<<Why did Moshe Rabbenu give Shevet Levi but not the other Shevatim?>>
The Rogatchover discusses this in several places. He distinguishes
between halacha, which is "morashas kehillas ya'akov", and "pilpulah
shel Torah", which Moshe could give to whomever he wished. Unfortunately
I don't have all of his sources at hand, but see his comments on
VaYelech 31:9, pp. 258-261 in his peirush on Humash. IIRC he says the
concepts more clearly somewhere else.
