Parashat Pinchas, found in the Book of Numbers (Bamidbar), is a significant Torah portion that spans Numbers 25:10-30:1. The name “Pinchas” refers to the central character in this portion, who emerges as a key figure in the narrative. Parashat Pinchas encompasses a range of significant events and laws that shape the Israelites’ journey towards the Promised Land.
The portion begins with the aftermath of a troubling episode involving the Israelites’ interaction with the Midianite women. Their involvement in idolatrous practices leads to God’s anger and the outbreak of a devastating plague among the Israelites. In the midst of this turmoil, Pinchas, a grandson of Aaron, exhibits unwavering zeal for God’s honor and takes decisive action. He courageously executes an Israelite man and a Midianite woman who are engaged in a public act of immorality. Pinchas’ boldness and commitment to upholding God’s commandments halt the plague and restore order to the community. In recognition of his righteous zeal, God establishes a covenant of peace with Pinchas, affirming his eternal priesthood and rewarding him for his devotion.
Moving forward, Parashat Pinchas delves into the second census of the Israelites. This enumeration serves to document the new generation that is preparing to enter the Promised Land. The meticulous counting of the tribes reflects God’s continued guidance and investment in the Israelites’ journey. In addition to the census, the portion highlights the importance of justice and fairness in matters of inheritance. The daughters of Zelophehad, five brave and assertive women, come forward to petition for their right to inherit their father’s portion in the land. Their request prompts Moses to seek guidance from God, and a groundbreaking ruling is established, ensuring that daughters have an equal right to inherit property when there are no male heirs. This landmark decision sets a precedent for future generations, emphasizing the importance of gender equality and fair distribution of resources within the community.
Parashat Pinchas also marks a transitional period in the Israelites’ leadership. God instructs Moses to ascend Mount Abarim to view the Promised Land but informs him that he will not personally enter it. Instead, God designates Joshua, a trusted and capable leader, as Moses’ successor. This passing of the mantle ensures a seamless transition of authority and affirms the continued guidance and protection of the Israelites as they prepare to enter the land flowing with milk and honey.
As the portion draws to a close, it provides a detailed account of the offerings and sacrifices to be observed during various festivals and daily worship. These rituals serve as a reminder of the importance of maintaining the sacred connection with God and upholding the divine commandments. The portion concludes by reiterating the significance of these practices, emphasizing their role in fostering a deep spiritual bond between the Israelites and their Creator.
Parashat Pinchas teaches us profound lessons about the power of zeal for God, the values of justice and fairness, and the importance of strong and orderly leadership. It demonstrates that acts of righteousness can have a profound impact, even in the face of challenges and adversity. Through the stories and laws contained within this portion, we are reminded of the rewards that come with dedication and commitment to upholding our spiritual values, maintaining our connection to God, and embracing our shared heritage as a people.

וַיֹּ֥אמֶר מֹשֶׁ֖ה אֶל־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל כְּכֹ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֥ה יְהֹוָ֖ה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃
Pinchas
“Phinehas, son of Eleazar son of Aaron the priest, has turned back My wrath from the Israelites by displaying among them his passion for Me, so that I did not wipe out the Israelite people in My passion.
Say, therefore, ‘I grant him My pact of friendship.
It shall be for him and his descendants after him a pact of priesthood for all time, because he took impassioned action for his God, thus making expiation for the Israelites.’”
The name of the Israelite man who was killed, the one who was killed with the Midianite woman, was Zimri son of Salu, chieftain of a Simeonite ancestral house.
The name of the Midianite woman who was killed was Cozbi daughter of Zur; he was the tribal head of an ancestral house in Midian.
יהוה spoke to Moses, saying,
“Assail the Midianites and defeat them—
for they assailed you by the trickery they practiced against you—because of the affair of Peor and because of the affair of their kinswoman Cozbi, daughter of the Midianite chieftain, who was killed at the time of the plague on account of Peor.”
26
When the plague was over, יהוה said to Moses and to Eleazar son of Aaron the priest,
“Take a census of the whole Israelite company [of fighters] from the age of twenty years up, by their ancestral houses, all Israelite males able to bear arms.”
So Moses and Eleazar the priest, on the steppes of Moab, at the Jordan near Jericho, gave instructions about them, namely,
those from twenty years up, as יהוה had commanded Moses. The [eligible male] descendants of the Israelites who came out of the land of Egypt were:
Second
Reuben, Israel’s first-born. Descendants of Reuben: [Of] Enoch, the clan of the Enochites; of Pallu, the clan of the Palluites;
of Hezron, the clan of the Hezronites; of Carmi, the clan of the Carmites.
Those are the clans of the Reubenites. The men enrolled came to 43,730.
Born to Pallu: Eliab.
The sons of Eliab were Nemuel, and Dathan and Abiram. These are the same Dathan and Abiram, chosen in the assembly, who agitated against Moses and Aaron as part of Korah’s band when they agitated against יהוה.
Whereupon the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with Korah—when that band died, when the fire consumed the two hundred and fifty men—and they became an example.
The sons of Korah, however, did not die.
Descendants of Simeon by their clans: Of Nemuel, the clan of the Nemuelites; of Jamin, the clan of the Jaminites; of Jachin, the clan of the Jachinites;
of Zerah, the clan of the Zerahites; of Saul, the clan of the Saulites.
Those are the clans of the Simeonites; [men enrolled: ] 22,200.
Descendants of Gad by their clans: Of Zephon, the clan of the Zephonites; of Haggi, the clan of the Haggites; of Shuni, the clan of the Shunites;
of Ozni, the clan of the Oznites; of Eri, the clan of the Erites;
of Arod, the clan of the Arodites; of Areli, the clan of the Arelites.
Those are the clans of Gad’s descendants; men enrolled: 40,500.
Born to Judah: Er and Onan. Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan.
Descendants of Judah by their clans: Of Shelah, the clan of the Shelanites; of Perez, the clan of the Perezites; of Zerah, the clan of the Zerahites.
Descendants of Perez: of Hezron, the clan of the Hezronites; of Hamul, the clan of the Hamulites.
Those are the clans of Judah; men enrolled: 76,500.
Descendants of Issachar by their clans: [Of] Tola, the clan of the Tolaites; of Puvah, the clan of the Punites;
of Jashub, the clan of the Jashubites; of Shimron, the clan of the Shimronites.
Those are the clans of Issachar; men enrolled: 64,300.
Descendants of Zebulun by their clans: Of Sered, the clan of the Seredites; of Elon, the clan of the Elonites; of Jahleel, the clan of the Jahleelites.
Those are the clans of the Zebulunites; men enrolled: 60,500.
The sons of Joseph were Manasseh and Ephraim—by their clans.
Descendants of Manasseh: Of Machir, the clan of the Machirites.—Machir begot Gilead.—Of Gilead, the clan of the Gileadites.
These were the descendants of Gilead: [Of] Iezer, the clan of the Iezerites; of Helek, the clan of the Helekites;
[of] Asriel, the clan of the Asrielites; [of] Shechem, the clan of the Shechemites;
[of] Shemida, the clan of the Shemidaites; [of] Hepher, the clan of the Hepherites.—
Now Zelophehad son of Hepher had no sons, only daughters. The names of Zelophehad’s daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.—
Those are the clans of Manasseh; men enrolled: 52,700.
These are the descendants of Ephraim by their clans: Of Shuthelah, the clan of the Shuthelahites; of Becher, the clan of the Becherites; of Tahan, the clan of the Tahanites.

יהוה spoke to Moses, saying,
“Among these shall the land be apportioned as shares, according to the listed names:
with larger groups increase the share, with smaller groups reduce the share. Each is to be assigned its share according to its enrollment.
The land, moreover, is to be apportioned by lot; and the allotment shall be made according to the listings of their ancestral tribes.
Each portion shall be assigned by lot, whether for larger or smaller groups.”
This is the enrollment of the Levites by their clans: Of Gershon, the clan of the Gershonites; of Kohath, the clan of the Kohathites; of Merari, the clan of the Merarites.
These are the clans of Levi: The clan of the Libnites, the clan of the Hebronites, the clan of the Mahlites, the clan of the Mushites, the clan of the Korahites.—Kohath begot Amram.
The name of Amram’s wife was Jochebed daughter of Levi, who was born to Levi in Egypt; she bore to Amram Aaron and Moses and their sister Miriam.
To Aaron were born Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Nadab and Abihu died when they offered alien fire before יהוה.—
Their enrollment of 23,000 comprised all males from a month up. They were not part of the regular enrollment of the Israelites, since no share was assigned to them among the Israelites.
These are the males enrolled by Moses and Eleazar the priest who registered the Israelites on the steppes of Moab, at the Jordan near Jericho.
Among these there was not one of those enrolled by Moses and Aaron the priest when they recorded the Israelites in the wilderness of Sinai.
For יהוה had said of them, “They shall die in the wilderness.” Not one of them survived, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
27
The daughters of Zelophehad, of Manassite family—son of Hepher son of Gilead son of Machir son of Manasseh son of Joseph—came forward. The names of the daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the chieftains, and the whole assembly, at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and they said,
“Our father died in the wilderness. He was not one of the faction, Korah’s faction, which banded together against יהוה, but died for his own sin; and he has left no sons.
Let not our father’s name be lost to his clan just because he had no son! Give us a holding among our father’s kinsmen!”
Moses brought their case before יהוה.
Fourth
And יהוה said to Moses,
“The plea of Zelophehad’s daughters is just: you should give them a hereditary holding among their father’s kinsmen; transfer their father’s share to them.
“Further, speak to the Israelite people as follows: ‘If a householder dies without leaving a son, you shall transfer his property to his daughter.
If he has no daughter, you shall assign his property to his brothers.
If he has no brothers, you shall assign his property to his father’s brothers.
If his father had no brothers, you shall assign his property to his nearest relative in his own clan, who shall inherit it.’ This shall be the law of procedure for the Israelites, in accordance with יהוה’s command to Moses.”
יהוה said to Moses, “Ascend these heights of Abarim and view the land that I have given to the Israelite people.
When you have seen it, you too shall be gathered to your kin, just as your brother Aaron was.
For, in the wilderness of Zin, when the community was contentious, you disobeyed My command to uphold My sanctity in their sight by means of the water.” Those are the Waters of Meribath-kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin.
Moses spoke to יהוה, saying,
“Let יהוה, Source of the breath of all flesh, appoint someone over the community
who shall go out before them and come in before them, and who shall take them out and bring them in, so that יהוה’s community may not be like sheep that have no shepherd.”
And יהוה answered Moses, “Single out Joshua son of Nun, an inspired man, and lay your hand upon him.
Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and before the whole community, and commission him in their sight.
Invest him with some of your authority, so that the whole Israelite community may obey.
But he shall present himself to Eleazar the priest, who shall on his behalf seek the decision of the Urim before יהוה. By such instruction they shall go out and by such instruction they shall come in, he and all the Israelite [militia], and the whole community.”
Moses did as יהוה commanded him. He took Joshua and had him stand before Eleazar the priest and before the whole community.
He laid his hands upon him and commissioned him—as יהוה had spoken through Moses.
28
Fifth
יהוה spoke to Moses, saying:
Command the Israelite people and say to them: Be punctilious in presenting to Me at stated times the offerings of food due Me, as offerings by fire of pleasing odor to Me.
Say to them: These are the offerings by fire that you are to present to יהוה: As a regular burnt offering every day, two yearling lambs without blemish.
You shall offer one lamb in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight.
And as a meal offering, there shall be a tenth of an ephah of choice flour with a quarter of a hin of beaten oil mixed in—
the regular burnt offering instituted at Mount Sinai —an offering by fire of pleasing odor to יהוה.
The libation with it shall be a quarter of a hin for each lamb, to be poured in the sacred precinct as an offering of fermented drink to יהוה.
The other lamb you shall offer at twilight, preparing the same meal offering and libation as in the morning—an offering by fire of pleasing odor to יהוה.
On the sabbath day: two yearling lambs without blemish, together with two-tenths of a measure of choice flour with oil mixed in as a meal offering, and with the proper libation—
a burnt offering for every sabbath, in addition to the regular burnt offering and its libation.
On your new moons you shall present a burnt offering to יהוה: two bulls of the herd, one ram, and seven yearling lambs, without blemish.
As meal offering for each bull: three-tenths of a measure of choice flour with oil mixed in. As meal offering for each ram: two-tenths of a measure of choice flour with oil mixed in.
As meal offering for each lamb: a tenth of a measure of fine flour with oil mixed in. Such shall be the burnt offering of pleasing odor, an offering by fire to יהוה.
Their libations shall be: half a hin of wine for a bull, a third of a hin for a ram, and a quarter of a hin for a lamb. That shall be the monthly burnt offering for each new moon of the year.
And there shall be one goat as a sin offering to יהוה, to be offered in addition to the regular burnt offering and its libation.
Sixth
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, there shall be a passover sacrifice to יהוה,
and on the fifteenth day of that month a festival. Unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days.
The first day shall be a sacred occasion: you shall not work at your occupations.
You shall present an offering by fire, a burnt offering, to יהוה: two bulls of the herd, one ram, and seven yearling lambs—see that they are without blemish.
The meal offering with them shall be of choice flour with oil mixed in: prepare three-tenths of a measure for a bull, two-tenths for a ram;
and for each of the seven lambs prepare one-tenth of a measure.
And there shall be one goat for a sin offering, to make expiation in your behalf.
You shall present these in addition to the morning portion of the regular burnt offering.
You shall offer the like daily for seven days as food, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to יהוה; they shall be offered, with their libations, in addition to the regular burnt offering.
And the seventh day shall be a sacred occasion for you: you shall not work at your occupations.
On the day of the first fruits, your Feast of Weeks, when you bring an offering of new grain to יהוה, you shall observe a sacred occasion: you shall not work at your occupations.
You shall present a burnt offering of pleasing odor to יהוה: two bulls of the herd, one ram, seven yearling lambs.
The meal offering with them shall be of choice flour with oil mixed in, three-tenths of a measure for a bull, two-tenths for a ram,
and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs.
And there shall be one goat for expiation in your behalf.
You shall present them—see that they are without blemish—with their libations, in addition to the regular burnt offering and its meal offering.
29
In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe a sacred occasion: you shall not work at your occupations. You shall observe it as a day when the horn is sounded.
You shall present a burnt offering of pleasing odor to יהוה: one bull of the herd, one ram, and seven yearling lambs, without blemish.
The meal offering with them—choice flour with oil mixed in—shall be: three-tenths of a measure for a bull, two-tenths for a ram,
and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs.
And there shall be one goat for a sin offering, to make expiation in your behalf—
in addition to the burnt offering of the new moon with its meal offering and the regular burnt offering with its meal offering, each with its libation as prescribed, offerings by fire of pleasing odor to יהוה.
On the tenth day of the same seventh month you shall observe a sacred occasion when you shall practice self-denial. You shall do no work.
You shall present to יהוה a burnt offering of pleasing odor: one bull of the herd, one ram, seven yearling lambs; see that they are without blemish.
The meal offering with them—of choice flour with oil mixed in—shall be: three-tenths of a measure for a bull, two-tenths for the one ram,
one-tenth for each of the seven lambs.
And there shall be one goat for a sin offering, in addition to the sin offering of expiation and the regular burnt offering with its meal offering, each with its libation.
Seventh
On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, you shall observe a sacred occasion: you shall not work at your occupations.—Seven days you shall observe a festival of יהוה.—
You shall present a burnt offering, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to יהוה: Thirteen bulls of the herd, two rams, fourteen yearling lambs; they shall be without blemish.
The meal offerings with them—of choice flour with oil mixed in—shall be: three-tenths of a measure for each of the thirteen bulls, two-tenths for each of the two rams,

So Moses spoke to the Israelites just as יהוה had commanded Moses.

Jeremiah
1:1-2:3
The word of GOD came to him in the days of King Josiah son of Amon of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign,
and throughout the days of King Jehoiakim son of Josiah of Judah, and until the end of the eleventh year of King Zedekiah son of Josiah of Judah, when Jerusalem went into exile in the fifth month.
The word of GOD came to me:
Before I created you in the womb, I selected you;
Before you were born, I consecrated you;
I appointed you a prophet concerning the nations.
I replied:
Ah, my Sovereign GOD !
I don’t know how to speak,
For I am still a boy.
And GOD said to me:
Do not say, “I am still a boy,”
But go wherever I send you
And speak whatever I command you.
Have no fear of them,
For I am with you to deliver you
—declares GOD.
GOD reached out and touched my mouth, and GOD said to me: Herewith I put My words into your mouth.
See, I appoint you this day
Over nations and kingdoms:
To uproot and to pull down,
To destroy and to overthrow,
To build and to plant.
The word of GOD came to me: What do you see, Jeremiah? I replied: I see a branch of an almond tree.
GOD said to me:
You have seen right,
For I am watchful to bring My word to pass.
And the word of GOD came to me a second time: What do you see? I replied:
I see a steaming pot,
Tipped away from the north.
And GOD said to me:
From the north shall disaster break loose
Upon all the inhabitants of the land!
For I am summoning all the peoples
Of the kingdoms of the north
—declares GOD.
They shall come, and shall each set up a throne
Before the gates of Jerusalem,
Against its walls round about,
And against all the towns of Judah.
And I will argue My case against them
For all their wickedness:
They have forsaken Me
And sacrificed to other gods
And worshiped the works of their hands.
So you, gird up your loins,
Arise and speak to them
All that I command you.
Do not break down before them,
Lest I break you before them.
I make you this day
A fortified city,
And an iron pillar,
And bronze walls
Against the whole land—
Against Judah’s kings and officers,
And against its priests and citizens.
They will attack you,
But they shall not overcome you;
For I am with you—declares GOD —to save you.
2
The word of GOD came to me, saying,
Go proclaim to Jerusalem: Thus said GOD:
I accounted to your favor
The devotion of your youth,
Your love as a bride—
How you followed Me in the wilderness,
In a land not sown.
Israel was holy to GOD,
The first fruits of God’s harvest.
All who ate of it were held guilty;
Disaster befell them
—declares GOD.
