A sermon given by Rabbi Marcus Rubenstein at Temple of Aaron during Shabbat morning services on March 11th 2023 on parshat Ki Tisa.
After a couple portions that might be called "setup," for the upcoming construction of the mishkan, or tabernacle, this week parsha Ki Tisa (Exodus/Shemot 30:111 through chapter 34) returns to the story of what happens while, and after Moshe returns from his first trip up Mount Sinai. And it's not pretty. In fact, it is perhaps one of the most painful and tragic stories in the whole Book. All the more so because it keeps repeating. But, again, it's the 'What?' AND the 'WHY' that are key to our understanding. The Erev Shabbat overview of the whole parsha : https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/SSM-3-10-23-Ki-Tisa-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 The Sabbath day teaching this week certainly has to address what Mark suggests is one of THE most succinct stories out there to address the question, "what is Torah-obedience?" Even if part of the story has undeniably 'negative connotations.' The 'golden calf' is probably the most well-known example in the entire Bible of what has become a synonym for idolatry. And the irony is that its fame is well-deserved as well, because it is so PERSISTENT. Which is the problem. Because virtually everything about the story fits as well now as it ever has.

Each one who is numbered in the census shall give this: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuaryExodus 30:15,16 the rich is not to give more or the poor less than the half-shekel when giving Adonai's offering to atone for your lives. You are to take the atonement money from the people of Israel and use it for the service in the tent of meeting, so that it will be a reminder of the people of Israel before Adonai to atone for your lives.”Proverbs 10:2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but righteousness צדקה delivers from deathActs 3:13-15 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Yeshua, whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him. But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.

Torah Portion – Ki Tisa: Exodus 30:11–34:35 - The Sabbath and The Golden Calf by Shawn Ozbun
Join us for our Shabbat Service with Bill Cloud! This weeks Torah Portion is called, Ki Tisa, which means “to lift up, raise or exalt.” Here it's translated as “take a census” in regards to “ransom”. “So that there may be no plague” is believed to refer to “slaughter in battle”. So, the census was indirectly connected to a soldier in battle. The shekel given was a means of support for the Sanctuary, not just monetarily but also for its purpose in being willing to fight for the Kingdom of Heaven. The goal of this is to elevate Gods will and purpose. However, we have to be careful not to allow our own selves and agendas to rise up, especially if it conflicts with His. We will all inevitably rise up and serve either the Father or the adversary. The children of Israel go from being willing to do what the Lord had commanded them to do, to growing impatient waiting on Moses to come down from Sinai. They rebelled by building a golden calf to worship and thus, were chastised. The Father is seeking wheat among the tares and those willing to carry out His will, not those who grow impatient and take matters into their own hands. Moses is a picture of Messiah who many, because the bridegroom delays His coming, will “forget” and begin to mingle holy and profane. In the parable of the judge who didn't fear nor regard the Father, we see the widow continually coming before him demanding justice. In the end due to her persistence, the judge avenges her request. If the unjust judge will avenge the woman, will not the Righteous Judge avenge His own? Even if it's not in our own “timing” the Word says, “He bears long with them.” When He does return will He find us contending for His kingdom, doing our duty or around a golden calf? We must be committed to His cause and continue to lift up our heads to Him.If you are enjoying this podcast, PLEASE consider sending in an offering, tithe, or donation to help us continue spread the gospel free from Jacob's Tent.

Rabbi Amy Bernstein's weekly Torah study class in person and via Zoom - Exodus/Shemot 31:18 -March 10, 2023
There are some things in life that you can live with just having half: half a sandwich, half a cup of coffee, half a sheet of paper, half off the retail price, etc. But there are other things that just don't work when you only have half: Half a water bottle. Half a bag. Half a shoe. Half a brain. Even worse than these is Half a Person. But yet there are millions of them, if not billions of them, walking around every day. It's a sad commentary on our world today. But how does this relate to our current Torah portion and our responsibility to do something about this problem? Let's take a look together in this week's 5 Minute Torah.

Parshas Ki Tisa, wash it away This week's Parsha Perspective is in honor of the immediate and speedy recovery of Daniel Aaron Moshe Ben Ruth. May he and all those who need a Refuah Shlema experience G-d's mercy and compassion swiftly! This week's Parsha Perspective is in loving memory of Leah Mintche Bas Ya'akov Yosef, Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. May their souls be uplifted and their memories a blessing. Click here to listen, watch and connect! ParshaPerspective.com Moshe was then given a few laws dealing with the everyday service of the Mishkan. Before beginning work each day, all Kohanim had to wash their hands and feet by Kiyor, a large copper water basin. Aaron, his children and every vessel in the Mishkan had to be concentrated with the special anointing oil. This anointing oil was used for generations to anoint all future kings and high priests. We find out why there is seemingly an extra word. We learn why the Cohen washed their hands and feet together
The pasuk says in this week's parasha, Ki Tisa , הודיעני נא את דרכיך ואדעך למען אמצא חן בעיניך – Moshe Rabbenu asked Hashem to show him His ways so that he could know Him better and thereby find favor in His eyes. The goal of every eved Hashem is to find favor in Hashem's eyes and the more we know about Hashem the better we will be able to do His will and thus find more favor in His eyes. The Gemara says, one of the questions Moshe Rabbenu was asking Hashem here is why do we sometimes find a tzaddik suffering and a rasha prospering? The Chovot HaLevavot in the Shaar HaBitachon writes regarding this question, there is no one answer that fits all. Every single tzaddik who ever suffered had a different reason why he needed that suffering. And every rasha who ever prospered had a different reason why he needed to prosper. And therefore, we can never know why any particular person is living the life that he is living. However, there are endless reasons why Hashem would act in this way and the Chovot HaLevavot in perek 3 gives us some of them. One thing he says is eye opening and can definitely give people chizuk to overcome this very difficult part of life. He writes, one of the reasons Hashem would give a rasha tranquility is to test everyone else, to see who is really a faithful servant to Him. If someone sees the rasha prospering and says, “That's not fair,” or, “Good people always finish last, so why bother?” Then he is not a ne'eman . But if someone would say instead, “I know Hashem is the fairest Judge and everyone will get exactly what's coming to them.” And despite the challenge, he rises above it and continues clinging to his service of Hashem, then he will be called a ne'eman and will be rewarded so greatly because of it. And even though, currently, Hashem makes it look like things are not fair, in actuality, they are as fair as can be. The rasha may have done some good deeds that Hashem is rewarding now and the consequences for the bad will come later. And a tzaddik may have done things that require atonement that Hashem is giving him now so he can be ready for the ultimate rewards in the Next World. This is one of the most difficult questions in life to deal with, but as always, Hashem is acting in a way that will give us the greatest opportunity to rise to the highest levels and earn more rewards. When a righteous individual prays day and night for something that he needs so badly, but does not receive what he is asking for, and then he sees someone else who never prays receiving that very same request he has been asking for, it is a major test in his emunah. When a person is honest in business, constantly battling to do what is right to honor Hashem yet he struggles with parnasa , and then he sees someone else who is dishonest making more money than he knows what to do with, that is a big test in emunah. When a girl dresses and acts in the ways of modesty and goes through the dating process the way Hashem wants, and still hasn't found her zivug , yet others who completely ignore the ways of modesty get married with ease, that is a very big test. On this we say וצדיק באמונתו יחיה . To be faithful despite these enormous tests is a very high madrega . These people are the ones who are going to bring Mashiach . They will be rewarded for every moment that they were able to have emunah. Everything is happening the exact way it is supposed to. We only gain by doing right and although it might not appear that way, one day Hashem will show us how fair and righteous He was always acting. For now, it is up to us to remain ne'eman . Shabbat Shalom.

Ki Tisa | Inspiration: Day by Day, by Rav Yitzchak Etshalom The Parashiot of the Mishkan direct us how to construct a dwelling place for Hashem. This ideal is introduced at the outset of the commands as its goal: "They shall fashion a sanctuary for Me, that I may dwell among them" (25:8) - but is also reiterated, with greater clarity, at the conclusion of the core commands, with the directive to offer a "constant Olah", twice daily - which will not only ensure God's presence among the people, but that they will also understand that is the reason that He took them out of Egypt - to dwell among them. We explore the balance between the excitement and inspiration of the original donation with the commitment to daily worship. The shiur is given in loving memory of Steve Lazar z"l. יהי זכרו ברוך Source sheet >>
