Hebrew translation:

155. וְעַל זֶה בְּכָל שְׁאָר הָאֵיבָרִים יֵשׁ אֲבַעְבּוּעוֹת, שְׂאֵת אוֹ סַפַּחַת, סְגִירוּת הַצָּרַעַת. לַלֵּב אֵין כְּלוּם מִכָּל אֵלֶּה, אֶלָּא הוּא נָקִי וּבָרוּר מֵהַכֹּל, אֵין בּוֹ מוּם כְּלָל. כָּךְ הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא לָקַח אֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל, שֶׁהוּא נָקִי וּבָרוּר שֶׁאֵין בּוֹ מוּם, וְעָלָיו כָּתוּב (שיר השירים ד) כֻּלָּךְ יָפָה רַעְיָתִי וּמוּם אֵין בָּךְ. בָּא רַבִּי יוֹסֵי, נָשַׁק יָדוֹ וְאָמַר, אִלּוּ לֹא בָאתִי לָעוֹלָם רַק כְּדֵי לִשְׁמֹעַ אֶת זֶה – דַּי לִי.
156. וְשֵׁם אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל הַמֻּכֶּה וְגוֹ’. אָמַר רַבִּי יִצְחָק, פָּסוּק זֶה הָיָה צָרִיךְ לְהִכָּתֵב: וְשֵׁם אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר הִכָּה פִּנְחָס, וְלֹא הַמֻּכֶּה אֲשֶׁר הֻכָּה. לֹא נֶאֱמַר אֶלָּא בְּדֶרֶךְ נִסְתָּר.
157. אֶלָּא כָּךְ אָמַר רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר (רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן), כֵּיוָן שֶׁהֶעֱלָה הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא אֶת פִּנְחָס לִכְהֻנָּה גְדוֹלָה, לֹא רָצָה לְהַזְכִּיר לְפִנְחָס אֶת הֶרֶג הָאָדָם, שֶׁהֲרֵי לֹא רָאוּי לְכֹהֵן גָּדוֹל. טֶרֶם הֶעֱלָהוּ לִכְהֻנָּה גְדוֹלָה הִזְכִּיר לוֹ, וְאָמַר, וַיַּרְא פִּינְחָס [וְגוֹ'] וַיִּקַּח רֹמַח וְגוֹ’, וַיִּדְקֹר אֶת שְׁנֵיהֶם וְגוֹ’. כֵּיוָן שֶׁהֶעֱלָהוּ לִכְהֻנָּה גְדוֹלָה, לֹא הִזְכִּיר שְׁמוֹ בַּהֶרֶג, שֶׁלֹּא רָאוּי לוֹ, וְחָס עָלָיו כְּבוֹד הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, שֶׁכֹּהֵן גָּדוֹל לֹא רָאוּי לְהַזְכִּיר בְּהֶרֶג. וְשֵׁם הָאִשָּׁה הַמֻּכָּה, גַּם כָּךְ.

Pinchas 155-157

Numbers 25:7 “וַיַּרְא, פִּינְחָס בֶּן-אֶלְעָזָר, בֶּן-אַהֲרֹן, הַכֹּהֵן; וַיָּקָם מִתּוֹךְ הָעֵדָה, וַיִּקַּח רֹמַח בְּיָדוֹ”
“And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand.”

The name of Pinchas was mentioned as the one who saw the negativity and run to correct it.

God gave him eternal priesthood and from that point, the Torah doesn’t mention his name in relation to the killing.

Numbers 25:8 “ וַיִּדְקֹר אֶת-שְׁנֵיהֶם” “and thrust both of them through”
Numbers 25:15
“ וְשֵׁם הָאִשָּׁה הַמֻּכָּה הַמִּדְיָנִית” “And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was ”

The Zohar tells us that God honored Pinchas by not mentioning his name as the one who made the killing. The act of killing automatically took away the priesthood from him but came back with the reincarnations of the souls of Nadav and Avihu together with his. In addition God promised him eternal priest hood.

Respecting others is a spiritual connection. We can’t see or understand the true motives and actions of others. Everyone in this world has a part in the system and completing the Tikkun of the world. We should respect everyone for doing little services for us. Practice saying “Thank you” and “I appreciate…” to bring light to every positive situation.

    Thank you dear Zion,

    respect the Light
    in others
    respect them
    when we don’t understand
    respect them when they hurt us
    respect what the Light tell us
    respect if it’s too long for us
    that’s also what I’ve heard in Ouman
    was wispering Rabbi Nahman ….

  2. “Hashem shall fight the war for you, and you shall remain silent.”

    (Exodus 14:14).

    Interesting, the above passage is Exodus, chapter 14, verse 14. 14 is the numerical value of the Hebrew word for “hand” -Yad. And, 28 (2x14) is the numerical value of the Hebrew word for “power” -- Koach.

    To this day, Hashem’s mighty hand is fighting the war for us. So isn’t it logical that the Israeli Government shouldn’t bite the hand that not only feeds us, but fights for us too? Once again, that’s Hashem’s hand.

    Throughout modern Israeli history, every time the government attempted to disrupt Torah learning, war broke out. Hashem seems to be saying, “Oh, you politicians have time to meddle with My Torah learners, I’ll send some enemy to meddle with you and to keep you busy.” But non-emuna eyes are blind, so they fail to see the connection.

    The recent Gaza hostilities and the GRAD missiles that reached as far as Tel Aviv came right after all the populist gab of drafting Yeshiva boys. And now, as Bibi dreams of his secular honeymoon with Lapid and a Haredi-less Israeli government, the threat of war in the north amid the chaos in Syria is mounting every minute, and chemical weapons of mass destruction are about to fall into the hands of either Jihadi Sunnis or Hizbullah Shiites. Tension is very high here now. Only a blind man or a fool can’t connect the dots.

    For years, I’ve been an active supporter of the Nachal Haredi. Emuna Outreach has been fighting in every possible way for Haredim to receive the necessary conditions they need to serve, such as glatt-kosher food and time for prayers and Torah. I vehemently oppose Haredi draft dodging, and if it were up to me, any young man who is not learning Torah would be doing either national civil service or military service, immediately. But Heaven forbid if one serious young man is yanked away from his Gemara.

    What? do you think that Hamas doesn’t know how to direct their rocket fire? Is the IDF responsible for all the missiles that fell in parking lots between high-rise buildings, and not on the high-rises themselves? No, that’s the power of Torah.

    I’d suggest that the government focus its animosity on our enemies, and not on our spiritual front line of defense. If we want Hashem to continue fighting for us, then we cannot lay down any of our own weapons, military and spiritual. Reducing Torah learning is not a shot in the foot, it’s a shot in the soul. The only thing worse than a dead body is a dead soul. It’s time to strengthen Torah, not to weaken it.

      Grateful Sarah for enlightening on the matter

    • avatar lorie says:

      May G-d’s hand move on the decision makers of Universal security to open them up to receive the necessary insights, knowledge, understanding, wisdom and whatever it is necessary to realize the importance of securing the safety of the people who pray who have already given up their lives to do what G-d has called them to do.

  3. avatar Lea says:

    Great study, Zion,
    thank you very much,

    indeed, there is no obligation to like the other or agree with the point of view of the other, what is needed is to have RESPECT for the other.
    Respecting each other is the first step in the refinement of character, both of oneself as everything and everyone around and beyond, thus paving the way for the manifestation of the true and real LOVE.

    Light to all always,

  4. avatar lorie says:

    Thank you so much for allowing me to just say Thank You. I was not sure it was enough to just say thank you when i just did not have more words to say, so i erased my thank you and said nothing. So today I say, “Thank you very very much and for all the times i did not say it, thank you again, again, and again, and many, many, more thank yous.”

    You are so cool every One.
    Hugs

  5. avatar Judith says:

    *Boundaries of Freedom*
    “This is the Will of G-D, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men—as free, yet not using liberty as a cloak for vice, but as bond-servants of G-D.”
    1 Kefa 2:13-17

    As you said Zion, R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

    Respect the LORD!
    Respect All People!
    For LOVE covers a multitude of sins (errors and omissions).
