“It was after the plague – Hashem spoke to
Moshe and to Elazar son of Aharon the Kohen,
saying: Take a census of the entire assembly of
the Children of Israel, from twenty years of age
and up, according to their fathers’ houses, all
who go out to the legion in Israel”

(Bamidbar 26:1-2)

Hordus, the king who originated from an Edomite tribe, made sure to
fulfill his promise and rebuild the Beit Hamikdash. All the more so,
should we, of pure lineage, maintain whatever we say.

When a person is punctilious in fulfilling his promises, he ascends to the
level of angels, whose words are holy of holies. This is because they do
not defile their mouths with mundane food. Although mankind depends
on material food, he can transcend materialism by keeping his word and
ensuring that words of Torah and mitzvot emanate from his mouth.
