Parashat Beha'alotcha: How do we deduce that Aharon HaKohen was a man of incredible physical strength? From the verse "Aharon shall wave the Levites as a wave-service before Yahweh from the Children of Israel, and they shall remain to perform the service of Yahweh." (Numbers 8:11) Methinks it would take super-human strength to physically wave the 8550 Levites eligible for service (Numbers 4:48), or the even greater number of 22,000 total Levite males (Numbers 3:39)!
