Only Gratitude

When the holy Torah begins its discussion of the "Red Heifer", it states, "This is the law of Torah". I always asked myself why the Torah says this; wouldn't it have been more appropriate to say, "This is the law of the heifer?" With Hashem's grace, my question was congruent with the holy Zohar that asks the identical question, as I heard from Rabbi Shlomo ben Hamo, the head rabbi of Kiriat Gat: the Zohar answers that the underlying principle of the Red Heifer is applicable to all of Torah, therefore it states, "This is the law of Torah" and not just the law of the Red Heifer. Let me explain further.
