How can we explain Pinchas received the gift - peace with the fact that it comes following a violent act and later commanded the wars?
Many explain Pinchas received "inner peace with himself."

Ein Aya

Fix the Leak or Overhaul the Oil

Rav Kook makes some very interesting "diyukim" (deductions) from this passage in the Talmud about when to wash or moisterize (with oil) right before left, and regarding anointing one's entire body, and relates to small "timely" fixings, as opposed to general improvement.

PROTEKTZIA OR A BANANA REPUBLIC

Even in "Fiddler on the Roof" they mention that we wear the right shoe before the left, but why? Rav Kook's novel explanation surprisingly relates also to the danger of the Radical Progressive movement which sometimes intentionally blurs even that which should be clear, and even summarizes the laws which "lefties" do different than "righties", and when they do the same. Rav Kook's innovative mixture of halacha, kabbala and philosophy is especially interesting on this topic. BTW, there's an interesting halacha innovated by Rav Kook here which many don't realize (or intentionally omit) that he is the source!
