IV-10 Massei Cities of Refuge
Massei gives a summary of the marches that occured during the Exodus from Egypt, listing the various places where the Israelites strayed. Forty-two places are named relating to forty-two levels of spirituality. After the mention of Aaron's death on Mt Hor, the account of travels becomes more detailed in preparation for entry into the Promised Land. The passage details the boundaries of the land, setting the traditional borders. Moses portions the lands to eleven tribes and establishes the laws of inheritance for the Daughters of Zelophehad (see Nr 27:1-11). Because the Levites do not inherit land as a tribe, they aer given six cities of refuge with pasture land assigned to them. The cities are designated as places of asylum for anyone who committed accidental manslaughter. Scripture distinguishes between accidental death, murder and self-defense.

V-5 Shoftim Be Deliberate
Shoftim echoes the need for social legislation and courts of justice. The Rabbi Judah haNasi warned that we should live in awe of three things: a seeing eye above, a listening ear and all our deeds written in the Book of Life. (Pirkei Avos 2:1). Talking about Divine Justice and the World-to-Come does not relieve us of the burden of pursuing justice and righteousness within this world. Shoftim reiterates the designation of the Cities of refuge for accidental manslaughter and delineates the need for courts of justice. A court does not guarantee justice unless the judges are of unimpeachable integrity and the witnesses honest. Credibility is not a key quality a witness since credibility is the base of many scams and hoaxes in life. Lies are credible. Many times the truth is unpalatable and incredible, but we must confront it. Guidelines are established for due process of law with warning regarding corruption that occurs through bribery and blind eyes. Shoftim tries to find the balance between angry vengence of the pursuer and compassion for the pursued, reflecting the primary qualities of God--Adonai Eloheinu—Mercy and Compassion always predominating justice.

An Italian Leader: Berlusconi the Crusader
While US and European leaders are trying to put together a large coalition against the fundamentalist supporters of terrorism, the Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi has caused a diplomatic incident with his declaration on the supremacy of the western civilization. Berlusconi, a media tycoon running Italy since May, is not at his first blunder. Italian voters know his loquacity, but still this didn’t keep them from sending him to government with the elections held in May. Since, Italy’s prime minister, who is also on trial for bribery, has not resolved any of his numerous conflicts of interests, among them his fear of international investigations, which are now necessary to seize the terrorists’ financial resources. Yet, as a traditional friend of Arab nations, Italy could still play an important role in the current diplomatic game due to the presence of the former Afghan king Zahir Shah in Rome.
