Pinchas 5786 - When Conviction Isn't Enough

from Mussar HaTorah · host Aaron Benedict

The Torah says Pinchas took vengeance for his God. Not for God — his God. It's a single possessive that raises an enormous question: what does it mean for Hashem's name to belong to a person? The answer, hidden in a Midrash about a donkey and a precious gem, reveals something unexpected about what Kiddush Hashem really requires — and why good intentions alone may not be enough.
