- The two antagonists have two רמזים in this פרשה: the absence of משה which is המן’s happiness in י"ג אדר, and the coming to fore of אהרון which is כבוד ותפארת that is so important to אחשורוש . We trace these differences in being the intellectual aspects of פורים, המן statistics, non-mechanical world on the one hand – and something very shocking on the other: the function of לב in פורים, זכרון not as intellectual process but something that people often overlook: pure emotional context which people tend to think is in their hands to do as they please!
The ability to distinguish between the loss of נצח that appears in the הפטרה which is the use of בגד as posturing and its metaphor, the tearing of בגד is loss of נצח – what happens to אהרון is the ability to carry בגד as pure נצח in which you become what it is the בגד allows as part of נצחיות – in the exact same way that אסתר was ותלבש מלכות! And in doing so see the elements of life as a stage that allows you to carry out your moment of Living Life, and it is that which allows for her spontaneity: to be able to carry off being whatever you are in the way that אהרון הכהן sees you with your unique potential and unique humanity and Self in whatever role given to you to play. You play that role and can carry off נצח in the way that אסתר carried off מלכות, the way that אהרון carries off the כהונה in ways that any other person who had חשש of קנאה and worries about posturing was unable to do, this is why שאול loses it, why משה loses it for the fear he has in אהרון – and this is why דוד is able to contrast himself and his lack of care for personal exposure and the constant awareness of the separateness of Him to the clothes he was wearing, which is where בית שאול initially fails and what gives דוד המלך the מלכות לנצח!
