Rashi on Leviticus 16:1

Home

Torah

1 โ€Ž[1] 'ื•ื™ื“ื‘ืจ ื”' ืืœ ืžืฉื” ืื—ืจื™ ืžื•ืช ืฉื ื™ ื‘ื ื™ ืื”ืจืŸ ื•ื’ื•โ€Žโ€Ž AND THE LORD SPOKE UNTO MOSES AFTER THE DEATH OF THE TWO SONS OF AARON etc. โ€”What is this statement intended to tell us? (i. e. why is it at all stated when God spoke this to Moses?) Rabbi Elazar ben Azariah illustrated this by a parable: It may be compared to the case of a sick person whom the physician visited. He (the physician) said to him: โ€œDo not eat cold things nor sleep in a damp place!" Another physician came and said to him: โ€œDo not eat cold things, nor sleep in a damp place so that thou mayest not die as Mr. So-and-so died!" Certainly this (the latter) put him on his guard more than the former; that is why Scripture states โ€œafter the death of the two sons of Aaron" (Sifra, Acharei Mot, Section 1 3).
