistake was that the aura needed
to be carried
it didn't need to be carried it carries
the people who carry it
my sharabeno made the same mistake
again I understand that this is all in a
very fine level it's not like our
mistakes it's not like our guy was not
like our haughtiness this is a very very
fine thing
but we have a lesson to learn from it
which is what hazal is teaching us this
the the women understood something that
the men didn't understand the woman
understood on a very
uh
emotional level on an intuitive level
right women have a beanies here they
have an extra intuition
why did they make a mistake when it came
to the a girl
the women that didn't get involved what
do you mean much is not here he didn't
come he's not coming let's make an idol
the woman didn't fall for that line it
didn't didn't feel right it can't be
Hashem brought us here and then killed
our leader it just can't be
the women on an intuitive level knew the
Torah which is also what had to do with
the Eagle right the tire coming down
moisture I've been Bringing Down the
tire it's being brought by Hashem it's
been given by Hashem
let's let's hold on a second here we're
not getting involved in our own beliefs
of how we access the Teri axis
relationship with Hashem who's going to
be our new leader all these things hold
on back off
the women intuitively knew something is
amiss let's not get involved
in this mistake of the eagle and also in
the miragulum the women intuitively knew
what are they talking about we can't
we can't go into Arts Israel it was not
parnassa there there's not there like
people imagine which doesn't make any
sense because better than anything in
in hutzlars
what the women don't buy that line
the women don't buy that line This
Moroccan business it's it's ridiculous
who intuitively they know it's Hashem
who's carrying us
it's Hashem who's carrying us
it's Hashem who's carrying us it's
Hashem is teaching us the Torah the
woman understands something that the man
doesn't understand
the women had an intuitive understanding
of what it means to inherit the land of
Israel
and that it's accessible and it's
possible why because Hashem said so
Hashem said come live in Earth's Israel
it's possible you can do it
you can do it
they knew intuitively and we all if we
access that intuition know it
intuitively
we need to follow our intuition she says
the women did in those times
so too we need to do that in our times I
want to bless you I ask you to bless me
Hashem should help us that we should be
able to access our intuition to
understand the Deep
such a deep idea to understand it that
Hashem is here with us anything that he
accomplish is his
any Terror that we learn is his anything
that we accomplish if we live in Earth
Israel it's because he is giving us the
success any partnership that we have
it's him
with that understanding Hashem should
help us to be able to take action and do
that which we know intuitively is right
