Hashem appoints Betzalel – who is the ripe old age of 13! - & Oholiav as master craftsmen for building the Mishkan & its vessels. Bnei Yisrael contribute so much that Moshe refuses donations! Special curtains serve as the material for the Mishkan's roof & door. Gold-covered boards set in silver bases form the walls of the Mishkan.
Betzalel makes the Aron Hakodesh which contained the Tablets from wood, covered with gold inside & out. On the ark's cover were two small figures facing each other, wings arching over the ark. The Menora & shulchan with the show-breads were also made of gold. Two altars, for incense & offerings were made.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.
Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.
