Last week’s Parsha was about the planning and building of the Mishkan’s structure. In this week’s Parsha, the Torah talks about building the keilim, the vesels, of the Mishkan, as well as the uniform and dress code of the Kohanim working in the Mishkan and the Beis Hamikdash.
The very first thing in this week’s Parsha, is the mitzvah of the Menorah and the Neiros. Do you know why the first part of the avoda is the Menorah? Because in order to do any work for the Ribono Shel Olam, you need to turn on the light. “Layehudim Hoysa Orah”-“For the Jews, there was a great light.”
Good Shabbos to all,
Zevi
