Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz Weekly Torah Lesson Parsha Behaalotecha

welcome to this week's Torah lesson this week's turn portion is passions by Halo Islam the question of the week is what is thus so in this week's terrible portion a tour begins and it says when iron is going to light the the menorah in the temple so Rashi says what is the connection between iron lighting the manure in the temple and the gifts that the tribe brought to the temple sarashi says when Aaron saw that all the priests all the princesses from the from all the tribes brought gifts to the temple he felt bad that he wasn't part of it so Hashem says relax your gift is going to be greater than theirs because you're gonna light the menorah every single day server says it's an interesting expression is not a language that's used usually it's you're in pain you're you don't feel great about it what's the idea of culture dancing dance is more intellect and the river explains what's the idea of doves thus as we know is the part that allows us to apply our intellectual comprehension with reality in other words like we know what it says in the talmud we are all created to serve Hashem so when you have Das you apply that idea that I'm here to serve God and if I cannot serve God so yeah my gosh is weakened because I'm here for a purpose so I ruin when he saw that everybody was participating in a temple he wasn't his Das was weak because how can I go ahead and fulfill my obligation to serve God just like everyone else is serving God and that's why users specifically the expression of whole cells was weakened so to answer the question what is that Das is the gift that we have our intellectual gift to apply ourselves to reality and to connect to to anything in this world through the application of us and the lesson obviously is that when the community when everyone's doing something you can't participate it should affect your dance because why can't it be part of the community and bringing a beautiful gift thanks so much for joining us for our weekly Torah lesson this week's lesson is dedicated to memory of Baruch minarial safe on Cinema studying in their memory for more information please see our website khabadsw.org have a great and blessed week
