This coming week’s parshios are Vayakhel-Pekudei, as we close the book of Shemos once again, with the completion of the Mishkan and the resting of the Shechina within. Sefer Ha’Geula, the Book of Redemption (the appellation for Sefer Shemos) that began with the Egyptian enslavement...
This week’s parsha, Parshas Ki Sisa, opens with the following words: And Hashem spoke to Moshe saying: כִּי תִשָּׂא אֶת-רֹאשׁ בְּנֵי-יִשְׂרָאֵל, לִפְקֻדֵיהֶם, וְנָתְנוּ אִישׁ כֹּפֶר נַפְשׁוֹ לַה’, בִּפְקֹד אֹתָם - When you take a census of the Children of Israel according to their counts, every...
This coming Shabbos, the Shabbos before Purim, we will read from two Sifrei Torah. From the first, we will read the weekly Parsha, Parshas Tetzaveh, which continues the instruction regarding the building of the Mishkan and all that was required within it, for the service...
In this week’s parsha, Parshas Terumah, Moshe and the Bnei Yisrael are commanded regarding the donations for, and construction of, the Mishkan (the Tabernacle), from wherein G-d’s Presence would dwell amongst the people. The Mishkan was a place of spirituality, which rested in the center of...
In this week’s parsha, Parshas Mishpatim, the narrative of Matan Torah continues. In contrast to the Revelation at Sinai - the thunder, lightning, smoke, and shofar blast which accompanied the Aseres Ha’Dibros - as related to us in last week’s parsha, Mishpatim is a parsha...
In this week’s parsha, Parshas Yisro, the Bnei Yisrael achieve spiritual freedom with the giving, and receiving, of the Torah at Har Sinai. The fulfillment of Hashem’s promise to Moshe at the sneh (burning bush), has come to fruition: בְּהוֹצִיאֲךָ אֶת-הָעָם, מִמִּצְרַיִם, תַּעַבְדוּן אֶת-האלקים, עַל...
In this week’s parsha, Parshas Beshalach, the Bnei Yisrael find themselves trapped between the Sea of Reeds on one side and the Egyptians on the other side. וַיִּשְׂאוּ בְנֵי-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-עֵינֵיהֶם וְהִנֵּה מִצְרַיִם נֹסֵעַ אַחֲרֵיהֶם, וַיִּירְאוּ מְאֹד - And the Children of Israel lifted their eyes,...
In this week’s parsha, Parshas Bo, Pharaoh, his countrymen, and the land of Egypt are further decimated by the three final plagues: arbeh (locusts), choshech (six days of darkness), and makkas bechoros (the death of the firstborn). With the final plague, as death runs rampant throughout...
In this week’s parsha, Parshas Va’era, the Israelite slaves will finally see that redemption is on its way, as the Eser Makkos (Ten Plagues) begin to unfold, when G-d unleashes His power and might upon Pharaoh and his countrymen. While wreaking havoc to the natural...
