The Ghost Month of Adar I: Double Your Pleasure, Double Your Fun
Parashat Terumah and the Temple Institute: Bringing the Holy Temple Down to Earth
As the month of Shevat draws to a close, we prepare to welcome the month of Adar, that especially auspicious, ‘lucky’ month. But this year there are two Adars! Are we twice as lucky? This year features the ‘extra’ month of Adar I, an usual phenomena of time on the Hebrew leap year calendar that’s hard to pin down. In this week’s edition of Temple Talk, Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman re-define this month as a special, Divinely-appointed opportunity to pack in some ‘extra’ fixing and refinement. Since refinement and re-definition is on our national agenda, what better time to begin reading the Torah portions that deal with the establishment of the Tabernacle and its vessels, the precursor of the Holy Temple and its service. This week we read the portion of Terumah, and from this point on, the Tabernacle/Temple will be the central theme of our Torah readings. But just how seriously do we regard the Torah’s instructions to “Build for Me a Sanctuary, that I will Dwell Among You” (Ex. 25:8)? Our hosts refine and re-define, delving the depths of the meaning of this commandment in a special focus on the work of the Temple Institute in preparing for the resumption of the Divine service in our time.

This week features:
Bizarro World of the Temple Mount
New Twist: Not All Fruit are Created Equal! No Jewish Fruit on the Temple Mount!
As we read parashat Mishpatim this week, the nation of Israel is still standing at the foot of Mount Sinai, following the transcendent experience of receiving the Torah. What could be the follow-up to the heavens opening up and the sublime level of prophecy attained by every single person? Can you top this? Yes, we can… by taking that experience and turning it into the stuff of every day life… responsible human behavior steeped in Divine light. The Torah has a program, and a goal: to make this world into a place for the Divine Presence, on every level – for the individual and for society at large. The epicenter of the Divine Presence, of course, is the Temple Mount. The Jewish people and the righteous of the nations are visiting the Temple Mount in greater numbers and demanding the right to pray there. But in this week’s edition of Temple Talk, Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman explain that a visit to the Temple Mount can be like wandering into the Twilight Zone… where undemocratic and illegal police policy and zany Waqf antics now employ new methods of discrimination… including sexual harassment and a brand-new form of anti-Antisemitism: Discrimination against Tu B’Shvat fruit! Apples and oranges may be allowed on the Temple Mount, but Jews were forbidden from bringing figs and dates to the holy site on the New Year of Trees… who knew that fruit could be a forbidden expression of Jewish identity? Plus: In a bold new move of desperation, the Waqf once again completely re-writes history! Exclusive details on Temple Talk!

Who was Moshe, the “man of G-d?” Agitator for justice, freedom fighter, radical activist who led his people out of Egypt, Moshe is called to the mountain to “ascend to G-d.” He attained a level of G-d awareness unattained by any other before or since, and at Sinai elevated the entire nation with him.
