Korach and his cohorts perished in the aftermath of the rebellion, yet his sons, who repented, survived.<\/p>\n<p><em>Genre:<\/em><br \/>\nPsalm of Wisdom&#8211;This psalm contains teachings and wise advice and are meant to instruct people on how to live a Godly life.<\/p>\n<p><em>Chapter Summary:<\/em><br \/>\nThis psalm serves as a reminder that there is so much more to life than physical pleasures. Happiness is not measured solely by material wealth, and misery not by a lack thereof. Rather, it is the pursuit of spiritual wealth through which one attains true happiness.<\/p>\n<p>This psalm consists of twenty-one verses, subdivided into five parts. This first verse serves as a heading.<br \/>\nIn verses 2-5, the psalmists inform the reader that the following are words of wisdom, understanding and riddles, to be accompanied by the music of the harp, are directed at all of mankind.<br \/>\nIn verses 6-11, they proclaim their trust in God, and remind us that death is the end of all men, from which one cannot be freed with material wealth. <br \/>\nIn verses 12-15, they direct their attention to the wealthy who fool themselves into thinking that through their wealth they can achieve eternal life.<br \/>\nIn verses 16-21, they again proclaim their trust in God, and repeat the refrain that a man\u2019s wealth is no help to him once he is dead.<\/p>\n<p><em>Musical Instrument:<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u05db\u05e0\u05d5\u05e8&#8211;Kinor<\/em>&#8211;A Small Handheld Harp&#8211;played with a plecturm (pick).<\/p>\n<p><em>Shimush Tehillim&#8211;When to Say:<\/em><br \/>\nFor a fever&#8211;Verse 16 states: \u201cBut God will redeem my soul from the [grasp of] the grave, for He will take me [to Himself].<\/p>\n<p><em>Where in the Siddur:<\/em><br \/>\nRecited on the Shabbat of Parashat Shekalim (one of the four special readings during the months of Adar and Nisan).<br \/>\nRecited following the Shacharit (morning service) and Ma\u2019ariv (evening service) in a house of mourning.<br \/>\nRecited at the graveside burial service.<br \/>\nVerse 16 is found in the <em>Yizkor<\/em> memorial service recited on Yom Kippur and the <em>Shalosh Regalim<\/em>&#8211;the Festivals of <em>Shemini Atzeret<\/em> (eighth day of Sukkot), Pesach, and Shavu\u2019ot.<br \/>\nVerse 6 is found in <em>Yesod HaTeshuvah<\/em> (Foundation of Repentance) recited in some congregations on the eve of Rosh HaShana.
