Pinchos is Eliyohu

This is a statement of our Sages. What connection do we see between them ?
One answer is that Pinchos stopped people from desecrating the holiness of Bris Milah thus he became the angel of the Bris.

Why Chukim ?

Why does Hashem give us some Mitzvos in the Torah with explaining all of their reasons ?

If all Mitzvos were explained well we might err & do them all because they make sense & thus forget that we are obeying G-ds will. Thus Hashem gave us some of these & some of those so that we should do them all because He gave them & we love Him.
We also know that they all have perfect reasons but we cannot understand all of it in this world.

One great Lesson

One of the reasons Korach gets his name on the Parsha is that he did want to serve Hashem more.

Face Reflections

One of the reasons Moshe fell on his face is that it says in Mishlei -just as water can reflect ones image , so too a persons heart reflects what others think about them.
Thus Moshe was thinking why are they against me ?
Maybe my thoughts weren't positive enough toward him thus I'm getting this response.
