Shnayim Yomi - Behaalotcha - Chamishi - #5

[Music] we begin by describing the travels of the israel from midbar sinai to midbar paran this was almost a year after they arrived in midbar sinai to accept the torah the torah describes now the camps and how banega's trial traveled throughout the midbar bonnets were split up into four camps the first camp was yehuda and in yehuda's camp were the shavatim of sakharan's volun the second camp was the camp of ruvain and the shvatim of shimon and god accompanied ruving the third camp was the camp of ephraim accompanied by the shwatum of menasha and binyamin and the fourth camp was the camp of dun accompanied by the shvatim of usher and naftali now in the midst of those travels the mishkan was dismantled in fact the torah describes that after the after the camp of yehuda traveled the mishkan was dismantled and the mishkan was carried by the levium specifically the families of gershon and mirari they dismantled the mishkan and they carried the mishkan throughout the midbar following the travels of the camp of rouve the torah describes that the family the levy family of kahus who would carry the kalim the vessels of the mishkan traveled at that point and then the torah puts in here that whenever they arrived at their new camp gershon and mirari who were carrying the mishkan would go up ahead and erect the mishkan for everyone and then kahas would come and would insert the klim and replace the kalim in their proper places in the mishkan after this moshe approaches his father-in-law yisrael and asks him to join the jewish people on their journey to eric's israel israel refuses and he says i have to go home i have to go back and be with my people. the torah then describes that the arrow the ark would travel three days in front of the israel almost scouting out the road scouting out the path of where banayaswa were to go the torah describes how the cloud led them in their travels and that leads us to our thought from this aliyah connected to the thought from the previous helio but not just that when we travel through life we have the unknown as we described in the previous aliyah but also here sometimes things are cloudy the cloud is the what led them through the midbar sometimes what leads us in life is cloudy it's overcast it looks like it's not great it looks like our situation is not ideal is not perfect but the message is that we always have to recognize that even though sometimes things in life look cloudy sometimes things in life look overcast it's always akarjabaraku that's leading us it's always hashem that's at the forefront and if we remember that we'll always feel secure despite and through all of our travels and challenges in life [Music] you
