Pinchas, the son of Aaron commits a murder and is awarded the covenant of peace. How can evil be perceived as a blessing and deserve a reward? Is it possible to do something bad, but have pure intentions, and so it becomes good? Why do bad things happen to good people? Through this question, we learn about what good and bad is and how our perspective is a key part of this equation. The lesson we learn from Pinchas is all about the lens that we view the world through. We hold the keys to the goodness that we desire.
