The Torah in this parsha goes through every single tribe, listing how many people (males above the age of 20) were in that tribe, and then at the end provides a final tabulation: “These were all the counted ones of the Children of Israel, according to their fathers’ house, from twenty years of age and up, everyone who goes out to the army in Israel: All their counted ones were 603,550.” [Bamidbar 1:45-46]. If this were not enough, at the conclusion of the description of the flag encampments, the Torah once again gives us the total of all the camps: “These are the counts of the Children of Israel according to their fathers’ house; all the counts of the camps according to their armies, 603,550.” [Bamidbar 2:32] If any parsha in the Torah contains redundancies, this is it. The language of Derech Eretz Zuta is, “since they loved each other and despised divisiveness and camped as one individual, Hashem said, ‘Now is the appropriate time to give the Torah to My children.’” This concept of unity is an idea we have spoken of many times. That is what Rav Yosef meant, “If this day (of Shavuos) had not have caused (me to learn Torah), how many Yosef’s are there in the marketplace (from whom I would have been indistinguishable)?” (Pesachim 68b) One of the most personally moving tefillos (prayers) of Yom Kippur is the prayer that reads “…We no longer have the Kohen, we no longer have the duchen, Jerusalem is in shambles – the only thing that remains for us is this Torah…” The Torah is all that is left to unite us. In September 1997, a few days before the arrival of Rosh Hashanah 5758, over 45,000 Jews gathered in two locations in New York City, with a total of over 70,000 Jews – men, women, and children – gathered and participating there and at satellite locations throughout the
