Shnayim Yomi - Terumah - Sheni - #2 - Rabbi Eliezer Zeytouneh - What the Keilim Teach Us

The second aliyah, this aliat discusses further about the furnishings of the Mishkan. In fact, it starts with the capor. The caporit was a golden cover that went on top of the aron. The Torah teaches us that the capor had to be zah, pure gold. Not only that, but the caporet as well had to have extra gold on the sides on the perimeters. Why? Because from the caporet, we had to fashion the cherubs which were the kuim. The rabbis explained that the kuim had the face of children. And it's very possible that the idea of the kuim and the way it was made and fashioned is to teach us how we have to raise our children. If the kapor and the represent the Torah, the kuim represent the education of our children has to be from the Torah itself has to be from the Torah. And it's very possible that the rabbis are teaching us that if you make enough room in your day in learning you have to make sure that we give enough time to learn with our kids to build our kids from our learning. How do you do that? Spend time with your child. What are you learning? What did you learn in today? What did you learn? What did you learn? Really? That's very interesting. I didn't know. And he could build and fashion these wonderful of children from your learning in Torah. The Torah then proceeds to tell us about the Shuhan. The Shukuhan was also made out of wood which was coated by gold. But if you take a look at the measurements of the shuhan, those were more complete because the length of the shan was two, two cubits. The width was one cubit and of course height was one and a half enabling you know the usage and the utility of the why is it that when it came to the the measurements were broken. they were incomplete but by the shukan they were complete. So we said yesterday that but when it comes to Torah learning you always have to look at yourself as if there is more to achieve more to attain but when it comes to which represents my enjoyment in this world every person has to look at his his table as if everything is done it's complete I need nothing more to be content I need nothing more to be satisfied the tells us about the borders that have to go around the table all the different components that go into the accessories of the table. And with that, we have completed the second. Have a wonderful day.
