Episode Synopsis

- The elements of פרשת זכור ותצוה are related: first to the general concept of בגדים and בגדי כהונה of אחשורוש,and more deeply to the levels of זכירה on many levels vis a vis עמלק, and more deeply than this is the פרשה of משה רבינו’s “loss” – not just that his name is not mentioned (which relates to המן’s happiness about י"ג אדר) but also that this is a פרשה where he “loses everything.”
We find that the interrelationship of his loss of the כהונה and the rebuilding of כהונה is fundamentally the story of פורים: the misuse of בושה and the inability to carry out שליחות is the same problem of שאול which causes פורים – and the ability to throw everything to the wind and do anything that is necessary to do is שייך to the nature of זכירה which is complete non-קנאה and the דרגה of אהרון!
משה רבינו is מתקן the problem in בושה through עניוות: the pure “intellectual” awareness of the need to completely counter his בושה – but without אהרון this didn’t allow him to function, but only to become more separate; in terms of his death, in terms of his לימוד, in terms of his דין, in terms of taking his אהל out and הקב"ה needing to restore him – his חיבור with שבת אחים גם יחד is the meaning of ואתה תצוה where it is clear that the ואת"ה is itself only accessible through חיבור to אהרון which becomes שבת אחים גם יחדו which is what אסתר becomes capable of doing: utilizing קנאה to destroy others and having no concern for herself in her complete commitment to doing what needs to be done!
