Description

In this shiur for Vayakhel/Pekudei we will learn about the faith of Chur the grandfather of Betzalel, who was prepared to sacrifice his life for the slim possibility of preventing the Egel. Chur is inspired by the the faith of Miriam, his Mother. According to Targum Yonasan it was Miriam who inspired the ladies of Israel to spin the wool on the backs of live goats! And this to guarantee the purity of the threads of wool for the creation of the יריעות of the Mishkan. We will see how Miriam time & again is the bastion of faith & optimism against all odds. Moshe Rabenu himself is inspired by the example of Miriam. It is the עושי המלאכה who build the Mishkan who teach the central concept of נשיאות הלב which must inspire each & every Jew לעולם.
