INTERSTING THAT OF THE 54 TORAH PORTIONS TITLES 6 ARE HUMAN NAMES….NOACH , CHAYIE SARAH….. YITRO (PAGAN PRIEST) KORACH, BALAK PINCHAS. Of the 6, 3 are in the book of Numbers. In the book of numbers, we think about them Korach who was a Jew who had a wicked heart and he had a very lofty, high position in the nation of Israel but he was not satisfied with his position he wanted to grasp more power more authority and rebelled against Hashem. We come to balak who was a wicked Gentile King and he's the one who had the bright idea to hire the Prophet The Wicked Prophet Balaam to come into curse the Jewish people. Finally but then with Phineas or Pincus we find a very very righteous Jewish man whose Act of zeal for God is was so memorable, that averted the plague, and so marked that God established them a Brit Shalom a covenant of Peace. WHY IS Evil people’s name included as part of the Torah? WHAT IS HAHSEM TELLING US BY HAVING EVEN THOSE men like korah and Balak THAT LEAD ISRAEL ASTRAY GIVEN HONOUR…. SPEAKS OF HASHEM’S GREATNESS THAT EVEN IN TRAGEFY… EVEN IN DARKNESS… THERE IS GOODNESS THAT CAN COME OUT….. can be learned. WE CELEBRATED THE START OF THE MONTH OF TAMMUZ LAST MONDAY NIGHT….
