Family Bonding is the Jewish Way

It was a few days before Pesach and I was waiting in line at the neighborhood bagel store. The line was out the door and into the street. Perhaps, I should have brought a lounge chair. There is a line for everything here in New York, the bank, food shopping, clothing, take-out food, especially closer to a major holiday. Although, in my opinion, it happens to be the best bagel in New York, I decided to listen to my daughters’ advice and instead ordered myself a whole-grain tuna wrap. I am unsure if it has fewer carbs than the bagel, but it feels healthier than the hot, delicious bagels I will buy for my family.

Parsha Highlights

* Why is the 4th book of the Torah called Bamidbar - Desert? One can also ask, why is it also called the Book of Numbers?

* Did G-d test our weakness before rewarding us with the Torah?

* Interestingly, the tribe of Levi were not oppressed like the other tribes and yet they were few in numbers. How is that?

* Why were the nations so amazed by the flags? What is so unique about a bunch of people traveling under a bunch of flags?
