Rabbi Immanuel Bernstein 2023 / 5783 Pshuto PSHUTOShel Mikra SHEL MIKRA From the Teachings of Rav Yehuda Copperman zt”l Parshat shelach Explicit Statements and Implicit Messages in the Torah ‫וַ יִ ּהְ יּו בְ נֵי יִשְ ָׂראֵ ל בַ ּמִ ְּדבָ ּר וַ יִ ּמְ צְ אּו אִ יׁש מְ קֹ שֵ ׁׁש עֵ צִ ים בְ ּיוֹם הַ שַ ּׁבָ ּת‬ B’nei Yisrael were in the wilderness, and they found a man gathering wood on the day of Shabbat (Bamidbar 15:32) Identifying the Mekoshesh The end of our parsha discusses the episode of the Mekoshesh, the person who violated Shabbat while B’nei Yisrael were in the Midbar, and whose case was referred first to Moshe, and then to Hashem Himself. v’ish): Perhaps the reason the pasuk does not mention his name5 is that it does not wish to reveal his identity, since it was through him the Mekalel cursed Hashem’s Name, and it is known that positive things are brought about through the agency of worthy people, and the negative things through unworthy people.6 For Hashem does not wish to embarrass a person, and certainly not in the Torah where the mark (‫ )רושם‬will remain for all time. The lack of evil intent within the aveirah meant that he did not deserve to have his name associated with his aveirah in Torah Shebichtav.10 10 [The idea that Tzelafchad was guilty of some wrongdoing is itself mentioned in the pasuk (Bamidbar 27:3), where his daughters say “‫ — בחטאו מת‬He died on account of his sin.” Perhaps we may explain this situation based on the principle which the Rav discussed many times throughout the sefer, namely, that words which the Torah quotes someone as saying differ in certain respects from the words of the Torah “itself.” In this case, since Tzelafchad did in fact violate a prohibition for which he deserved to be killed, this is mentioned explicitly in the pasuk. Either way you will need to give a reckoning in the future.3 If it is as you say — the One Who spoke and brought the world into being concealed his identity and you reveal it?” And if it is not as you say — you are slandering that tzaddik!4 This entire exchange is quite fascinating. On the one hand, R’ Akiva’s could respond to R’ Yehudah ben Beteira’s criticism
