Parshat Korach: Is It About the Problem or About You?

📖 Parshat Korach This Week: If we see something wrong, we should fix it. That's our responsibility. But here's the hard question: Does the solution always point back to you? Does fixing the problem somehow benefit your ego, advance your career, or give you what you want? If yes, maybe it's not about the problem at all. Korach challenged Moshe's leadership. He claimed the system was wrong, that everyone should be equal. But really? He wanted to be in charge. We do this all the time. 'So-and-so isn't qualified for that job' really means 'I want that position.'' The leadership needs to change' really means 'I want that power.' Before you criticize someone else's leadership, ask yourself: Is there a bias here? Is something in it for me? Is this really about fixing the situation, or is it about my ego? That question changes everything. Shabbat Shalom. 🪞
