Daily Torah series available Sunday-Friday.
After the covenant was sealed and the principal ethical, social, and religious laws were given, the Israelities were requested to donate their material wealth for sacred causes. How can one possible give something materially to G-d, He owns and created everthing? The Torah does not state, and let them give, but states, and let them take. The word portion is mentioned thrice in this passage, alludes to three different truma. The first was the mandatory beka of silver given by each person for making the siver sockets, which were the foundation for the Tabernacle. The second, an identical amount, served for the purchase of the communal sacrifices. The third was used for the construction of the Tabernacle itself.

But G-d’s contract with us is not that of a usurious money-lender, but of a heter iska investor. He extends us the capital and insists on payment in return, but He stresses that this is a partnership, an ongoing involvement. He retains His stake in the capital throughout our use of it, being affected, as we are, by the ups and downs of the market of our lives.

On the cosmic historical level of “Nezikin”, the three gates of Nezikin can be seen as three phases of social development of man. In the “first gate”, we encounter human society acting in abase and barbaric state because the Laws of Institution, whose function is to deal with criminal and violent behavior among its members, are wrapped up in the “will to receive for themselves alone.”
