Rabbi Binyamin Yuhanan - Parashat Tetzaveh

[Music] good evening welcome today we are learning about parashat ted save and we'll speak a little bit about putin as well we are on page 400 and 64 of art scroll homage and since thursday night is putin let's find a small connection between the parsha and putin most of the years parashat petsave falls in the same week as purim so what's the connection and i'm sure there are many connections but one particular one that i heard recently is the fact that on purim we read the miguel ester and in the miguel ester uh very often it speaks about clothing first it describes the beautiful cloth that was used for the party that ahashverosh made and then it spoke about the lack of clothing that ahashverosh wanted his wife to come with ordered the queen vashti to come and present herself in front of everyone without any clothing and then later it says that mordechai when he heard that um the evil decree was made about the jews he removed his clothing and he put on sackcloth and then it says that when esther found out that mordechai is wearing sackcloth she sent for him a special set of clothing and she begged him please remove your cyclops put normal clothes on and he didn't and then it says that uh when king ahashverosh wanted to reward mordechai for informing him of the plot of assassination haman gave him an idea you should take royal garments royal clothing that king himself wore and put it on mordechai and said exactly that's an excellent idea do this to mordechai and haman had to dress more the high with garments that king khashoggi himself wore and then it says when time came for esther to uh approach the king king khashoggi to beg him to change the decree and to protect the jews she wore royal garments and at the end of mcgill it says that after haman was killed and mordechai was made the new prime minister instead of haman gave him royal garments uh of of um blue wool so throughout the megillah we read about clothing we read about all kinds of clothing lack of clothing sackcloth royal clothing and this particular almost entirely speaks about clothing what kind of clothing special clothing of kohanim of priests the the great coin and regular coin so what is so special about clothing why is mcgill speaking about clothing and why do kohanim need special clothing what does clothing represent so the sages of kabbalah tell us that clothing compared to our body is similar to our body for our soul just like clothing covers and protects the body so too our human body covers and protects the soul that means that whenever we hear in torah the word clothing it's a sign for us that we're talking about physical body and it it it is it is um informing us that there is some kind of discussion and connection a hint to the uh process that happens between the soul and the physical body so the the the physical body serves as a vehicle for the soul which means the soul being spiritual cannot exist on its own in the physical world it will escape it cannot connect to it it cannot operate within it and in order for the soul to be able to accomplish to be able to interact with the physical world it needs a physical body so the body is not bad unlike other philosophies in judaism we view human body as holy why because it is a helper for the soul without the body the soul would not be able to accomplish what it needs so if the body is used to serve the soul then the body is fulfilling its purpose and then the body is holy it's good however if the body ignores the soul and the person runs only after the desires of the body then what happens is that the soul of a human being and the mind of the human being are serving the body and then you're making out of a secondary item you're making primary item so you're losing the the the whole uh purpose of of uh creation of soul and the purpose of creation of the body um so megillah is is telling us there's a lot of concentration on the outer there's a lot of discussion about the clothing and if you think about the holiday of pudding it's the same thing we are covering ourselves with masks what do masks represent we put masks on top of our face on top of our body even on top of our clothing to hide ourselves as if one layer of hiding is not enough the body already hides the soul the physical body already makes it look like there is no spirituality and on top of the body we put a mask as in in math you have negative times negative gives you a positive when we put a mask on top of our clothing and on top of our body we are reminding ourselves and telling ourselves and others don't think that the body is real don't think that the body is the main thing i'm gonna cover the body i'm gonna cover the clothing to remind us that there is something hiding behind the body don't look at the body and don't look at your clothing cover it and that's exactly the message of putim and that's exactly the message of megillah the way it happened looked natural all events looked like they just political discussion political events that are happening between the ministers and between the king and between the jewish people and the the there is a decree of of uh a human minister against the jewish nation and the megillah tells us it's all clothing it's all a mask from beginning till end we speak about clothing and it's in order to hint to us what you read in the megillah don't take it that is face valley value there's something deeper remove the clothing look deeper and you will see that there is spiritual dimension there is god behind the scenes who is running the show and so when we now connect the megillah to our parsha find the same idea kohen gadol has a special set of eight garments cohen hideyot a regular kohen has a special set of four garments when they serve in betamgdash they're supposed to remove their own clothing cohen gadol is not allowed to serve in his own clothing he has to serve in a specific set of clothing that is described in the torah if he is missing one of the garments his service is nullified it's invalid if he adds another kind of article of clothing his service in is invalid so again the idea is that as a representative of the jewish people in front of god quran has to realize that my clothing is has no meaning unless it is used in the service of god unless i'm doing good things with it my body has no meaning unless i'm doing spiritual pursuits with it the body like the horse and the soul is like the rider if the horse is controlled and directed by the rider it gets to places if the horse runs wild and the rider doesn't do anything there's no accomplishment the opposite the horse might only break its feet and throw the rider off so too when the body is controlled by the soul the body is accomplishing a lot and the body is elevating itself and the whole world with it but when the soul is not in control of the body the body runs wild and it damages itself and it damages the soul and it may even cause early death from its wrong decisions so cohen any kohen regular cohen and coin gadol when they served in beta mikdash they had to serve without shoes bare foot their feet their naked feet had to touch the marble floor of beit amigdas why is that and that is because shoes represent to a greater degree the body even more so than clothing why because our sages say that the body only contains a small portion of the soul majority of the soul is above our body our body is like a shroom for the for the for the soul just like a shoe only contains the small part the tiny part of the body just the the foot majority of the body is above the shoe so too our physical body like the shoe for the soul only contains the lowest small part of [Music] of the soul majority of the soul is above by the way that is why both men and women cover their hair i mean the head why do jewish people wear a head covering both men and women the young girls who are not married don't wear head covering for simple reason that they are supposed to look attractive to get married but once once a young lady gets married she must cover her head just like a man a jewish man always has to have something on his head the whole day where he's whether he's sitting walking working eating he has to have something on his head and a jewish woman from the moment she gets married she has to cover her hair and even according to sapphire the tradition even an unmarried girl when she's praying or making blessings or studying torah she's supposed to have something on her head that is why according to safari the tradition we have women's yamakas we have uh women's special little hats that young ladies that are not married yet where when they pray learn torah or say blessings and that is why if you remember old grandmothers when they hear words of torah or when they hear a blessing right away they take a napkin and they put on their head or right away they take something and they put on their head why you're surprised they don't cover their hair and even with that little napkin doesn't cover all the whole head all their hair and the point is they're not covering their head in order to cover their hair they're covering their head because they heard a blessing because they heard the words of torah and they know that out of respect we have to cover our head now where am i getting it why do jewish men and women have to cover their head and that is because we want to show that i don't end where my head ends where my physical head and where my physical hair ends that's not the end of a human being there's something beyond that is the soul as we said the soul occupies the only the tiny part of the soul occupies the body majority of the soul is above spanning all spiritual worlds all the way until the throne of glory of hashem so we cover the end of our head in order to show anyone who is looking at us don't look at me as a physical body i don't end where my physical body ends so we cover the end of our body so a kohen is supposed to serve in betamigdash without shoes so that there is a connection between his body and the the holy ground of the temple there should be no physical barrier so as we read this parsha pasha tetzaveh we remember the lessons of purim that clothing hides the essence of of the object so too the events of our daily life might hide god's hand uh behind behind history another um idea we have to keep in mind when we read miguel at a stare and many mentions of clothing and when we read is that clothing is a symbol of modesty because a person is different than an animal a human being was created without wool without thick hair covering his body a human being needs protection of clothing but that protection is not only for warmth or against heat or against wind or rain clothing was also designed by god to to raise the status of a human being the more clothing covers your body the more dignified you look the more respect and more dignity you have and we see that at least in olden times i'm not sure if that's still the rule store supermarkets had a rule that without t-shirt you cannot enter the store or in the olden times they they had the rule that if you enter a government building you have to have respectable clothing on shoes pants shirt tucked in and jacket and there was a rule that anyone that occupies public post must always wear suit and tie and the higher you go the more requirements they put on you it used to be that the president of the united states was required to wear not only suit and tie he also was required to wear a hat later as the value of a human being decreased as the respect for human being decreased slowly the layers of clothing were shed and slowly people start equating themselves to animals so in judaism clothing has has a very important meaning respect for the body respect for other humans and modesty okay now let's begin the partial we're on page 465 of the articles first we have the commandment to light the menorah but before you light the minor you have to prepare the candles and you have to prepare oil special pure oil to be lit in the menorah so the verse says verse 20. command the children of israel and they shall take for themselves pure olive oil pressed for illumination to kindle the menorah the lamp continually sons of aharon shall arrange it from the evening until the morning the menorah the candelabra in the temple was lit right before sunset and it stayed lit until more the morning which means kohanim put enough oil in in each candle in each lamp to last the entire night and then in the morning if it goes out it goes out if it doesn't go out then when the next afternoon comes kohanim come and they clean out the old wick if there is any ash and then they replace with a new wick and they add oil and then the kohen lights the menorah again before sunset now we're going to chapter 28 verse 1 and here we learn about uh the the garments the vestments of kohanim bring close to yourself your brother and his sons and at this point has four sons later will learn about the death of his two sons nadav and avihu verse 2 you shall make vestments which means clothing of sanctity for on your brother for glory and splendor that's what clothing is glory it brings glory to the human being and splendor and find artisans wise-hearted men who have a spirit of wisdom and they shall make these vestments what are these garments verse four lists them the breastplate the afford and we're going to speak about each one the tunic now we'll go to page 467 the turbine turbine means a hat and a sash and it refers to a belt and on top of that cohen gadol also wore pants which are not listed here they listed elsewhere as well as fitz since is a head plate golden head play so the kohang gadol wore eight garments and a regular kohan only wore four garments the pants the uh the robe or the tunic the belt and a hat okay now we start with the effort the apron in verse six make the effort of gold golden thread turquoise wool purple wool scarlet wool and twisted linen so a ford was made from five different kinds of thread including a golden thread and it shall have two shoulder straps so imagine a regular belt that goes around the lower half of your body with ties that you make a bow tie with plus it had two shoulder straps going from the back and stopping at the at your shoulders to these shoulder straps later we'll learn will be attached the breast plate of coin godot verse eight describes the belt of of the effort so uh cohen gadol had two belts one the belt on top of his long shirt and another the belt of the effort now we're speaking about the belt of the effort the belt which with which it is in place tied onto your body shall be of the same workman's workmanship it's also made from gold turquoise purple and scarlet wool and twisted linen and on each shoulder straps there should be two shoham stones two precious stones and on each stone you engrave the names of the children of israel which means the twelve tribes six of the tribes are listed on one shoulder six of the tribes are listed on the other shoulder this may remind you of a general and his shoulder insignia tells you which army he is part of and his status so coin gadol on his shoulder straps uh on the precious stone had names of all tribes to remind him that he is a representative of the jewish people he is there to do the service for the jewish people now um talmud says that each one of the precious stones that were on the shoulder straps had 25 letters 25 letters on one 25 letters or another and the way it works out perfectly six names of of six tribes have 25 letters and six names of the other six tribes form 25 other letters perfectly all together it's 50 letters all the names of the 12 tribes together you have 50 letters that is the 50 gates of holiness and these stones how are they attached to the shoulder straps they are encircled with gold setting so the gold setting is attached to the shoulder strap and the stone is attached to the gold like like a like a ring that that of gold that surrounds the stone and holds it in place now on page 469 verse 12 you shall place both stones on the shoulder straps of the effort and they're called remembrance stones for the children of israel aharon or after him every kohen gadol shall carry their names before hashem on both his shoulders as a remembrance verse 13 you shall make settings of gold for these shoham stones and two chains of pure gold of braided craftsmanship and place the braided chains on the settings so the two shoulder straps come from the back and they end on on on the kohen's shoulders these shoulder straps have gold settings and precious stones on top these gold settings are connected to golden chains and the golden chains are connected to the breastplate and they hold the breastplate verse 15 speaks about breastplate you shall make the breastplate of judgment this is called hoshan mishpak why is it called the breastplate of judgment because inside this breastplate the breastplate is folded it's a square if you unfold it it's going to be like double square and in between the folds you put special name of hashem and when when cohen gadol is asked a question through the prophecy and through this this breastplate of judgment the judgment appears on the breastplate and we're going to see how it happens so make a breastplate of judgment of of a woven design similar craftsmanship like the effort like the the apron of gold turquoise purple and scarlet wool and linen twisted all together shall you make it it shall be square folded have an amma length and half an amma height that means you take your hand from the tip of your finger until your shoulder and you take half of that so this was approximate size of the breastplate you shall fill it with stone mountings just like the shoulder straps it had golden settings 12 of them four precious stones four rows of stone each row had three stones and you had four rows of three stones each altogether twelve and it lists each stone by name we don't know most of these names and we'll just quickly say say the names but they might not mean anything to us in modern hebrew means diamond sapir means set fire leshem tarshish and 12 precious stones set in gold shall they be the stones shall be according to the names of the sons of israel so just like the shoulder straps had precious stones and on each precious stone you had six tribes listed on each one together twelve so two on the breastplate you had 12 stones each one corresponding to a tribe and therefore you had the name of the tribe engraved in that stone stones shall be according to the names of the sons of israel 12 according to their names engraved like a cygnet ring signet ring means in olden times they had a a ring and on it there was a reverse stem with which it's called signet ring because you sign with it you would dip it into a soft wax or tar any kind of soft material and this ring would imprint your personal signature which means uh the picture was indented in there in the ring so too the names of the tribes were engraved in the stone so the effort the breastplate had 50 letters which spell out all the names of 12 tribes now when when a a person had a question to ask from god he would phrase his question in front of cohen gadon and he would receive an answer the answer would be printed on the breastplate the breastplate you can imagine it was like a screen like a computer screen and the stones would light up and each stone had letters and the letters that are necessary for the answer would light up and the cohen gadol would look at the letters that lit up and he would combine them to form words and sentences and and that would serve as an answer to the person who asked the question okay now we're on in verse 23 we said that there are two golden chains connecting the the shoulder settings with precious stones to the breastplate for the breastplate you shall make two rings of gold at each top corner and you shall place the two rings of the two ends of the breastplate and you shall place the two golden ropes on the two rings so again you had the the a fold the apron apron head shoulder straps shoulder straps ended with golden settings with precious stones with six tribes on each and these settings were connected to golden chains which were connected to two golden rings and the two golden rings were attached to two ends two corners two upper corners of the breastplate of coin gadon and you shall make in verse 26 two additional rings of gold and place them at the bottom two bottom corners of the breastplate now we turn to page 471. verse 28 they shall attach the breastplate from its rings to the rings of the effort with a turquoise woolen cord so on the bottom the two golden rings were connected to two turquoise wool um strings that connected it to the bottom part of the apron so the breastplate was hanging on golden ropes to attach to the shoulder straps and on the bottom it was attached with a turquoise wool so that it shouldn't move horizontally it should be tight and it shouldn't fall down it's attached with golden chords now we go to verse 30 and now we speak about urim this is the name of hashem that is placed in the fold of the of the the breastplate into the breastplate of judgment shall you place the urem and the two meme and they shall be on aharon's heart when he comes before hashem and aharon shall bear the judgment of the children of israel on his heart constantly before hashem why are they called urem and they're called urem because that comes from the word or urim are lights because they light up and to meme come from comes from the word tom perfect which means they give enlightenment they give perfect answer whoever asks them but only um you're only allowed to ask them question that that relates to the nation to the the whole the entire jewish people so only a prophet or a king or or cohen himself could ask the urim to meme question so usually they would ask that urimur to me if they needed to go to war or they needed to make an important political decision that would affect the whole nation now in verse 31 we go to the eel the robe you shall make the robe of the effort entirely of turquoise wool and its head opening was folded and and it had a border all around so that when the cohen gadol wears it it should not be torn and that is in fact a negative commandment uh that we're not allowed to tear garments of coin gadot and what was on the bottom of the eel the the the turquoise wool robe verse 33 you shall make on its hand hem means the bottom part of the of the robe pomegranates special woven pomegranates that are made from turquoise purple and scarlet wool all around the bottom part of the rope now we're on page 473 and gold bells between them all around so the hem of cohen gadol which was a golden turquoise wool head on it beautiful pomegranates made of turquoise purple and scarlet wool little balls look like pomegranates and in between the the woolen pomegranates you have golden bells verse 35 it must be on aharon in order to minister which means or any kohen gadol after him had to wear all eight garments in order to minister and what is the purpose of these bells its sound shall be heard when he enters the sanctuary before hashem when he leaves so that he not die when we enter a room before we go in we have to knock on the door in fact halacha says that even when a person enters his own house he must knock first in order to let people know that he's coming in not to catch them by surprise all the more so when you enter king's palace you have to announce yourself and certainly when you enter the house of god so when cohen cadoll enters the sanctuary he has to make noise and this noise was made by the bells on his robe this is similar to the bells that we find on our sephir torah as we carry the sephir torah there are what we call rimonim golden uh little golden crowns that we put on sephirth and as we carry the sephir torah from the aranakodish from the ark to the bhima the bells make noise why in order to inform people to rise that sephir torah is being carried soto as ko and gadol goes into the sanctuary his uh the the bells on his robe make noise again hashem sees everything he doesn't need to to hear the noise but still we behave towards hashem with the same respect as we would give to a king now we are in verse 36 we're speaking about sith the golden head plate that coined godol war you shall make a head plate of pure gold and you shall engrave upon it holy to hashem it should say kodesh and hashem's name kodesh la hashem some say it was written on on one a line some say it was written on two lines with the word hashem higher kodesh le and hashem's name you shall place it on a chord of turquoise wool and it shall be on the turbine on the head which means the head plate was connected above and on sides with turquoise wool and it was on top of the turban the hat the kohen gadol wore and between the hat and the head plate there was space for tiffin because even kohen gadol wore te filin in the olden times the jewish man were to fill in the entire day and even kohanim and even cohen gadol while wearing the garments the priestly garments they would also wear tifilin so there was exactly the space for te filin uh between the head plate plate and the turban okay now why do we need the head plate verse 38 explains it shall be on aharon's forehead so that aharon shall bring forgiveness for a sin regarding the sacred offerings that the children of israel consecrate and it shall be on his forehead always to bring them favor before hashem so the gemara teaches us that when kohen gadol wore this had played if there was any mistake in the offering the offering was accepted after the fact the offering was accepted anyway so the the head plate that said kodesh hashem it's holy for hashem atoned for any wrong thought or a mistake that was performed in the offering now in verse 39 we speak about the tunic which is called ketone you shall make a linen tunic of a box like meat basically like an undershirt and now we speak about the the hat you shall make a linen turban so we see that some garments of kohanim were wool some were linen some were combination of wool and linen which means they were chadness but during the service kohanim were allowed to wear these garments which are shatness because when you're doing a mitzvah at the same time when there is a prohibition the torah allows you to ignore the prohibition for example a man who has seed made out of of linen but the the the heli the blue wool is wool he is allowed to put the wool on the linen even though it's shatness because he's fulfilling the mitzvah of sit with it so too cohen gadol or regular kohen according to some opinions that has shatners in their clothing are allowed to wear it because they are serving god at that time and now we speak about belts and in english it's called sash and make them sashes and reg oh and make sesh of embroiders work now we speak about the four vestments the four garments of ordinary kohanim for the sun we're in verse 40. for the sons of aharon you shall make tunics the undershirts and make them sashes belts and you shall make them head dress hat for glory and splendor and it doesn't mention um pants both for coin gadol and for regular quani they wore pants under the robe with them you shall dress aharon your brother and his sons and you shall anoint them which means you pour olive oil on their head inaugurate them and sanctify them and shall they shall minister to me now we're on page 475 in verse 42 we actually speak about the pants you shall make them linen breeches an english word for hands to cover the flesh of the of the nakedness from the hips to their thighs shall they be so they were like long shorts now we're in in the ver in chapter 29 the inauguration ritual we briefly spoke about it on previous page you shall dress them you shall anoint them and inaugurate them this is the matter that you shall do for them to sanctify them to minister to me so they had to bring special inauguration offerings what are they composed of take one young bull two rams unleavened breads unleavened loaves mixed with oil unleavened wafers smeared with oil and place them in a single basket and bring them in the basket with the bowl and the two rams the the kohanim have to dip in the microwave you shall take the vestments the garments and dress with his eight garments and his sons with their four garments and you shall take the anointment oil and pour it on his head and anoint him and the same you shall do for his sons they have to go to the mikvah and wear four garments now the kohen gadol is anointed with olive oil anointment in hebrew is mishiha that is why the kohen gadol is called kohan mashiach which means the anointed kohen regular quranim are not anointed and that is why our messiah we call mashiach the word messiah is a english pronunciation of the word mashiach which means the anointed one because we use this anointment oil to anoint to inaugurate kings and kohen gadol so since mashiach is going to be our king he will be anointed so mashiach means the anointed one the one that is prepared for greatness we are in on page 477 it describes in verse 10 how you shall offer the bull um sin offering and then we go to um verse 15 it describes the first ram offering which is hola completely burnt offering elevation offering then we go to verse 19. the second ram which is called the ram of inauguration el jamilluin and here there is some um ritual that involves kohanim and we're going to read about it take some blood of the ram that you slaughtered the inauguration realm and place the blood on the middle part of the ear of aharon of his right ear and on the middle part of the ear of his sons the right one so we take the blood of the ram and we put it on the right ear and we put some more blood and we put it on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot and the rest of the blood we throw on the altar all around and then we take some of the blood that is on the altar and some of the anointment oil and we sprinkle it on the aharon and his garments and on his sons and their garments and they shall be become holy and then certain sacrificial parts of the ram we burn on the on the altar and then we offer the minho offering the loaves of bread that we mentioned in the wafers from before um we are on page 479 the aharon and his sons they take the the the wafers and the loaves in the basket and they wave it together okay and they take parts of the the inauguration ram and they hold it together and they waive it at the same time now we go to verse 29 what happens if one kohen gadol dies for example when aharon died what happened to his garments verse 29 says the holy vestments of aharon shall belong to his sons after him to become elevated through them to become inaugurated through them and the inauguration period lasts for seven days now verse 31 explains the process of cooking and eating uh the flesh of inauguration ram part of it was offered on the altar and part of it was eaten by kohanim you shall take the inauguration ram and cook its flesh in a holy place around his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket before the tent the entrance of the tent of meaning now we go to verse 35 that describes the seventh-day inauguration period do this for aaron and his sons for a seven day period verse 36 a bull sin offering you shall make each day now we're on page 481 for a seven day period shall you bring atonement for the altar and sanctify it the altar shall be holy of holies whatever touches the altar shall be shall become sanctified now in verse 38 we learn about the tamid offering the continual daily offering that was brought in the morning and in afternoon one sheep in the morning and one sheep in afternoon verse 38 this is what you shall offer upon the altar two sheep within the first year every day continually one ship in the morning and second sheep in the afternoon and one tenth of a fire which is a measure of flour fine flour mixed with a quarter hen which is another measure hint of beaten oil and a libation libation means pouring wine on the altar of a quarter hen of wine for each sheep verse 42 as a continual elevation offering of for your generations which means this tamid was brought every day weekdays shabbat holidays forever two lambs and now once everything is completed i shall set where in verse 43 i shall set my meeting there with the children of israel and it shall be sanctified with my glory i shall sanctify the tenth of meeting and the altar and aron and his sons verse 45 i shall rest my presence among the children of israel and i shall be their god through the betamigdash the mishkan and the service in it divine presence the shechina rests on the jewish people they shall know that i am hashem their god who took them out of the land of egypt to rest my presence among them i am hashem their god how do we know that god is with us when we have at the temple we see divine presence how do we see it says that there was a cloud resting above the holy of holies now we are on page 483 and here we learn about the second altar the first altar we learned about last week the elevation it's called the elevation altar which was made for wood covered with copper and inside was earth now we learn about the incense altar which is called verse 1 chapter 30 you shall make an altar on which to bring incense up in smoke of acacia wood shall you make it and its length is one cubit and with is one cubit and its height is two two cubits each qubit is a foot and a half from its shell is hornsby just like like the large copper alter this golden altar also has uh four horn-like formations on the corners you shall cover it with pure gold its roof and its walls all around and its horns and you shall make for it a golden crown and it also had two rings and in these two rings verse 5 says you shall make the staves the poles of acacia wood and cover them with gold and place the altar before the partition before the parochiat that is by the arc of the testimonial tablets verse 7 describes what is done with this altar upon it shall aharon bring the spice incense up in smoke every morning when he cleans the lamps he shall bring it up in smoke so every morning there is a ketoart burning on the mizbaya and verse 8 says when aharon kindles the lamps in the afternoon he shall bring it up in smoke so every morning and every afternoon uh uh kohen would would burn keto it on the golden altar this alter is only for incense for ketot we're not allowed to burn on it any sacrificial parts of animals verse 10 describes the yom kippur service that is done on this altar aharon shall bring atonement up upon its horns once a year from the blood of the sin offering of the atonements once a year shall he bring atonement upon it for your generations it is holy of holies for to hashem this concludes parsha tetzave thank you for listening and may we all stay healthy and celebrate putin with our friends and family safely everyone should stay healthy after putin as well the entire jewish nation should rejoice and may we see mashiach soon and may we rebuild the betamigdash and serve hashem together in yerushalayim thank you for listening all the best purim and shabbat shalom [Music] you
