PEKUDEI

To live in a time of miracles.  With all the materials to construct the Mishkan, it was at first too difficult for people to build it, so the Midrash says that Moses himself was able to make it take form, magically lifting the planks and setting them in place. The Shekhinah – the ‘dwelling’ – associated with the feminine aspect of Hashem – hovers over the tabernacle protecting it. Would that the Shekhinah return to protect us.
