Precious Details: The Power of Self-Sacrifice
Parashat Pinchas: When We Push Ourselves
In this week’s parasha, we read about the reward of Pinchas for his heroic act which stopped a plague and brought peace between the Jewish People and Hashem. Normally, an act of killing would make a person lose his privileges as a Kohen, but in this case it was just the opposite. It elevated Pinchas to become a Kohen, because his intentions were so pure, which only Hashem could know. And because he was willing to risk everything l’shem Shamayim, Hashem helped him in an extraordinary way accomplish his goal and He blessed him with the Kehuna.
When we push ourselves and sacrifice for Hashem, He lifts us up and brings us success.
Shabbat Shalom!
