BEHA’ALOTCHA

Who will be our leaders?  Who can foretell the future?  These were issues for Moses. He asked Hashem to help selecting new wise elders from each tribe. Two of them separated themselves, not feeling qualified, but the spirit of insight touched them. Eldad from the tribe of Benjamin and Maidad from Ephraim and both prophesied Moses’ death and Joshua succeeded him and the defeat in the end of time of the monsters Gog and Magog by the Moshiach and that the dead souls will be revived.
