A Lesson Well Learnt

39:32 Thus was finished all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting; and the children of Israel did according to all that the L-rd commanded Moses, so did they. When one reads the verse carefully, it seems redundant. The first half talks about how the Bnei Yisrael finished doing everything, and the [...]

לקח טוב

" וַתֵּכֶל--כָּל-עֲבֹדַת, מִשְׁכַּן אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד; וַיַּעֲשׂוּ, בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל--כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה ה' אֶת-מֹשֶׁה, כֵּן עָשׂוּ." (שמות לט:לב) כאשר קוראים את הפסוק בריכוז, חלק נראה מיותר. תחילת הפסוק מדבר על איך שסיימו לעשות הכל, וסוף הפסוק אומר שהם עשו הכל! המהרש"ם מסביר את החלק השני של הפסוק כדלהלן: מטרת בניית המשכן לאחר חטא העגל היה ליצור "מרכז [...]

The Fine Print

On Six days work may be done, but the seventh day shall be holy for you day, a day of complete rest (Shemos 35:2) Chazal is replete with all kinds of promises for success in a variety of areas of life. Yet we can all verify that there have been times that we seemingly fulfilled the [...]

האותיות הקטנות

"שֵׁשֶׁת יָמִים, תֵּעָשֶׂה מְלָאכָה, וּבַיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי יִהְיֶה לָכֶם קֹדֶשׁ שַׁבַּת שַׁבָּתוֹן" (שמות לה:ב) כתבי חז"ל מלאים בכל מיני הבטחות להצלחה במגוון תחומים. עם זאת, כולנו יכולים להגיד שהיו פעמים שאנחנו לכאורה קיימנו את המצוות כפי שצוינו על פי חז"ל, אבל ההצלחה המובטחת לא נראה שהתרחשה. החפץ חיים בהלכות "נטילת ידיים" עוסק בסוגיה זו. הבן איש [...]

Pashut: PUSH IT!

The Medrash tells us that Betzalel merited to have an unbelievable amount of profound knowledge to the point that he was able to understand the inner workings of the Creation of the World. This was given to him because of the mesiras nefesh of his ancestors Chur and Miriam. It seems to me that one must explain why mesiras nefesh is [...]
