Maimonides’ visit to the Temple Mount, 840 years ago, gives us special insights into the laws he relates in today’s lesson. Exactly who is commanded to participate in the Temple construction? And who is exempt? The concept of the secret spiritual power of children. On what days should construction take place, and during which hours? Requirements for the building of the altar, its stones and the ground upon which it sits.
