Noach 5773
Before the Flood
I find Noach to be a very interesting and puzzling person.
From this parasha until the end of Sefer Shemot, the Chumash focuses on building and inaugurating the Mishkan (tabernacle).
Earlier this week I gave a brief introduction to the Mishkan.
From this parasha until the end of Sefer Shemot, the Chumash focuses on building and inaugurating the Mishkan (tabernacle).
The Mishkan is the portable temple that the Jews were commanded to build in the desert. It was disassembled every time they moved from one camp to another and then rebuilt.
The main part of the Mishkan was a tent that was divided into two sections – the Holy and the Holy of Holies.
