Behaalotecha: The Journey Begins
Numbers 8:1–12:16
The third section of the Book of Numbers begins as G‑d tells Moses to instruct Aaron how to kindle (Beha’alotecha, in Hebrew) the lamps of the Tabernacle’s Candelabrum. It continues with the final preparations for the Jewish people’s departure from Mount Sinai and the events that occurred at their first stops in the desert.

"Love is strong as death" (Song of Songs 8:6) -- this is the love with which Jacob loved Joseph... "Envy is harsh as the grave" (ibid.) -- this is the envy of the brothers to Joseph. What can love achieve in face of envy?
