to cover the Mizbeach to serve as a reminder not to mess with Moshe.
There was a plague after the Jews complained again and the Ketoret brought by Aaron stopped the plague but sadly many people died.
After this, Hashem instructed the tribes to each bring a stick and place it in the Mishkan. The stick upon which flowers would grow would serve as the proof which is the chosen tribe. Aaron’s stick blossomed miraculously with flowers and almonds and that solved any further doubts.
We were then taught of the 24 gifts that the Jewish people must give to the Kohanim. The tribe of Levi in general, were designated to serve Hashem and were therefore not given a portion of land in Israel. It was the privilege of the nation to support and sustain them. Similarly today, when we hear of people who spend their entire days and much of their nights studying or teaching Torah, we are aware that it is a Hugh privilege to give them financial support.
Many lessons are learned from this week’s Sidra. Firstly, to believe that Moshe was chosen by Hashem and all his appointments of others was not biased. Secondly to avoid arguments and fights at all costs. Thirdly to beware who our neighbours and friends are. Many of the tribe of Reuven were dragged into this dispute simply on account of them being neighbours of Korach! Trying to surround oneself with sincere, kind, honest and committed people is a great thing!
