Annual (Leviticus 16:1 – 20:27): Etz Hayim, p. 679; Hertz p. 480

Prepared by Rabbi Adam Rosenbaum, Charleston, SC
Returning to the immediate aftermath of Nadav and Avihu’s deaths, Aaron is
disallowed from entering the Holy of Holies at will. God instructs Moses to
guide his brother and remaining nephews in a ritual for the Day of Atonement.
Included in the ritual are two goats, one designatd for “Azazel,” which carries
the burdens of the people’s sins. Yom Kippur is defined as a day of self-denial
to make expiation for all Israelite sins.
General guidelines for sacrificing are detailed, including the need to present
slaughtered animals to the Tabernacle, and to avoid consuming blood.
In an effort to avoid Egyptian or Canaanite laws, the people are instructed to
steer clear from improper sexual relations, including incest and bestiality, lest
the Promised Land become defiled.
One of the Torah’s seminal chapters, Leviticus 19 exhorts the Israelites to be
holy because God is holy. Holiness is achieved, in part, by honoring our
parents, protecting our children, rejecting idolatry, giving to the poor, offering
sacrifices sincerely, and dealing with strangers and neighbors with decency
and fairness.
The second part of the portion, Leviticus 20, returns to some of the same
themes, focusing heavily on sexual ethics and avoiding idolatry.
Theme #1: Don’t Walk Like an Egyptian
You shall not copy the practices of the land of Egypt where you dwelt, or of the
land of Canaan to which I am taking you; nor shall you follow their laws. My
rules alone shall you observe, and faithfully follow My laws: I the Lord am your
God.(Leviticus 18:3-4)
God challenges the Chosen People to remain unique, even when surrounded
by those whose practices are completely different.
During the reign of Czar Nicholas I of Russia, a decree was issued by the
government that Jews were required to wear hats with visors (or brims) just
like Gentiles. This created a storm among the Jews: “A Gentile law” -- “Let him
be killed rather than transgress.” [During times of persecution people can die
even over something as trifling as a shoelace.] Chasidim sat in the study
house of Rabbi Menachem Mendl of Kotzk in heated and furious debate.
Some were religiously strict, others lenient. Suddenly, the rebbe opened the
door and asked, “Why the commotion? What has happened?” They replied to
him that the government had issued a decree that Jews must change the way
they dress, and clothe themselves like Gentiles. “The clothing of Jews is only
tallis and tefillin,” snapped the rebbe. And he closed the door as he left. -Menachem Mendl of Kotsk
The passage should be interpreted in its plain sense. If you follow the practices
of the Egyptians -- for what purpose did I bring you out of Egypt? If you follow
the practices of the Canaanites, why should I expel them for your sakes? On
this condition did I bring you out of Egypt and on this condition did I drive out
the Canaanites -- that you should not emulate their deeds. -- Be’er Yitzhak
Those non-Jewish practices and insights which strengthen Jewish survival,
which sensitize us as a people, which teach us how to be loving, caring, and
sensitive, which increase our understanding of Judaism and prompt us to
practice it fully, pose no threat to our Jewishness. On the contrary, we benefit
from their inclusion. An openness to learn, however, should not be mistaken
for the blind adoption of all Gentile standards. … Much in modern life deserves
our opposition. But insights that strengthen Torah, that make Jewish identity
vibrant and central, deserve our study and our adoption. -- Rabbi Bradley
Shavit Artson, The Bedside Torah
Questions for Discussion:
In the story above, Menachem Mendl of Kotsk feels that rules regarding
"Jewish fashion" are irrelevant, as long as Jews are allowed to continue
wearing ritual garments at the appropriate times. Do religious freedoms
supersede the freedom to express our Jewish culture? Or are they one and the
same? Is Menachem Mendl's reaction helpful to those who have just had a
sense of independence taken away from them?
Be'er Yitzhak notes that Jewish independence and Jewish uniqueness go hand
in hand. But is it important to act differently than other nations just for the
sake of remaining different? Are there matters of style that do not impact
religious observance?
Rabbi Artson attempts to strike a balance between the adoption of sensible
non-Jewish practices and simply doing everything that non-Jews do for the
sake of convenience. Can we safely adopt the idea of "When in Rome, do as
the Romans do" in modern society better than we have been able to in the
past? What is the line that separates sensible non-Jewish practice and
watering Judaism down so much that it is unrecognizable?
Theme #2: Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda
Speak to the whole Israelite community and say to them: You shall be holy, for
I, the Lord your God, am holy. You shall each revere his mother and his father,
and keep My sabbaths: I the Lord am your God. (Leviticus 19:2-3)
In Leviticus 19, perhaps the ultimate treatise on holiness in the Hebrew Bible,
imitating God begins with revering one's parents.
What is the relationship here between revering parents and keeping Shabbat?
An explanation may be found in Leviticus Rabbah 14:5, which reads: “King
David said before the Holy One, ‘Lord the Universe, did my father, Jesse, have
the intention of bringing me into being?’ Wasn’t his intention really just his own
pleasure? And you know that this is so because after they had satisfied their
desire, he turned his face in one direction and she turned her face in the
other! … And this is what David meant when he said in Psalm 27:10, “Though
my father and mother abandon me, the Lord will take me in.” “Though my
father and mother abandon me” seems to imply here that their only function
was the beginning of life; and “the Lord will take me in” implies that afterward
one grows up and understands about God’s plan. Now Shabbat is the
culmination of the work of creation. And if we were supposed to preoccupy
ourselves only with the beginning, we would logically sanctify Sunday, since it
is the first day of creation. But if this is so, it seems that commandments
about Shabbat and honoring parents contradict one another. The explanation
is that with the honoring of parents, we are commanded regarding revering
the importance of origins, while with the keeping of Shabbat, we are
commanded regarding the goal of creation. And for this reason we are
commanded to both honor parents and keep Shabbat. -- Chatam Sofer
You must honor your parents not only while you still look to them for your food,
clothing and support but even when you are a “man” and no longer dependent
upon them. -- Ketav Sofer
When looking at [this verse] … Rashi also questions the use of the
singular ish for man with the plural form of the verb “fear.” His answer to the
problem reflects his own bias. He says “a man has it in his power to do, but a
woman has the authority of others over her.” … When [Rashi] explains why the
verse places the word mother before father, he claims that it is because a son
naturally fears his father more than his mother. Having exempted women from
this obligation, Rashi speaks only of what a son must do. Women, daughters,
are not included in his interpretation. -- Rabbi Rachel Esserman, “Who Shall
Be Holy,” from The Women’s Torah Commentary, Rabbi Elyse Goldstein, ed.
Questions for Discussion:
Chatam Sofer says that the link between honoring parents and Shabbat is that
both have to do with creation; in our parents' case, the creation of a person,
and in the case of Shabbat, the creation of the world. Does the importance
that Judaism places on being fruitful and multiplying indicate that creating a
new human being is like imitating God? Is new human life the ultimate
example of the merging of God's creation and humanity's creation?
Ketav Sofer notes that our responsibility to place our parents in a primary role
of our lives does not end when we have become adults. Rather, we are to
continue to show our gratitude to them for all they have done for us. Can we
understand Shabbat in a similar way? Even though adults are able to
understand the value of taking periodic breaks from the everyday, is honoring
Shabbat a way of revering God even if we might not need Shabbat to remind
us of God's presence?
Rabbi Esserman notes that Rashi's commentary does not consider a
daughter's role in honoring her parents. While egalitarian communities
certainly expect both sons and daughters to honor their parents, is it possible
that a daughter can appreciate her parents in a way that is unique compared
to how a son appreciates his parents? What do both genders offer when it
comes to honoring their parents?
