Dvar Torah Parshas Nasso by Rabbi Ari Galandauer

There is an interesting similarity between a kohen and a nazir. Both are

not allowed to become tamei through contact with the dead. The nazir

however seems to be a more stringent case, for a kohen is allowed to

become tamei for his seven closest relatives, whereas a nazir may not

become tamei at all even for close relatives. One would have thought the

opposite, that a kohen whose kedusha is from birth and lasts forever

would have the more stringent rule of never becoming tamei, while the

nazir whose kedusha is temporary would have the more lenient rule and

be allowed to become tamei for relatives, and yet that is not the case?

The Gerer Rebbe explains that a significant difference between a kohen

and a nazir is that the kedusha of a kohen is inherited, while by a nazir it

is self made. A kohen doesn't have to do anything to receive his kedusha,

granted that he must maintain it, but initially it is given to him by virtue of

being born to a kohen. Therefore he can and must become tamei for his

close relatives, as he owes his kedusha to them. A nazir on the other

hand acquires his kedusha through his own efforts, often in spite of his

family. The nazir recognizes and understands the need for spiritual growth

and undertakes the nezirus process out of the strong determination to

come closer to Hashem. His kedusha is self made and he therefore may

not become tamei even to his immediate family. It is interesting to note

how so often today we are impressed with someone's yichus and base

many important decisions on that factor alone. Perhaps the lesson for us

is to gain a greater appreciation for self made kedusha, and appreciate

the holiness of every individual. Shabbat Shalom.

The Kohanim bless us with the ‘Bracha’ found in this week’s Sedrah. However, the Kohanim cannot give us the ‘Bracha’ until they receive permission from the ‘Shaliach Tzibur’ the one leading the ‘davening’. As holy as the Kohanim are, the ‘Kehilah’ is more important.

Naso in a Nutshell Source: Chabad.org

Completing the headcount of the Children of Israel taken in the Sinai Desert, a total of 8,580 Levite men between the ages of 30 and 50 are counted in a tally of those who will be doing the actual work of transporting the Tabernacle.

G-d communicates to Moses the law of the sotah, the wayward wife suspected of unfaithfulness to her husband. Also given is the law of the nazir, who forswears wine, lets his or her hair grow long, and is forbidden to become contaminated through contact with a dead body. Aaron and his descendants, the kohanim, are instructed on how to bless the people of Israel.

The leaders of the twelve tribes of Israel each bring their offerings for the inauguration of the altar. Although their gifts are identical, each is brought on a different day and is individually described by the Torah.

Naso Haftorah in a Nutshell Source: Chabad.org

Judges 13:2-25

This week's Haftorah describes the birth of Samson, a lifetime nazirite. A condign Haftorah for this week's reading, which discusses all the laws of the nazirite.

Manoah and his wife, members of the Tribe of Dan, were childless. One day an angel appeared to Manoah's wife, informing her that she will give birth to a child. This child, the angel instructed, was to be a lifetime Nazirite. In addition, the angel instructed her to abstain from all foods forbidden to a nazirite — such as wine or ritually impure foods — from the moment she would conceive. The angel further informed the woman that her son will save the Jewish people from the Philistine oppression they were enduring at that time.

The soon-to-be-mother told her husband the good news. He entreated G-d to send His messenger again — they were unaware at the time that the messenger was an angel. G-d sent the angel again, and he repeated his instructions. Manoah and his wife then invited the angel to partake of a special meal they would prepare, but he declined. Instead he encouraged Manoah to offer the goat he wished to slaughter for the meal as a sacrifice to G-d. The angel then ascended to the heavens in the flame that devoured the sacrifice.

The Haftorah ends with the birth of Samson: "And the lad grew, and G-d blessed him."
