Click here to listen, watch and connect! Parshaperspective.com Our Parsha begins following the death of Aaron's two sons, Nadav and Avihu. They died because they spontaneously entered the Kodesh Hakedshim, the holy of Holies. The Torah then explains the elaborate service of the Kohen Gadol on Yom Kippur. Amongst the many rituals, he was to bring an incense offering, the Ketores in the Holy of Holies and the draw lots for the fate of two identical goats. We find out what Azazel means. We learn the value of each Mitzvah!
