1st & 2nd Aliyot: The Parsha Mizbeachs consecration. The first begins on Nissan 1, 2449. The recorded difference in Halachik seven-day inauguration of Aharon rulings is recorded between and his sons was completed and Moshe and Aharon as it pertained the ceremonies for the Mizbeachs to the eating of the Rosh Chodesh consecration had begun.

Kosher and non-Kosher animals, Aharon blessed the nation with fish, and fowl are recorded.

Moshe instructs Aharon the symbolic emphasis that the and his two remaining sons, Torah places on serving G-d Elazar and Isamar, that they are with optimism and vigor. So forbidden to overtly mourn the long as there is life there is deaths of Nadav and Avihu in the the opportunity to grow in our standard manner. It is from here relationship with G-d. that we are taught the standard The question of Why are we practices of tearing Kriyah and of commanded to keep Kosher? is mourners not cutting their hair. answered in 11:44-47.

Haftorah Parah Yechezkel 36:16

This weeks Haftorah reflects the reading of Parshas Parah. Yechezkel, the prophet, berated the people for their defection away from G-d. Their behavior defiled Eretz Yisroel rendering them unfit to remain within her boundaries. Therefore, the Jews had to be exiled from their land and dispersed among the nations. The exile and the consequent suffering while in exile would serve as a process purification process for the nation. In essence, the exile would be a national Parah Adumah - Red Heifer. Central to the theme of the Haftorah is the fact that Hashem ultimately redeems the nation, for His own sake. While in exile the Jews are able to spread the word of G-d and teach His existence to the other nations. However, exile will also take its toll on the Jews. The Jews interaction with other nations will result in furthering the very defection which caused G-d to first punish the nation.
