First 3

The first 3 Makos , Blood , Frogs & Lice , were all brought about by Aaron not Moshe.
One of the lessons is because Moshe had a greater obligation of gratitude to the water & the earth.

This serves to remind us to thank Hashem for the water which pours out of the faucets when we use them. And to be thankful that you are standing on solid ground as you are reading this dvar Torah.
Thank You Hashem for the earth & the water.

The Power of Small Talk

In Brochos 3a , where the Gemara teaches the time for Shma in the morning , it says that there are 3 signs for the right time -

- An infant gets up to nurse from its mother ,
- A wife will spend some time conversing with her husband &
- its time to say the Shma.

What is the common denominator of these 3 issues ?

All 3 are essential connections in life.

- A child must have nourishment , food , nutrition & bonding with its mother.

- A marriage must be maintained with small talk. Conversation that bonds , nurtures & develops caring , sharing & private time together.

- time to say the Shma daily - to say we Love Hashem & connect to Him on a daily basis.

Eikev

The word Eikev also means the heel of the body which is not the most important part of the body. Why not name a Sedra after the Head or the Heart ?
One of the answers is that although the heel has a humble position it can hold up the entire body when one stands. ! See Baal Haturim.

It was my turn for Devarim for the Torah Links website. Enjoy!

Reveiw Time

Sefer Dvarim is called the review of the Torah.
But we see that it contains 200 Mitzvos of the 613 , many of them which are brand new. ?
Thus we learn how to do review. ! Each time we are to study deeper & to see new levels of profound meaning.
We also learn to spend at least a fifth of our time on review. !

Travel Plans

Why does the Torah spend so much time on travel plans in Masei ?
The Torah lists 42 stations in the midbar.

To teach that we are in this world to travel through & prepare for the World to Come !

Basic Lesson

One of the great lessons of Masei is that every place we go to or end up in even for a short while , is where Hashem is sending us for significant Purposes.

4 Greatest Goals

Torah Study
Prayer
Good deeds / Chesed
& Business

The Talmud , Brochos 32 b , says that for these 4 we need Chizuk -
Rashi - always with all of ones strength. !

The obvious q.

Why is the fourth item on the list with the first 3 ?

One answer - as we learn in Avos - if there is a lack of sustenance , how will one maintain their Torah study. ?
Thus # 4 is the way to maintain & support the first 3 , when it is done for the proper reasons.

Time to Think

On a fast day we have more time to think.
On this fast , we think of the 5 tradegies that occurred on this day.
- The Luchos were smashed.

Thus we need to think of how to improve our fulfillment of the 10 Commandments. To reconstruct & rebuild the Luchos.

The need of a Mentor

We learn that if a daughter made a vow , the father can cancel it.

If a wife made a vow , the husband can nullify it.

So too , if any person makes a vow , the Rav cancels it.

We all need a Mentor !

Connected

Why is Sholom , peace & Sholaim , whole part of the same word ?

A vicious terrorist may claim he wants peace as log as he can continue to blow up people. But the truth is that it would be the opposite of peace to allow him to live.

Peace means 4 things - as Aaron explains in Pirkei Avos.
Love Peace
Pursue it ,
Love people &
Bring them closer to Torah.

Giving it your All

Pinchos was rewarded with a covenant of Peace.
Why was that his reward ?
The word - Sholom , peace &
Sholaim , whole are connected.

He gave it his all , he risked his life to do what was right. Thus he was rewarded in a remarkable , all - encompassing way !

Greatness of Pinchos

The Rambam lists 40 great pivotal leaders who were the key transmitters of the Mesora from

Moshe Rabeinu until Rav Ashi.

The third is Pinchos !

Moshe
Yehoshua
Pinchos.

Taking a Stand

Pinchos took a stand for Hashems honor & thus gained tremendous rewards.
There are 3 components to the Mitzva to Love Hashem :

- Cling To Him

- Rejoice in Serving Him &

- Defend His Honor.
Thus Pinchos performed a great Mitzva of Loving Hashem !

True Desire

On the path one desires to go ...

How do we define true desire ?

Rotzon , & Rotz are from the same root.
Are you running or walking slowly ?

Are you diligent about it or just wishing ?

Lesson of Perseverance

The Talmud , Makos 10b , says that we learn from Bilam that a person will be led based on his choices.

At first Hashem told him you cannot go. But when he kept pleading that he wants to , Hashem said Ok.

Kal Vchomer , when we strive to do what is right.

Where is the Source ?

That in every person there is a sleeping Lion ?

See Parshas Balak 23: 24

And the first few words of the Shulchan Aruch - Wake up like a Lion to serve Hashem. !

Greatest Peace Pursuer

Who was the greatest pursuer of Peace in history ?

Aaron the Kohen.
We are all taught to learn from him.
In Avos , ch. 1 - Be a disciple of Aaron- Love peace & pursue it , love people !

Water , food & Shelter

In whose merit do we have w.f & s. Nowadays ?

When Miriam passed away the water rock stopped producing , when Aaron passed away the Clouds of Glory shelter stopped. When Moshe rabeinu passed away the Mann stopped.

In the way we make a living we may think we know how we produce income but the truth may be different.
The Torah we study daily may be the merits we live by & the great Torah Teachers we have may be our secret source !

Answer

The non Jew had figured out logically that we need to honor our Parents all the time because they did us the greatest & most unique favor - giving us the gift of life !

Thus they are one of a kind. !
That is why Hashem gave a Parah Aduma , which is one of a kind - measure for measure.

Question

The Talmud says that a non Jew was rewarded with a Para Aduma worth millions because he excelled in honoring his parents.

Why was that the measure for measure reward ?
Hashem could have just given him a box of gold as a reward.

Red Cow Message

The laws of Para Aduma are rare & unique. One of the messages for us is how Hashem made laws that are remarkable & memorable. The Rambam says there were only 9 of them so far in history & the tenth will be discovered when Moshcha comes.

We were put here to emulate Hashems ways thus we can think of ideas of how tio fulfill great Mitzvos.
Let us focus on fulfilling a truly amazing Mitzva this week.
