Weekly Torah Portion: Korach

In praise of women: They avoided the sin of the golden calf; they did not participate in the badmouthing of the land of Israel. And in parashat Korach, we learn how the wife of On ben Pelet prevented her husband from taking part in the rebellion of Korach and helped him to repent of his original intentions. Stand by your man? Stand by your woman!

Korach (Numbers 16:1-18:32)
Parashat Korach is read on Shabbat:
Sivan 28, 5769/June 20, 2009

I love how the Torah elevates the role of women/ the wife in spiritual existence. Especially with the accomplished /virtuous woman in proverbs 31:10 - 31 it shows how important women are. Also, going through the book of II Kings we see that when a king is righteous there is usually a mother who must have been grounded in the word of G-D.

Pretty good video, but I don't think the Text of the Torah implies that women did not partake in the Golden Calf or the sins of Korach. The golden calf was made of the gold of both men and women and daughters ex32:2. Also it spoken of am Yisra'el which would imply all the people. and as for Korach, by leaving information out, does not give license to fill in the blanks. It is a theory at best in my opinion. Women I think do represent the spirit or heart of men.
