Shavuos
5 Sivan 5776 June 11, 2016
Bemidbar
The Torah Reading begins on page 513 in the Hirsch and page 726 in the Stone.
The Haftorah begins on page 888 in the Hirsch and page 1180 in the Stone.
This week’s Parsha opens with an account of the census taken of the Jewish
people before they entered the land of Israel. Ramban suggests this reckoning shows G-d’s
benevolence to the Jewish people. When we went down to Egypt we were naught but a
few souls. Now, look how numerous we have become. According to Rashi, this count was
an expression of G-d’s love. When you love something and it is dear to you, you count it.
Others explain the Jewish people were about to enter the land of Israel and wage war on
the Amerites. Therefore, in order for Moshe and Aharon to know how many men were
available to fight, they took a census of the Jewish people. Still others explain the purpose
of the count was in order to fairly, and evenly, divide up the land of Israel.
The next section of the Torah deals with the placement of the Jewish people as
they traveled in the desert, and the flags under which each tribe traveled.The Torah describes
how the tribes were divided into four groups, consisting of three tribes each.These groups
surrounded the tribe of Levi, who in turn surrounded the Mishkan (tabernacle). There is a
dispute among our sages as to whether each tribe had its own flag, or whether there was
one flag per group.The Netziv’s opinion is that every tribe had its own flag, and each family
within that tribe also had its own flag. Other commentators understand these divisions in
the encampments as bearing military significance. Still others see the arrangements of the
banners and the encampment within the realm of the spiritual. Those that explain it in a
spiritual context see the Mishkan at the center, as the representative of spirituality (Torah).
This remains in the center of the Jewish people, around which the entire nation evolves.
In a very interesting explanation in the Oznayim Latorah, Rabbi Sorotzkin explains
that the arrangement was made to ensure the internal division between each tribe. He
explains that every grouping consisted of tribes deriving from the same mother. In each
of the divisions there was at least one tribe characterized by valor. It is these tribes, and
each one of their divisions, that gave their particular division its personality and direction.
The Torah then lists the genealogy of Aharon and explains the status of the
Levites, and how they were taken as ministers in place of the first born. The Torah also
lists the census of the Levites, according to the families of Gershon, K’has and Merari. The
Parsha concludes with the duties of the Tribe of K’has and a general precaution for the
members of that tribe.

of Tears”
by
Chaim Wolgelernter
One of the only known wartime diaries written by an Orthodox Jew •
This diary was crafted as a memoir by its author, a gifted writer and
brilliant Talmudic scholar who lived in Dzialoszyce, Poland, while in
hiding during the years 1942-1944. The events, recorded as the war
unfolded, spring off the page with immediacy, urgency, and poignancy. • The author’s extraordinary eyewitness account comes to an abrupt end, as he was murdered - only months before liberation. • Saved from destruction, the diary lay untouched in a drawer for many years. Now, more than seventy years later, after undergoing painstaking transcription, translation, and research, the diary is finally being brought to light. • The diary/memoir of Chaim
Yitzchok Wolgelernter depicts the resilience and spiritual resistance of Jews during the Holocaust - as well as
the attitudes and actions of the Poles, ranging from Righteous Gentiles to those who collaborated with the Nazis.
Please join us for a special evening with Feivel Wolgelernter, Chaim’s surviving son, where he will
share with us stories about his father, his family, and his son, Nafti, who pushed for his grandfather’s
diary to be deciphered and translated.
There will also be a 30 minute “play reading” of an adaptation of the book by Leah Salovey, directed
by Todd Salovey.
