Korah (\u05e7\u05b9\u05e8\u05b7\u05d7 \u2013 Korah<\/strong>)<\/strong>
Numbers 16:1 \u2013 18:32 & I Samuel 11:14 \u2013 12:22<\/strong><\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Korah, Dathan, and Abiram are swallowed up for challenging the legitimacy of Moses and Aaron, while the 250 other rebels, who offered unauthorized incense, are consumed by divine fire. To prevent further dissent, Moses asks each tribal leader to place his staff in the sanctuary; only Aaron\u2019s staff buds, blossoms, and produces almonds \u2014 an unmistakable sign of divine choice. In the haftarah, the prophet Samuel, who is also challenged, reminds the people that God is Israel\u2019s only true leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses went into the Tent of the Testimony; and behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi had budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the time of the Second Temple, Magdala \u2014 or in Aramaic Migdal Nunaya<\/em>, \u00ab\u00a0Tower of the Fish\u00a0\u00bb \u2014 was a prosperous Jewish city on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee. It had up to 40,000 inhabitants, with a market, ritual baths, a fish-salting industry, and several synagogues. One of these yielded the famous Magdala Stone, adorned with symbols of the Jerusalem Temple: a menorah, jars, columns\u2026 and, on its upper face, a floral arrangement that some archaeologists interpret as stylized almond blossoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent excavations, a bronze incense shovel was found in a room adjoining the prayer hall. This utensil, mentioned in the Torah (Exodus 27:3), was used to scoop embers for the censers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
