This Week’s Torah Portion: B’midbar – בְּמִדבַּר (Numbers 1:1−4:20)

Mazal tov! We begin a new book of the Torah, the book of Numbers. The people of Israel will be counted time and again. We must be aware that in this book not everyone is counted. Women are not counted. We should strive to create a society where every person counts!

Parsha B’midbar – בְּמִדבַּר Torah Summary:

God commands Moses to take a census of all the Israelite males over the age of twenty. (1:1-46) The duties of the Levites, who are not included in the census, are detailed. (1:47-51) Each tribe is assigned specific places in the camp around the Tabernacle. (1:52-2:34) The sons of Levi are counted and their responsibilities are set forth. (3:1-3:39) A census of the firstborn males is taken and a special redemption tax is levied on them. (3:40-51) God instructs Moses and Aaron regarding the responsibilities of Aaron and his sons, and the duties assigned to the Kohathites. (4:1-20) B’midbar – בְּמִדבַּר Mazal tov!
