Torah (1)

This week we unwind the spectacle of Korach, a cousin to Moses and rebel leader among the children of Israel. Why did this man think he was able to challenge the authority of Moses and Aaron? What was the point of the silly questions he threw at Moses? Shmuel invites you to set aside logic and join him in exploring this fascinating portion. Shabbat Shalom!
