Harav Aharon Lichtenstein The Daily Sacrifices The month of Tammuz is a month of infamy. It includes two dates that commemorate terrible suffering that befell Am Yisrael – the 9th and the 17th. But unlike Av, in which the fasting and mourning over the destruction are followed by our celebration on the 15th of the month, in Tammuz there is not a single joyous day to balance the tragedy.

Harav Yaakov Medan Leadership Parashat Pinchas presents two models of leadership: that of Pinchas and that of Yehoshua. Yehoshua's leadership style is characterized by close, step-by-step accompaniment of Moshe, the previous leader, until Yehoshua is appointed as his successor. This process, by definition, entails the new leader assuming his position at a relatively late stage in life. Indeed, according to the Seder Olam, Yehoshua was 82 years old when Moshe passed away.

Harav Mosheh Lichtenstein “In Place of Your Fathers Shall Be Your Children”: The Philosophical Principles of Inheritance Parashat Pinchas addresses the concepts of inheritance and the portion of the firstborn, which are fleshed out in chapter Yesh Nochalin in Bava Batra. What are the philosophical underpinnings of the concept of inheritance? Why does the Torah deem the transmission of physical property to be so important? Why does the firstborn receive an extra portion and what does Tanakh tell us about firstborns? And how does all this relate to our connection with God? Sichot Roshei Yeshiva

Harav Yaakov Medan Broken Zealotry Parashat Pinchas begins with praise of Pinchas's act of zealotry. Chazal teach us that he knew what to do under the circumstances because he had learned it from Moshe Rabbeinu. What does this mean, and what can we learn about zealotry from Pinchas's actions?
