                                                                                                                      It states, “                – When a person from among you will
                                                                                                                      bring.” From this we infer that just as an animal is sacrificed as an offering
                                                                                                                      for Hashem, so too, man must be prepared to sacrifice himself for
                                                                                                                      Hashem’s sake. The Ramban explains that a person can acquire this
                                                                                                                      degree of mesirut nefesh by contemplating that all that was done to the
                                                                                                                      animal was really meant to be done to him.

                                                                                                                      We can learn from the account of Pinchas the Kohen, who risked his life
                                                                                                                      to defend Hashem’s honor, without considering his personal safety.
                                                                                                                      Therefore, he was granted Divine assistance so that he should not be
                                                                                                                      defiled by the dead. This is a fulfillment of the statement, “A person who
                                                                                                                      comes to purify himself receives Divine assistance.”
