Thank you for joining us as we continue to learn virtually together taking advantage of the incredible technology the gift of technology that we have so glad that we are together and hope that you can hear clearly this morning so many of the privilege of studying parshas acharei mos to give me a try to incorporate some thoughts of the theme of Yom Hazikaron today is a day that we join Jews around the world in thinking about commemorating memorializing those who gave their lives for founding of the state of Israel and for the able to follow along preferably even a Mikraos Gedolos as we'll see some of the Meforshim inside together today if not it's no problem you can listen carefully and we'll try to explain so our parsha begins by the Moshe acharei mos because of some of the musar the parsha begins by referencing what had happened recently the tragic premature death of Nadav and Avihu Aaron had suffered a horrific loss on which in the happiest day of his life the inauguration of the Mishkan opening day of his serving as Mishkan opening day of his serving as the Kohen Gadol instead he tragically lost his two sons inexplicably so much so the text is absent and our commentaries debate exactly what they did wrong and here we introduce our new parsha and the story of Aaron's role in leading the Yom Kippur service with this reference to acharei mos shnei benei Aaron after the death of the two sons of Aaron we're not going to get into but I leave it to you or I challenge you to think about why does our parsha not mention their name why are their names
