Dvar Tora
Was the ‘Slav’ (Num.11:31) a Species of Fish?

The “Slav” in parashat beha’alotcha which God brought flying in from the sea, and was gathered by the People of Israel, was not quail as generally accepted – but actually a type of fish!
Rav Michael Dushinsky heard this interpretation from his uncle, Rabbi Yerachmiel Ya’akov Duschinsky ZT”L (1916-1986), presiding Rabbi of South Africa’s rabbinical
court, who received his rabbinical ordination from Rav Akiva Sofer of the
“Yeshiva haRamah” of Pressburg. This interpretation emanates from Ma’or
Ha’aphelah (Nur al Çalaam [Enlightening the Darkness]), a Yemenite Midrashic
work, written in 1329 by Nethanel ben Isaiah. Rav Dushinsky bolsters this
interpretation with a number of weighty contentions, based on the Torah, the
Talmud, linguistic and historical considerations, etc. He demonstrates that this
interpretation solves many problems and we would be hard put to refute it.

Roots
Every Jew is like a tree of the field. He is rooted in the solid ground of his ancestors’ legacy, roots of soul and tradition, and turns his head upwards yearning higher and yet higher heavenward. Ancestors’ legacy and love of G-od are those that guarantee the life of man – the tree – within the people of Israel
