Parshat Pinchas
Diamonds and Settings:
Torah Portions Through the Eyes of Our Scholars
Volume 7

This lecture deals with the request of the daughters of Tzlofchad to inherit land. The language that is used by the daughters to describe their father is a springboard on how negative language can be viewed in a positive light. In addition, the bravery and sacrifice of Pinchas is studied, along with his Priestly reward and why he was blessed to become a member of the holy leaders of Israel.
