Introduction
This Torah Portion goes from Numbers 19:1-22:1
Chukat - Statute - Law
Chukat - Statute - Law
4 Types of Laws - Commandments - as translated in our Bibles
Mitzvah (Mitzvot) - Commandments
Mishpat (Mishpatim)- Ordinance
Chukat/Chuk (Chukot/Chukim) Statute
Torah (Torot) Law/ Instruction
But for some Rabbinical commentaries:
Torah 613
The written Torah of Moses is filled with various imperatives of one kind or another.
Mitzvah is a general term used to refer to any commandment given by God
Some rabbinical commentaries divide the Torah in 3:
Eidot- are testimonials (from the root “ed” - witness) - serve to commemorate or represent something (foreshadow of something that happened or to come)- eg.
Shabbat , tzitzit, matzah on Passover, blow the shofar
Mishpatim- clearly specified laws - logical -eg.
give to charity and the law of theft, murder- good for the ethical/moral unity of the community
Chukkim - w/o reason (fiats /decrees - divine - eg. sing=chukkah, Red Heifer, not mixing seeds and fabrics (kilayim)
Obedience 613
Commandements: Obedience
Eidot- Testimonies - Trust
Mishpatim- logical laws - Understanding
Chukkim - Statutes - Faith
Red Heifer
Red Heifer
Red
If we separate the two words and read from right to left, we end up with: Heifer/cow and Red, which means ground like in Gen 2:7
Ground
It is the same word used in Gen 4:10 when Cain kills Abel.
Ground
Adamah
Ground which also means Adam
Adam
Adam - like the name given in Genesis 2:15
-It’s a bloody man taken from the ground that needs a Statute for his sanctification
-The Red Heifer addresses the disobedience in Exodus 32- idolatry borrowed from Egypt
Golden Calf
