Parsha Tzav 5771: Jewish Constancy, or Rote, Complacency and Assimilation?

moshe

by Moshe Burt

In our Parsha, Tzav is Moshe’s command from Hashem to Aaron HaKohen and his sons to take up and clothe themselves in their Vestments, their garments of service in the Mishkan, and to begin their daily Avodah (service and offerings in the Mishkan).

For seven days, Moshe taught Aaron HaKohen and his sons the laws of their Avodah in the Mishkan. (You might say that they were given, as they term it in the US, OJT from Shemayim.) On the eighth day, Aaron and his sons began their Avodah. read more

The Korban Pesach: Hashem’s Modern-Day Tests of Emunah?

Rabbi Chaim Zev Malinowitz has repeatedly urged our Kehilla to internalize the Yetziyat Mitzriyim — the B’nai Ysrael’s leaving Mitzriyim, to internalize, to feel, to make part of our very being and our daily lives that “I am a Jew who left Egyptian enslavement.”

In giving much thought to our leaving Mitzriyim, it seems that integral to the Yetziyat Mitzriyim is that the Jews took the Korban Pesach — Egyptian lambs, an Egyptian deity, tied it to the bedpost overnight, slaughtered it, took its blood and applied it to their doorposts and devoured it on the night before they left Mitzriyim. read more

Homesh: In Retrospect

moshe

Commentary;

After last week’s re-entry into Homesh, this author, with the help of various media coverage during and after the fact, tries to set the 2 1/2 day Homesh event in perspective.

The left and some of the media tried to present this event as an arrogant power-grab on behalf of Orange activism. In doing so, they’ve pushed all of the wrong buttons.

But are enough Jews wise and savvy enough to discern psychological projection when they see it?

Case in point, this blog picked up, Welcome to Settler Nation. Now, Obey!, by Bradley Burston of Haaretz under the headline;
Homesh… and Leftist Hate Journalism from H-ll! read more
