Okay, good morning friends. Parshas Korach, want to share with you three sharp divrei Torah on Parshas Korach from the safer Pninei Kedem. First one from Rav Hagoin Rabbi Pinchas the Baal Machaber safer Bris Shalom. The Gemara Sanhedrin kuf tes amud bray brings Amarav Oin ben Peles was saved by his wife. She says to him, "What nafka mina is it? You have nothing to gain over here. Either way you're second fiddle. So Moshe's the leader, you're second fiddle. Korach's the leader, you're second fiddle. I understand Korach has something to gain. He's challenging the whole institution and he wants it. But either way you're going to have to play second fiddle to him. You have nothing to gain." So Oin ben Peles says, "What do you want me to do? I swore to him." So she gave him some yayin and she put him to sleep and she stood by the opening of the tent and she undid her hair, she uncovered her hair, and heaven forbid will a Baal Machlokes look at a woman's uncovered hair because you know, destroying the Jewish people, that's not such a a big deal, but heaven forbid to look at davar bilti tznuah. No, no, no, no, no. That's not that is not activity for a frumme Baal Machlokes. So they stayed away. So ask the kasha like this. What do you mean he has nothing to gain? He has a lot to gain. You see, if they undo the whole institution of kehuna, maybe one day Oin ben Peles's kids will be the Kohanim Gedolim. He has a lot to gain. Right now the kehuna gedola is not possible for his family, but if they undo the kehuna institution, maybe Oin ben Peles, they got a shot at the kehuna gedola. That's why she uncovered her hair cuz Gemara says in Yuma about Kimchis, she was zoicha to Kohanim Gedolim because the beams of her house never saw the braids of her hair. So, she figured that if by covering hair, you're to go to by uncovering hair, you won't be to go to this way I'm going to pass is nothing to gain and this was her way of keeping him out of the market. Okay, that's that's the of pinchos. Now, it says the matter says the had a big dilemma what to do when they saw my iron. When they saw my show, they said if we're going to get a stand up for him, dad's going to be upset. If we're not going to be if we don't get up for him, my show will be upset. They didn't know what to do. When they saw all of standing, they stood along. They also stood. Exactly what's how how did that solve their debate? They have a dilemma. They don't know. They don't know what to do. If they stand up, he's going to be upset. They don't stand up, he'll be upset. So, when they saw all of stand, they stood also. How was that how does that solve the dilemma? So, says how do you know you follow right? We learn it out from of you must. Why are you me so if you hit your father? How do you know he's your father? How do you know he's your father? You have a dam? So, why are you follow that means the whole dinner of comes from right. So, he said like this. When all of stands up, we'll follow the right. I don't know my dad will be upset. We'll say well, wait a second. If you hold that there's no then we don't have a in the first place. So, they put themselves in a of where they said look, you know, if we don't if there's no dinner right there's no dinner keyboard if there is a dinner right we got to follow the right of what class role are doing and now from of me Thomas of Why biker I in Russia But he says as follows The says that the Sun and the Moon Went up from the to the wall and they said we shall alarm If you defend the moisture from we will shine otherwise we're off we're out of here we're not working the sun said to we will not be working anymore if you don't stand up for my show so therefore my show said in the morning you'll know biker the Yoda has if the sun is shining So then is going to have to defend me and otherwise the sun won't be shining so my show said we got to we got to wait till the morning you'll see what's going to happen in the morning cuz in the morning the sun's going to have to keep the world running so the sun's going to have to shine and then the sun's going to have to uh Uh verify my appointments please join us tonight At 8:30 for the weekly show tonight show is about the saga of the show and we're continuing from last week today we're going to tonight we're going to speak about the building of the and the debacle of its inauguration Have a great day everyone thanks for joining >> Recording stopped
