Threading through these last Torah Portions of the book of Numbers is the theme of language. The classic word play on midbar and dibbur (wilderness and language) comes to a head in these final sections as Moses and the people confront their own bewilderments about speaking and mis-speaking. If the Egyptian exile is to be healed, the exile of language will have to be overcome.
