In commenting on the words "These are the children of Aharon and Moshe," Rashi notes: "He only mentions Aharon's children." So why is Moshe included here?2 Rashi goes on to explain that Aharon's children are also called Moshe's children, inasmuch as "Whoever teaches his friend's son Torah is considered as if he bore him."3 Since Moshe singled out Aharon's children for 1 Bamidbar 3:1-2. Rashi goes on to comment on the words "on the day that G-d spoke to Moshe": "They [then] became his children, for he taught them that which he learned from the A-lmighty." What is Rashi adding to his previous explanation that by Moshe teaching Aharon's sons Torah they are considered his? However, these were Aharon's children in the literal sense and Moshe's only in the figurative sense - "Whoever teaches his friend's son Torah is considered as if he bore him." How, then, are they considered Moshe's children to the same extent as they are Aharon's? Prior to this, we were a nation "among all nations," but through Mattan Torah we became exceptional and distinct - a "special treasure among all nations," "a kingdom of priests and a holy nation."

Rashi therefore emphasizes "for he taught them that which he learned from the A-mighty:" Since the Torah that Moshe taught Aharon's children was the Torah that he himself had learned from the A-mighty, it had within it the power of Mattan Torah, the power that can change the very being of a Jew. Rashi provides the answer
