In last week's Torah reading, Terumah, we read the details of the construction of the Tabernacle, the sanctuary in the desert. In this week's Parshah, Tetzaveh, we discover the special garments worn by the priests and high priest when serving in the Tabernacle. Following that, we read G‑d's instructions to Moses regarding the seven-day inauguration for the Tabernacle. The portion concludes with a description of one of the vessels of the Tabernacle—the Incense Altar. | | | | In this week's portion, Moses is not mentioned. This teaches us that a person's name is not one's essential identity.

Gordon | | | | | | Are you to abandon G‑d until you next have the time and are actually in the mood of plugging into your spiritual side? By Aharon Loschak | | | | | | There is a saying that our life is a gift from G‑d, but that what we do with that life is our gift back to G‑d. In order to make that remotely meaningful, we have to understand the exalted essence of a human being. By Hanna Perlberger | | | | | | The natural craving that each person has for recognition from other human beings sometimes swells without bounds into a monstrous desire for fame. The secret essence of fame, however, appears only in the "loneliest" moments with G-d. By Michael Chighel | | | | | | Do clothes make the man?

By Marty Goodman | | | | | When you squeeze an olive, you get olive juice. When you squeeze a Jew, you get Jewce… So often we find that when we are in a difficult spot, our soul emerges. This week's story is connected to this theme, along with the upcoming holiday of Purim Katan. It's a stark reminder that there is so much depth deep within that just needs to be revealed with a little bit of squeezing. By Zalman Tiechtel | | | | | | | |
