Chukas - Cows, calves, and oxen

What is the fundamental understanding of the Red Cow? What is the concept of the cow in relationship to the Golden Calf? What is the significance of the calf as opposed to the cow and the ox? Why is Yosef represented by the ox? What is the significance of the egla arufa and what is it's importance in the story of Yosef and Yaakov? Why did only Moshe understand the depth of the mitzvah of the Parah Adumah? How does this connect to Moshiach ben Yosef?

Find out in this week's parsha podcast

This is an episode that I think is one of my best. It runs 19:56, but is well worth the time IMHO.
