Parasha Chukat
Chukat, HuQath , Hukath, or Chukkas (חֻקַּת —Hebrew for “decree”).
Parasha Chukat, in Numbers, recounts the laws of the red heifer, a purification ritual. Moshe and Aharon face consequences for striking the rock to bring forth water, resulting in their exclusion from entering the Promised Land. Miriam dies, and the people face challenges in the wilderness, including encounters with hostile nations. Elohim instructs Moshe to speak to a rock for water, but frustration leads to striking it. The Parasha explores themes of divine discipline, the mystery of ritual purity, and the tension between leadership and human frailty. Chukat underscores the complexities of the Israelites' journey, revealing profound lessons amid trials.
