Parashat Korach Readings and Video Commentary

Numbers 16:1 – 18:32; (Rosch Chodesch) Hallel; Numbers 28:8-15; Isaiah 66:1-24

»”They say that vanity got the best of him…” Korach had it all: He was brilliant, well educated, a smooth talker, well versed in the art of communication. He was an aristocrat, a Levite whose privilege it was to bear the Ark of the Covenant across the desert. He was wealthy and well respected. He had it all but he wanted more. His “I, Me, Mine” attitude gave G-d no choice, as it were, but to put him out of His world. The earth opened up and swallowed him whole. Always seeking the limelight, “he sure left here in style”:«

Since my secession from the Church in 2009, my Jewish Orthodox friends in Israel and I have been following the Fake News of Rome in articles and political Shabbat commentaries on GSI (God's Sabbath Int.). The former Pontiff destroyed the dwelling place of God, the temple in Jerusalem – fact! Was the New Testament and the Church just a world dominance inspired business idea of Rome? What is politics today? Enjoy your trip on GSI.
