A View of the Parashah: Masei

 

     The route taken by the Israelites from Egypt to the steppes of Moab and the events that occurred along the way are recounted. At Moab, God tells Moses to instruct the Israelites about settling the land across the Jordan. They are to dispossess all its inhabitants, destroy their gods, and apportion the land among the tribes by lot.

     The boundaries of the land are set. The Israelites are to assign, out of their holdings, towns and pasture lands to the Levites.

     Laws are given citing the circumstances and manner in which murder (both intentional and unintentional) is to be judged and punished.

     The descendants of Manasseh appeal to Moses and the Elders concerning the case of the daughters of Zelophehad. They allege that if the daughters marry persons from another tribe, their land holdings will be added to those of the tribe into which they marry, thus diminishing the size of the lands of Manasseh. Moses, therefore rules that the daughters of Zelophehad must marry within their father’s tribe. This is based on the general statement that no tribe’s inheritance may pass to another tribe.

     The Book of Numbers concludes with the statement: “These are the commandments and regulations that the Lord enjoined upon the Israelites, through  Moses, on the steppes of Moab, at the Jordan near Jericho.”

Family Tot Shabbat

The Family Tot Shabbat service is offered every Shabbat morning beginning at 10:30 a.m.

The service is designed for children and their parents to share Shabbat with other families in a warm, relaxed atmosphere. The children sing songs and prayers, march in their own "torah procession," hear a Torah or Shabbat story, and celebrate birthdays in a service that follows the structure of the traditional Shabbat morning service.

The Family Tot Shabbat service then concludes with a Kiddush for the families, before joining the congregation in the main sanctuary for the conclusion of the service and the congregational Kiddush.
