Ẓiẓit, Koraḥ, and Wave-Particle Duality

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to the children of Israel and you shall say to them that they shall make for themselves fringes [ẓiẓit] on the corners of their garments, throughout their generations, and they shall affix a thread of sky blue [wool] on the fringe of each corner. (Num. 15:37,38) They [Koraḥ and his men] assembled against Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “You take too much upon yourselves, for the entire congregation are all holy, and the Lord is in their midst. So why do you raise yourselves above the Lord's assembly” (Num. 16:3) The Torah portion Shelach deals primarily with the fiasco of the spies sent by Moses to scout out the land of Canaan. The portion ends, however, seemingly out of turn, with the commandment to [...]

Secrets of the Talking Ass

And G‑d opened the mouth of the ass, and she said to Bilam: "What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?" And Bilam said to the ass: "Because you have mocked me; I would there were a sword in my hand, for now I would kill you." And the ass said to Bilam: "Am not I your ass, upon which you have ridden all your life to this day? Was I ever wont to do so to you?" And he said, "No." Num. 22:28-30 Despite the simple dialogue between Balaam (Bilam) and his ass in the Torah portion of Balak, this ass was no ordinary ass. This ass saw an angel where a prophet as great as her owner, Balaam, did not. It stands to reason that [...]

Manna – Superposition of All Tastes

And the house of Israel called the name thereof manna; and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey (Exodus 16:31). The taste of it was as the taste of a cake baked with oil (Numbers 11:8).   The biblical account of manna presents us with an intriguing paradox that resonates surprisingly with modern quantum physics. In Exodus, Scripture describes this mysterious desert sustenance as tasting “like wafers made with honey,” while elsewhere characterizing it as having the flavor of “cake baked with oil.” This apparent contradiction opens the door to a fascinating exploration of how biblical text might parallel contemporary scientific understanding.  The Many-Flavored Mystery The Talmud (Yoma 75b) elaborates on manna’s remarkable nature, describing it as a substance whose taste adapted to [...]
