The Peleg-Auerbach Crazies are just one step away from Cursing Hashem C"V

 

In this week’s parsha, Emor, the Torah recounts the troubling story of the מקלל mekalel — the man who, shockingly, cursed the Ribbono Shel Olam.

But what pushed him to such an unthinkable act?

Chazal fill in the background.

The mekalel noticed that the Lechem HaPanim, the showbread, remained on the Shulchan for an entire week. He was outraged.

“Is this how we honor Hashem? A king is served warm, freshly baked bread. Why should God receive week‑old bread?”

In his mind, he was standing up for Kavod Shamayim. He was a kanoi, a zealot for Hashem’s honor.

And yet — only minutes after this supposed righteous indignation — he turned around and cursed the very God he claimed to defend.

What happened?

First, his entire premise was mistaken.

The Lechem HaPanim was not offered to Hashem on the Mizbeach at all. It was eaten by the Kohanim — and they were perfectly satisfied with it. Moreover, the Midrash teaches that the bread miraculously stayed fresh and warm all week long.

So why was he inserting himself into a matter that wasn’t his business, and that he didn’t understand?

Because this is the danger of people who fight “leshem Shamayim.”

When a person convinces himself that he is battling for God, that he alone knows what Hashem wants, that his anger is holy — that very passion can twist into something destructive.

The same fire that he believes is righteous can turn him, in moments, into a mekalel.

A fight that begins “for Hashem” can end in the exact opposite.

The Peleg-Auerbach crazies bring their Gemarras and Seforim while sitting and blocking buses and cars filled with mothers trying to get home to feed their children, with the elderly sitting in traffic for hours, with fathers trying to get home after a whole day at work, children anxious to get home, but they are doing "God's work" it's after all, לשם שמים

I would not be surprised to hear that many will turn and become the infamous מקלל!

There is an instagram channel where many of these Peleg-Auerbach have already turned and gone off the derech!
