A lecture on the Torah & Shabbos
In this week’s Parsha, Moshe gives the first Shabbos lecture as he gathers the Children of
Israel. The Torah uses the term

Gematria of each letter gives us the following sequence; 3-(
kvehu, which means and he gathered. With the aid ofk)5-(v)1-(e)1(h) -6(u)
The number 611 (looking at it right to left like the Hebrew Alphabet is read) stands for
the Torah, and 53 stands for the 53 Parshiyos of the Torah. Hence we see that Moshe
taught them the whole Torah. It was an important lecture since they had to also learn
about the construction & setup of the Mishkan and the accounting of all the materials that
went into building it.
As regards the Shabbos, Moshe told us the following;

of the weekday grind.

The Story of Exodus
This week we read the last two
the Exodus is the greatest story ever told as it describes G-d’s caring and compassionate
role in the rescue of the Children of Israel from the “Iron Furnace” of Egypt. Even
though it occurred over three thousand years ago, it is relevant, because G-d, who exists
outside time and space, considers this event as a seminal part of our history, one which
we discuss and recall every day. As we say in
mere day to the Lord.” Moreover, despite the vastness of the universe and space (as
attested to by recent pictures from the Hubble Telescope) Hashem focuses His love on us
confirming our closeness to him.
Let’s review the Book of Exodus which describes our encounter with the Master of the
Universe . We learned about the first exile of the Children of Israel in Mitrzayim and
their years of slavery and suffering. Hashem heard their cries and sent His servant Moshe
to rescue them. Hashem sent Ten Plagues against Egypt and Pharaoh. After this
relentless assault, Pharaoh conceded and let the Children of Israel go. After we journeyed
from Mitzrayim, we halted at the Red Sea (Yam Suf). Pharaoh changed his mind and
together with the Egyptians pursued the children of Israel who cried out to Hashem.
Hashem told them to move on and that he would save them. Miraculously the waters
parted and the Children of Israel crossed the Yam Suf on dry land to the other side.
However, when the Egyptians chased after us, Hashem caused the waters to close over
them and they all perished. The Children of Israel then sang praises to Hashem. From
there, they traveled to Sinai where we received the Ten Commandments. Moses then
taught the nation numerous laws. Moses ascended Mount Sinai for forty days and forty
nights. Due to confusion as to the time of his return from the mountain, the Children of
Israel thought that Moses was not coming back and they demanded that Aharon make
them a new god. The Golden Calf emerged and the Children of Israel danced and were
merry. When Moses returned with the Stone Tablets and saw the Golden Calf, he threw
down the Tablets and broke them. He then destroyed the Golden Calf and several
thousand people died as a result of a plague in which Hashem punished them. After this
event, Moses was instructed regarding the building of the
vessels of the
(
accounting of all the related work. In the midst of describing the construction, Moses
discusses the laws of Shabbos (Sabbath). Our Rabbis derive from this that the 39
categories of work required to build and work in the
Sabbath. With the aid of codes, we see that the Sabbath is also intricately woven into the
vessels of the
pure gold (for the ark).”
it spells the term
pure gold in the eyes of the Lord. Since gold was the most
treasured element in the
similarly we must consider our Shabbos as the most treasured gift that we have. In fact,
the Sabbath is Heaven on Earth as we find an allusion to heaven in the following term
Parshiyos of the Book of Shemos (Exodus). The story ofPsalms, “one thousand years to man is aMishkan (Tabernacle), theMishkan and the special clothing of the High Priest and regular priestsKohen). The last two Parshiyos describes the actual building of the Mishkan and theMishkan are prohibited on theMishkan. The Torah says,ruvy cvz ,rpf aghu, “And he made a cover of1 If we take acronym of the encircled letters and rearrange them,,ca, Shabbos.

connected to the above phrase we have an allusion to souls. The Torah says,

On the Shabbos day we pray to God to return us to our Temple so that we can again offer
sacrifices to God. It is interesting to note that the words in the following phrase allude to

Near of the end of the double Parsha, we find that the Torah says the following phrase
twice within two pasukim (sentences) ;

phrases we have 38 letters. We learned in this Parsha that the Mishkan was erected on the
Second year in the desert. This means that the Mishkan was with the Children of Israel
for 38 years. Not only the Mishkan but the Glory of God never departed from it. May we
merit the return of the Glory of God in our third and final temple.
