This class covers Bamidbar Chapter 18, which addresses the aftermath of Korach's rebellion and establishes the responsibilities and compensation of the Kohanim and Leviim. The chapter teaches that higher levels of the hierarchy bear responsibility for protecting lower levels—the Kohanim must prevent others from dying by approaching the Mishkan improperly, and in exchange they receive various gifts (terumah, portions of offerings, firstborns). The Leviim serve as intermediaries, receiving ma'aser (tithes) as payment for their protective role, while giving terumas ma'aser to the Kohanim, and neither Kohanim nor Leviim receive land inheritance, ensuring they remain dependent on the people's gifts.
