		My servant Moses is not so; he is faithful in all my house: with him will I speak mouth to mouth, even manifestly, and not in dark speeches; and the form of the Lord shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?" (Num.12:6-8).

		The Talmud (Sanhedrin 110a) asks what it was precisely that Moses had heard, and Rabbi Samuel son of Nachmeyni says that he had heard that each Jewish husband suspected Moses of adultery with his wife, since the Torah had stated that "Moses took his tent and put it up outside the camp" (Exodus 33:7).
		They were apparently alleging that the reason Moses appointed Aaron and his sons as Priests was to avoid being involved in the procedure of the mayim hamarim (the bitter waters) that a wife suspected of infidelity has to drink, seeing the Priest was his blood relation, and as such unable to administer the procedure.
		Now that a quarrel had surfaced these suspicions were voiced openly, and that is why Moses fell on is face when he "heard." This is how one has to explain the plain meaning of the verse.

		The Alshech HaKadosh notes that the Torah passage regarding the consumption of meat -- which is normally translated as "to your heart's desire" -- actually says "to your soul's desire." The role of consuming meat is to bring one's desires closer to God.
		Therefore, Alshech HaKadosh states that the allowance of meat is not a concession to the baser part of man, rather it is a method of elevating the soul by refocusing the desires.
		Certainly on Shabbat and holy days, the eating of meat is part of the process of elevating the soul.
