Tues. 3/18 Tes Zayin Adar 2, Parshas Shemini Torah summary- Arons sons Nadav & Avihu died since they burnt incense on the altar without permission while intoxicated. Aron didnt complain & all the Jews mourned for them. Sefer Hamitzvos- +59 Commandment to blow trumpets on days of joy & holidays! Halacha- 685 The Shabbos prior to the month of Nissan, we read Parshas Parah. It speaks about the red heifer which was used to purify the Jews so that they can eat the Pascal sacrifice. Women are not obligated to hear Parshas Parah. Hayom Yom- The challenge for a businessman is to have faith that G-d will provide ample livelihood & to be cheerful as though it already happened. Tanya- The glory of G-d will fill the whole world. At the time of Moshiach the neutral will be elevated so that evil will have no vitality which it currently receives from the neutral. The people will perceive G-d as they did at Mt. Sinai. Tehillim- chabad.org/dailystudy/tehillim.asp?tdate=3/18/2014&lang=heb Tehillim Eng.- chabad.org/dailystudy/tehillim.asp?tdate=3/18/2014 ********************************************* Tues. Torah at length- A fire descended and consumed the burnt offering & fat on the altar & the people sang praises. Arons sons Nadav & Avihu put incense in their pan and burnt it on the altar without G-d commanding them..they were both consumed by a G-dly fire..but their bodies intact. Rashi says he deduced they were drunk since right after it Hashem tells Aron directly-as a reward for not complaining- not to enter the sanctuary/altar (or give halachic judgement) while intoxicated. Moshe told Arons first cousins -amram brothers sons-to remove the 2 dead bodies by their tunics so as not to disturb the occasion. Aron & his sons were told not to mourn by not cutting their hair or garments..which is what mourners do..but all of Israel will mourn for them-when a scholar dies it effects all the people.
