    did not explain
    It was not explained why the Medrash needed to give the 2 examples in addition to what the Torah itself says

    Was Korach a victim?
    1) Korachs argument had a level of merit to it, he was subject to the very ideologies and realities that his name personified. He had all the issues of these distinct perspectives that warrants identity crisis and spiritual suicide, he was a victim to his very name that vivified him! Where in his name is the solution to the traps and trials of Kuf Raish and Ches???? I mean was that the point that he missed in the tallis; that the energy that permeates a person, and the Gdlyness from above is what aids one to bridge the gap between theory and pragmitism???



    2) The argument between the sun and the moon on the fourth day of creation(over leadership) realted in talmud Chulin, was that a discussion and not an argument because it does say ki tov on the fourth day?

    Really great classes
    I need to think more about the letters...but you gave many examples.
    I just didn't get why the Kuf is like the talit and tzizit...

    מזמור ליום שני
    ראיתי פעם שלכן בני קרח הם האומרים את המזמור ליום השני, שיר מזמור לבני קרח, היום אשר בו נולדה המחלוקת, לתקן את המעוות בבחינת ברא מזכה אבא.
    והרי זה ממש מתאים להשיעור. וזהו כעין אמירתם משה אמת ותורתו אמת, הן משה והן התורה, וגם אמת ראשי תיבות אהרן מזוזה תכלת.

    Todah Rabah for opening my eyes for the reality of worlds and that it is natural to struggle between.
