The City Gate Messianic Bible Study with Rav Andrew
Parasha 041 Pinchas
B'midbar/ Numbers
25:10–30:1
The name of the
Parshah, "Pinchas," refers to Phineas, who zealously avenged YEHOVAH'S
name, and it is found in Numbers 25:11.
Aaron’s grandson Pinchas is rewarded for his act of zealotry in killing
the Simeonite prince Zimri and the Midianite princess who was his
paramour: YEHOVAH grants him a covenant of peace and the priesthood.
A census of the people counts 601,730 men between the ages of twenty and
sixty. Moses is instructed on how the Land is to be divided by lottery
among the tribes and families of Israel. The five daughters of
Tzelafchad petition Moses that they be granted the portion of the land
belonging to their father, who died without sons; YEHOVAH accepts their
claim and incorporates it into the Torah’s laws of inheritance.
Moses empowers Joshua to succeed him and lead the people into the Land
of Israel.
The Parshah concludes with a detailed list of the daily offerings, and
the additional offerings brought on Shabbat, Rosh Chodesh (first of the
month), and the festivals of Passover, Shavuot, Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur,
Sukkot and Shemini Atzeret.
