Pekudei: Constructing the Tabernacle, continued
Exodus 38:21–40:38
The eleventh and final section of the Book of Exodus opens by informing us whom Moses appointed (Pekudei, in Hebrew) over the functioning and transport of the Tabernacle. Having concluded the account of how the artisans fashioned the various components of the Tabernacle, the Torah proceeds to describe how these same artisans fashioned the priestly garments and how the Tabernacle was finally erected.

Daily Quote
The Snake was cursed that it will "eat dust all the days of your life" (Genesis 3:14). But why is it a curse to have one's food everywhere, at all times? Because the fact that our livelihood is not readily available to us, and we are in constant communication with G-d to request our daily bread--that's life's greatest blessing.
–Chassidic master Rabbi Bunem of Peshischa (1767-1827)
