Since this week’s parsha recounts the ascent of Moses / Moshe to Har Sinai (Mount Sinai), here’s a word search puzzle on that theme.
Shemot – Exodus
This book begins with the Jewish people enslaved in Egypt. God chooses Moshe / Moses to bring His people out of Egypt. After the redemption He gives His people the Torah and commands them to build the Tabernacle.

Since this week’s parsha recounts the giving on the Torah on Mount Sinai (Har Sinai), here’s a word search puzzle on that theme.
Beshalach 5773 – Bitachon and Hishtadlut
Earlier this week Lisa and I had the privilege of attending sheva berachot for newly weds David and Tova.
I volunteered to say a davar Torah. I’m sharing the part of it that ties in with Parshat Beshalach.
Motivating the People to Build the Tabernacle
Parshat VaYakhel – Pekudei 5772
Our tradition tells us that God forgave the Jewish people for the sin of the Golden Calf on Yom Kippur.
The next day Moses gathered the people and told them about the Divine command to build the Tabernacle (Mishkan).

3 Lessons After the Golden Calf
Parshat Ki Tisa 5772
After the sin of the Golden Calf, God told Moses that he was going to destroy the Jewish people.
After Moses destroyed the Golden Calf he then went back up to Har Sinai to plead for the people (Exodus 32:30-32).
After the Golden Calf
Parshat Ki Tisa 5772
If it’s possible for a whole nation to have a bad hair day, then the Jewish people had one.
The people were confused about when Moses would return from Har Sinai (Mount Sinai). They got anxious and urged Aaron to make a visual representation of God (Exodus 32: 1-6).
The Priestly Garments – Honor and Glory
Parshat Tetzaveh 5772
I have a confession to make.
I feel like I’ve never understood the concept of honor (kavod) and glory (tiferet) with regards to the priestly garments.
The Priestly Garments
Parshat Tetzaveh 5772
Last week Parshat Terumah described the building of the Mishkan (tabernacle).
This week we read about the priestly garments and the process of preparing the priests to service in the Mishkan.
