Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn Ztl on \u05e4\u05e8\u05e9\u05ea \u05e9\u05de\u05d9\u05e0\u05d9 .\xa0\nDiscussed:\n\n Understanding the concept behind Korbonos, and why Ahron brought a Korbon Chattas for himself and a Korbon Olah for Klal Yisrael to atone for the \u05d7\u05d8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05e2\u05d2\u05dc (sin of the Golden Calf).\n The Malbim writes that each person represents a mini-Mishkan. Man's Avoda is to sacrifice his animalistic nature, paralleling the Kohen's Avoda in the Bais Hamikdash.\n The Kli Yakir explains, based on a Medrash, how Machlokes and jealousy (\u05de\u05db\u05d9\u05e8\u05ea \u05d9\u05d5\u05e1\u05e3) lead to Avoda Zara (\u05d7\u05d8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05e2\u05d2\u05dc).
