Can We Have Too Much Passion?
This week’s Torah portion introduces Pinchas, a man whose passionate actions challenge our ideas of leadership and zeal. Centuries later, Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai takes a similar path—speaking out with fiery conviction, only to learn that true strength comes from peace. Both stories remind us that in a world full of outrage, we need more than passion. We need balance, humility, and the wisdom to listen. What does it really take to lead with purpose today?
