Shnayim Yomi - Shemini - Rishon - #1 - Rabbi Yosef Palacci - Aharon Begins the Avodah

Welcome everyone. So today we're discussing Parshat Shemini Aliya Rishona. This is amazing that happens. What happens is Moshe Rabbeinu was in the beginning setting up the Mishkan until pulling it up, assembling it, back and forth everyday. This was the eighth day and it was Rosh Chodesh Nisan. And this time Hashem told Moshe, Moshe, this is it. This is it. You're going to finally leave it up. The Mishkan is going to be you're going to set it up complete and Aaron is going to go ahead and bring the korbanot that has to be brought. Now, this was a great simcha for all of Bnei Yisrael. I'm talking about everybody. Why? Because this was the time where Aaron and his sons actually were going to go up and Aaron was going to be the one bringing the korban and there was going to be a special fire that was going to come down from Shamayim as soon as the korban was going to be made, as soon as it was going to be do shechitah on it, they're going to put on the mizbeach and guess what's going to happen? A fire is going to come and he's going to from Shamayim. This was going to be shown to all of Am Yisrael and everybody came were excited and it'll be for us a comfort that Hashem forgave us for the sin of chet ha'egel. That was wow. We want to be forgiven from the sin. We don't want We don't want it on our heads no more. So everybody gathered and everybody was excited and Aaron is now going up to the mizbeach and all of a sudden he sees as he's going up he sees on the corners he sees oh my goodness it reminded him like like horns of the of of of the of the egel. He didn't want. Moshe reassures him. Hashem told you, commanded you, go do it. And this is the beginning of the first aliya. He's going ahead and he's going bringing the korban and everybody is going to see this fire come down from Shamayim.
