Hukat | Numbers 19:21 – 22:1

This week’s portion, Hukat, is action-packed. The red heifer is introduced, Miriam and Aaron both die, and Moses strikes a rock in anger to bring forth water. Moses then faces serious consequences for striking the rock instead of speaking to it. There are so many explanations for this story that Shmuel compiled a list!

From the anger of Moses to the red heifers in Shiloh in 2024, Shmuel shares his insight and emphasizes the importance of living by faith.

Shabbat Shalom!
