Terumah – Out of the Woods

During the Sinai revelation, the nation achieved the peak human experience. The entire people—men, women, and children—experienced God face-to-face (as it were) on the highest level of prophecy. But then it ended. The prophecy ended, the mountain was restored to its pre-Revelation state, and Moshe alone ascended the mountain. Sinai was not supposed to be a one-and-done; it was perpetuated with the Tabernacle. “Build me a tabernacle,” God said, “and I will dwell in your midst.” If we simply follow the precise instructions, the presence of God will be amongst us. – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of Joelle Hannah Khorsandi , daughter of my dear friend Parham Khorsandi whose bat mitzvah is this week.
