The Parsha Podcast - With Rabbi Yaakov Wolbe

Nasso – The Elusive Golden Middle


Listen Later

Our nation has been blessed with many great leaders. What is our definition of great leadership? In this interesting Parsha podcast, we go back to the story of the princes of the tribes. These 12 men were the heads of the 12 tribes. When Moshe and Aaron conducted the census in the beginning of last week’s Parsha, these 12 men accompanied them. In our Parsha, these princes make two donations towards the Tabernacle: they donate 12 oxen and 6 wagons for the transportation of the Tabernacle, and they each offer an elaborate tribute for the Tabernacles inauguration over the course of 12 successive days. When we look at their surprising backstory, their counterintuitive failure of leadership in an earlier stage of the Tabernacle, and their unusual epilogue we discover a fascinating saga that informs, inspires, and serves as a cautionary tale.
