Shnayim Yomi - Vayakhel-Pekudei - Rishon - #1 - Rabbi Eli Kadi - Building the Mishkan Together

It's the day after young Mosher Raenu just came down from the mountain forgave all the sins. His countenance is spiritual. He had to wear a mas a mask when he was talking to the people like that they would not get frightened. What is the first commandment that he gives? He gathers everybody together and he says the mitzvah of Shabbat that a person has to keep Shabbat. The first mitzvah after forgiveness after Yamipur is the beautiful mitzvah of Shabbat. Then Mosher Rabenu goes and tells Kal is that we have to gather money. We have to gather donations to be able to build a Mishkan where is going to be within us. Everything that was brought was gold and silver and stones etc etc etc. And then after he gives the enumeration of what is needed he requests that the wise people should come together to be able to build this. The men and the lady were so excited to be able to have the shina between us that everybody brought the most precious jewelry. Everything that they had, gold and silver, they gave with abundance with a open heart. They even gave the most personal items. If we look at the word humos, what did they bring? The ladies look at rashi. Rashi will tell you the most personal of personal things. They gave as a gift jewelry to the Mishkan. At the end of everything of the counting and giving at the end of the giving, what do we have? We have theim. What did the bringim bring? They brought the and the they brought the stones the precious stones that were on the shoulder straps of the cohen and that were on the hosen that was next to his heart. If you look over there is not spelled complete. It's spelled nun sin alf me. there's missing some yodin over there. So if we look at rashi, rashi tells us the reason why the yods are missing is because they rely they told kali bring whatever is missing. We're very wealthy. We're the presidents. We'll go and fill it up. Well, because of their because they weren't from the first ones, that's why they lost the two yodin. May we not be like that and always have the two yodin with us.
