“My Holy Grandfather, Korach”

“My Holy Grandfather, Korach”

By Rabbi Menasche Scharf, Finsbury Park Synagogue and Certification Manager, KLBD

“My holy grandfather, Korach”. This is how one of the great rabbis referred to Korach of our sidra.  Rabbi Naphtoly HaLevi Horowitz (1760-1827) was the Rabbi of Ropczyce (Poland).  He had a large following, who came from near and far to learn from his wisdom.  On one Shabbat, to the bewilderment of his listeners, he referred to Korach as “my holy grandfather, Korach”.

Rabbi Naphtoly explained that the Rabbinic Horowitz family - a family that dates back to medieval times - descends from the prophet Shmuel (Samuel), who in turn was a descendant of Korach.

He then went on to extol the virtues of Korach as being one who - just like Moshe Rabbeinu (Moses, both were great-grandsons of Levi, the third of the twelve tribes) - possessed the qualities required to be a leader of the Jewish people:

1) Apart from being tall and handsome, his wisdom and leadership qualities were apparent even when the Jewish people were still enslaved in Egypt. Pharaoh appointed him as Chancellor of the Exchequer (Midrash). 

“As rich as Korach”

According to another opinion[1], Korach became extremely wealthy when he found one of the three vaults that were built by Joseph, who was Pharaoh’s Viceroy.  

During the seven years of abundance, Joseph collected the surplus produce and sold it to the neighbouring countries who were not as prepared for the years of hunger. 

The income from this trade made Egypt so wealthy that they had to store the money safely in three different places.

2) Jacob blessed Levi: May he be dispersed amongst the Jewish people to teach them the ways of God.  The tribe of Levi was holding up the torch of Torah for the Jewish people.  This was also the reason why the tribe of Levi did not suffer from the ravages of slavery, being that they never signed up for it to begin with, when the first edict to join the workforce was announced.

Therefore, Korach grew up in a sheltered environment, reaching greatness in Torah to a level that – for most members of the Jewish people - was out of reach.

Contrast this with his cousin Moshe, who was considered by the Jewish people as an ‘outsider’: He fled Egypt at age twelve and - after a 40-year hiatus in the land of Cush - ended up in Midian, where he married Tziporah, daughter of the local high priest Jethro.

In the chapter of Pirkei Avot (Ethics of our Fathers) for this week, we learn that jealousy is one of the three attributes that causes people to lose their part in the world to come[2].  This alludes to Korach, who - in his burning jealousy of Moshe, brought about his own destruction[3].

Korach set his sight on becoming leader of the Jewish people, following a vision that he had that the Jewish people in the holy land would be led by his successor.  This leadership position was really destined for the prophet Shmuel, some fifteen generations later.

May we all know our position in life and grow to our fullest potential!

Basic instructions to proof-read, correct and clean text:

Basic instructions to proof-read, correct and clean text:

1) Replace two single apostrophes with a single quotation mark: The following applies to whenever you are using double quotes for abbreviations, for open quote and for close quote: Instead of this: '' (= two apostrophes) - please, try to use this: " (= double Quotes)

If you can not see the difference then click "IN BETWEEN" the two apostrophes ' ' ...

2) Replace two spaces with a single space.

3) Replace the regular SPACE with a Non-Breaking SPACE

4) Remove all superfluous Paragraphs and spaces

5) Instead of holding down the Enter Key to generate a new page, this can be achieved by holding down the Ctrl Key and then pressing the Enter Key

6) When quoting what someone is saying, always use a Colon (“:”) and not a Period (“.) nor a Comma (“,).  Example: “The Berzhane Rov asked the Sar Shalom.” is wrong; “The Berzhane Rov asked the Sar Shalom:” is correct.

7) Whenever the Passuk starts with a “ו”, add the word “and” in front of the translation, as in the following example:

וישב משה את דברי העם אל השם (יתרו יט:ח)

AND Moshe relayed the words of the people to Hashem.

8) Whenever you use the word "and", please do not type a comma before it.

Example:

Fortunate are you in this world, and it is good to you in the World to Come. is incorrect

Fortunate are you in this world and it is good to you in the World to Come. is correct

Unsure if the word "HITCH" applies to connecting an animal toa wagon, so you better check this out before you go to print.

Instead of RAVS VORT - try: RAV’S VORT

Read all the Hebrew source material, like פסוקים and חז”ל to ensure the reader doesn’t becomes disappointed by the mistakes in the basic text.

Always add a space after a horizontal Ellipsis 

Always switch the Bold off before entering the closing quote ”: “כאיש אשר אמו תנחמנו” should be: “כאיש אשר אמו תנחמנו”

Read the translation of the English translation of the source material, to ensure the following objects are achieved: 

Wherever a Passuk starts with a The word “and” should be appended, like “ויאמר” should read: “And he said” or “ושחט” should read: “And he shall slaughter”.

Formatting

9) Always write out the Contractions and spell them out as Expansions; “it isn’t” nice to write “it isn’t” - try: “it is not”.

10) Italicise all translations of the headers, as in:

אדם כי יקריב מכם קרבן לשם… (ויקרא א:ב)

When a man among you brings an offering

More instructions

I don't think we have to write out the complete source of each vort, we can just put in (   ) at the end of the vort the name of who says this vort - it can be in Hebrew too.) for ex.

• It seems that the English/American Hebrew spelling differs.  For example: neshamah, parah adumah, bracha, hatzlacha - google also uses 'A's
• Translations we can just leave in (parenthesis). It's not necessary to place = sign.

Referencing

Always add the עמוד as in (תענית כו) should be (תענית כו:ב)

If the reference is in Hebrew - e.g. (תענית כו:ב) - always change it to English, as this will solve the problem of the closing bracket ending up in the wrong place:

Incorrect: “as it says in: “אורך ימים בימינה בשמאלה עושר וכבוד” (משלי ג:טז)“

Correct: “as it says (Proverbs 3:17): “אורך ימים בימינה בשמאלה עושר וכבוד”
