In this way, Korach was not unlike Adam and Isha/Chava who desired the one fruit they could not have, Kayin who desired to be Hevel, and Haman who found no joy with his over owing blessings because one Jew would not bow down to him. Korach - a rst cousin of Moshe and Aharon - together with Dasan, Aviram, and two hundred and fty leaders of the nation (most of whom were from the tribe of Reuven), challenges the leadership of Moshe Rabbeinu and Aharon Ha’Kohen. In Pirkei Avos, Rabbi Elazar HaKapar teaches: ‫הַּקִנְאָה וְהַּתַאֲוָה וְהַּכָבֹוד מֹוצִיאִין אֶת הָאָָדם מִן‬ ‫ הָעֹולָם‬- Jealousy, desire, and the pursuit of honor remove a person from the world (Avos 4:21). He declares: ‫ ּכִי כָל הָעֵָדה ּכֻּלָם ְקדׁשִים‬- For the entire congregation is holy and among them is (the Presence of G-d), and why do you raise yourselves over the assembly of G-d (Bamidbar 16:3)? Korach's downfall began with ‫ קנאה‬- jealousy (In his Sichos Mussar on Parshas Korach, Rav Chaim Shmulevitz zt’l develops this idea more fully.) Jealousy has a unique power to distort perspective. The antidote to jealousy is recognizing that Hashem gives every person exactly the tools necessary to accomplish his or her unique purpose (Who is a wealthy person? These traits do not merely lead a person www.michalhorowitz.com - mosaicapress.com/Abled 1 of 2 fi fi fi fi fi fl A Short Vort - Korach 5786 (6.26) BS”D astray. May we distance ourselves from jealousy, toxic desire, and the pursuit of honor, and instead cultivate gratitude, humility, and self-awareness. Perhaps this is precisely what Rabbi Elazar HaKapar means when he teaches that jealousy, desire, and honor remove a person from the world. A person may possess countless blessings, yet become unable to appreciate them because his attention is xed on someone else's success.
