Important Update
This morning, on the First Annual International Temple Mount Awareness Day, dozens of Jews and Gentiles gathered together at the foot of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem to ascend in reverence and prayer to the holy site. We were denied access by the police, who essentially caved in to Moslem incitement and violence… exactly the insidious pattern that we seek to change, and that the activities of this day were designed to call attention to. However, the crowd remained undaunted and, in a spirit of Temple renewal and activism, gathered around the newly built Golden Menorah to hear encouraging words of Torah wisdom from Rabbi Yisrael Ariel and Rabbi Chaim Richman. The impromtu ceremony concluded with a sanctification of the New Moon of Nisan, and joyous song. We have created a momentum and we will not stop here.
The Temple Institute acknowledges and thanks all those who have contacted the office of the Prime Minister of Israel to protest the situation on the Temple Mount, and urges everyone to continue this vital action.
Phone, fax and email the Prime Minister of Israel to demand freedom of worship for all on the Temple Mount:

As we begin the book of Leviticus, (Vayikra), the third of the five books of Moses, the Torah gets down to the heart of the matter: The korbanot offerings made in the Tabernacle, (and the Holy Temple). These commandments which are difficult for us to understand and maybe even hard to warm up to, are, nevertheless, an expression of G-d’s will, and a test of our faith in Him, and our desire to perform His will.

For seven days leading up to the dedication of the Tabernacle in the desert, Moshe rabeinu (Moses our master), assembled the Tabernacle and then disassembled it twice each day. As we ourselves prepare for the building of the Holy Temple, what can we learn from Moshe’s daily undertaking?

Why is is that the golden calf, of which we read in this week’s parasha, is symbolic of the impurity of death, while the red heifer, of which we also read in this week’s special Torah reading, is symbolic of of the pure nature of life eternal?

“And they will build Me a sanctuary and I will dwell amongst them.” (Exodus 25:8) “Build it for ME,” G-d says. For My name’s sake. I want to dwell amongst man in this world. Such is My desire. G-d is not asking for perfection from mankind. Only for a welcome into this world.
