Shnayim Yomi - Vayakhel-Pekudei - Sheni - #2 - Rabbi Eli Kadi - A Community United in Giving

Moshe tells we have a young man that is going to take care of this whole project. He's going to manage everything. Do you know how old he was? Tell us he was 13 years old. His name was Ben. He came from Chevet Yehuda which is the royal family of Clal Israel. His grandmother, his father's mother was Miriam Han Mosherenu's sister. And what does he know? He knows. He understood every single person their desire and how they gave Saddaka. If they gave the gift with a full heart, it went closer to the mishkan. It went inside the kodesh inside the kesh keshim. He was able to understand everybody's reason for giving. And who was his partner? His partner was from Dan. Rashi tells us Dan is one of the lowest shivatim. But to build the Mishkan, it takes everybody to build it together. Not only the greats, but every person that comes together is able to build the Mishkan. Now, what's also very interesting, it goes a little bit further. Clad is bringing gold and silver and wool, etc., etc. They go and they tell the people are bringing too much. We have so much we're not going to be able to use it. Imagine if you're doing a collection and then they go and they say stop. We don't want any more money. That's it. Enough. I got enough for the day. That's exactly what happened over here. What was needed for the Mishkan was given and there was nothing extra that they wanted and nothing to take. The para the puk continues the the the Torah continues and tells us that about how the coverings were made they were made etc etc and how the columns were made that they were covered with gold and then also at the end it says Aron went and made the Aon From what? From wood ofim. Rashi explains to us every place else. It says if you look why over here because he was for it. When a person really does something with all their desire and really does it correctly, then tells everybody how special he is.
