민수기 25:12의 차시두트

We find in the Talmud “From where do we know that a priest with a physical defect is invalid.? As it says ‘Behold I give him my covenant of peace (/SHaLOM/)’, when is he whole/complete (/SHaLeM/) therefore and not lacking. This is problematic however for SHaloM is written, with a VaV (and therefore does not have the meaning of complete/whole). But the Vav is severed (and therefore it may be read as having the meaning complete/whole). Elsewhere the Talmud explains the verse from Psalms “Pinchas stood in reckoning (VaYiPaLeL). VaYiTPaLeL (prayer) is not written, rather VaYiPaLeL (entreaty), to teach that he made a ׳reckoning׳ )(PeLiLaH) with his Creator.

The author quotes another Midrash (that I have been ‎unable to find) according to which the reason that G’d did not ‎address Pinchas directly when giving him his reward but the ‎Torah reports it in the impersonal third person, (25,12) is that his ‎body at the time of the deed had been invisible. This is an ‎additional allusion to the fact that Pinchas’ body, which had ‎helped in this deed, deserved to be rewarded by immortality.‎

[The aspect of Yesod] is also called “Peace-Shalom-שלום”¹⁹That is, it is the aspect of the bond between two things, the upper and lower, the Giver and recipient. (See Ma’amarei Admor HaEmtza’ee, Kuntreisim, p. 226.) and “Covenant-Breet-ברית,” as [the verse states] regarding Pinchas,²⁰Numbers 25:12; Also see Yalkut Reuveni, Parashat Korach; Ma’amarei Admor HaEmtza’ee, Parashat Mikeitz, pg. 293; Hemshech 5672, pg. 1. “Behold, I give to him my covenant of peace (Breetee Shalom-בריתי שלום).”
