Description

...Naturally, acacia trees were not the only component needed to construct a dwelling appropriate to house God. Such a dwelling demanded gold, silver, copper, dyed fabrics, and animal hides. But these were readily available...But the acacia trees? Yaakov did not bring those trees simply to bolster the spirits of his children and their children... When it came time to build the Mishkan the trees had to be there, and they had to be there because of him. And they were. Why? Because he had planned! Yaakov, like so many zaydes before and after him, was thinking of his grandchildren and his great-grandchildren long before they existed.
