Torah lesson a place where life's most
difficult questions are answered here
with his spiritual perspective and
insight
rabbi Mingo it welcome to this week's
Torah lesson this week's Torah portion
is processed by midmost
the question of the week is how does God
show his love for us so in this week's
Torah portion passion for Midgar we
learn about the way God instructs Moses
to count the Jewish people now it's
interesting is not only is God instruct
most to count the Jewish people in this
week's Torah portion in the book of our
mid-run the book of numbers later on
impartial spinjas the Jewish people are
counted again and interestingly the
another name for the book about mid bar
is actually called how much I've cooked
in the book accounting now why is the
book called the book of counting because
counts the Jewish people and we
find interesting when you count there is
a feature in counting you count someone
you're not saying his name or his title
or what he does when you're counting a
person as a human being which soul is
the quality of the essence of the human
being so when you counsel and give
someone recognition acknowledgement for
who they are without any camouflage
color or reason just who they are but
then you can count someone and point out
their unique talents and abilities and
here you find the promise up code in the
Book of Numbers the book of counting
when the Jewish people accounted a
they're counted but B they're counted
based on the trunks the Rebbe says here
you see the way God captained the Jewish
people the way he really really loved
them in other words the answer the
question has God show the love for the
Jewish people that he counts the Jewish
people with that in itself is showing
his love for them but more importantly
the way count that wasn't just saying
counting and that itself was great but
he counted them based on the tribe based
on a unique quality every single person
had based on their unique tribe and that
is true love counting the Jewish people
but counting them as unique and special
with the special quality that a tribe
has this week's Torah lesson is a memory
