Shnayim Yomi - Behaalotcha - Rishon - #1 5784

[Music] welcome to shn yomi an incredible way of staying connected to the par we are going to be discussing and the first Al is a fascinating Aliyah begins of course with BOS Aon is commanded to light the Min and then the Aliyah begins to describe the construction of the manora exactly what it looked like and exactly how it was constructed following that we have the story of the consecration of the levim the consecration of the levim was a multi-step process in the beginning the Lev were sprinkled with the water mixed with the ashes of the parum in order to purify them the leim were then shaved all of their hair was shaven off their clothing was washed certain carbonos were brought as a as part of this process B Isel then consecrates the levim and then interestingly Aon and Moshe both waved the Le that's right they actually waved them tell us they picked them up and this shows the Incredible strength of Moshe and Aon that they were able to pick up 22,000 levim and wave the levim and the question is whatever however we understand this process of waving the levim as part of the consecration of the levim into their aod but why exactly was it done twice why was Aon commanded to wave the levim and then then Moshe commanded to wave the lvim and the malum offers a fascinating answer and he says that really this process of waving the lvim had two different purposes to indicate the two different roles that the Levan played first Aon was commanded to wave theim to consecrate them as assistants to the kohanim we know that throughout their time in theik the kohanim were the ones who did the in the mikdash but the leim assisted them in their aod that waving was of of AR consecrated the Le and formalized their roles as the assistants to the kohanim but there was another role that Levan played and that was not just to assist the Kohan but also to represent B is and for that Moshe Renu was commanded to wave the leim because Moshe Ru who was the ultimate leader of B Isel was the one who could wave the leim and formalize and consecrate them to serve as representatives of CLA Israel [Music]
