A talking donkey!
Is this Balak in Torah
Or Shrek on the screen?Both Balak and Shrek
.
Have donkeys as companions
And both are “ogres”
The role of the priests
Is made clear in this portion
They lead, not Korach
Make yourself fringes
On corners of your garments
With a cord of blue
Look and remember
All the commandments from G-d
And follow the laws
Torah’s shortest prayer
Can be found in this Parsha
“O G-d, please heal her!”
In civil cases
The punitive damages
Are twenty percent
(Numbers 5 : 6-7)
Levites aren’t counted
‘Cause G-d is counting on them
For Divine service
The Liberty Bell
Has words from this week’s portion
Inscribed upon it
“Proclaim liberty”
A Jubilee commandment
And our nation’s creed
Not just offerings
Also the priests who make them
Must be unblemished
Also a lesson
For Jewish leaders today
Set good examples
Can we be holy?
This week G-d reveals the “code”
To seek holiness
