Chukas – Between a Rock and a Wet Place (5782)

Parshas Chukas contains some of the most interesting and iconic sections of the Torah. It begins with the mysterious red cow, a blush bovine whose burnt ashes are part of the cleansing cocktail needed to purify the impure. Afterwards, we read about the death of Miriam and its aftermath, including the cessation of the well of Miriam, an event that precipitated the striking of the Rock by Moshe and Aaron. In this special edition of the Parsha Podcast, we discuss the death of Miriam and Aaron and its associated lessons. – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php .
