Parshas Chukas, Purity and Purpose

Parshas Chukas, Purity and Purpose The Parsha Perspective is in honor of Eretz Yisroel.  May G-d protect our brave soldiers.  May G-d return all the hostages in Gaza immediately.  The Parsha Perspective is in honor of the Refuah Shlema of HaRav Amitai Ben Shoshanna and those who need to experience a speedy and complete recovery with G-d's help.     The Parsha Perspective is in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. May their souls be uplifted and their memories a blessing. Click here to listen, watch and connect! Parshaperspective.com  Our Parsha begins with Moshe teaching the intricate laws of the Parah Adumah - the Red Heifer. The Parah Adumah is a red cow that was never used and is slaughtered as an offering.  Then, it is burnt, and its ashes are used to rectify the most severe of ritual impurities, Tum'as Mes, an impurity contracted through interacting with a human corpse. We find the difference between a home and a tent. We learn about our mission and purpose in this temporary world.
