Terumah: The Building of a Sanctuary, BCC 343 d Do you want to build a... sanctuary? In this week’s parsha, G-d instructs the Israelites to give him gifts (terumot) to construct a portable sanctuary. G-d becomes the teacher, offering guidance and direction and allowing the Israelites to learn independently. In this service, we will discuss the parsha and how the lessons of what we build strengthen our lives and the lives of those around us. Throwb X
