Korach June 24, 2009

Even post  Korach
The people complain to G-d
A plague kills thousands
–
Moses and Aaron
Have to ask  G-d, once again
Not to kill them all

Sh’lach L’cha June 16, 2009

A disturbing tale:
On Shabbat, the people see
Man gathering sticks
–
G-d informs Moses
That the whole community
Should stone him to death
–
And so it was done
Just as G-d had commanded
A fair punishment?

Levite pension plan
Had better be good, ’cause they
Retire at fifty

The Nazarite vow
No wine, haircuts, grapes, raisins
Just service to G-d
