UTN Topics
As a nation of priests, we are instructed to deal with the art of living, and not to be swept away by the debilitating illusion of death. All that G-d brings about in His world is pure kindness, even that which so troubles the soul.

A Call to Holiness: “You shall be holy for I, HaShem, your G-d, am holy.” (Lev. 19:1) A tall order, for sure, but G-d seems to think that we’re up for it. He calls upon and expects that each and every individual, as well as the entire assembly of Israel is capable of being holy and of leading holy lives. Being holy involves dedicating our entire souls and bodies to doing what’s good in G-d’s eyes, today and in this world.

When our body aches we know it is telling us something. What if our body could warn us as to a spiritual transgression on our part? Tzara’at, often, but incorrectly translated as leprosy, was a spiritual affliction contracted by the Israelites in the desert when their social behavior betrayed a coarsening of their spirit. Thus warned, they could mend their ways, and return to their people.

The light of G-d’s blessing is dynamic and we must live our everyday lives in a spiritually dynamic way in order to be always receiving His light. Nadav and Avihu, the sons of Aharon tried to freeze time and eternalize the moment, and for this they paid a tragic price.

The korban – offering: What’s it all about, and what does it have to do with you? The korban chatat – sin offering – is not a “get out of jail free” proposition, but a life-changing experience that, if done with sincerity, compels the bringer of the korban to take stock of himself and re-prioritize who he is and where he stands before G-d.
Tzav (Leviticus 6:1-8:36)

As we begin the book of Leviticus, (Vayikra), the third of the five books of Moses, the Torah gets down to the heart of the matter: The korbanot offerings made in the Tabernacle, (and the Holy Temple). These commandments which are difficult for us to understand and maybe even hard to warm up to, are, nevertheless, an expression of G-d’s will, and a test of our faith in Him, and our desire to perform His will.
