Pinchas Pulls Plug on Plague

A highly contagious disease with no known cure, broke out in the Israelite Camp yesterday. According to TNS health and wellness expert, Dr. Hachoo Gesundheit, the highly contagious disease originated among a group of Midianite women, but quickly spread to Jewish families.

In a surprise turnaround, this dreadful disease has ground to a halt thanks to the heroic actions of Pinchas ben Elazer. “This young hero took matters into his own hands,” commented Mrs. Omy Goodness. “With a few thrusts of his spear, he spared us from certain doom. His valiant action stopped the plague in its tracks.”
