The book of Shemot (Exodus) ends with the portion Pikudei. In this portion, the Shekhinah- the Divine Presence, finally arrives at long last. Why did it take so long?
Portion Vayakhel discusses coming together. This principle has led to community life becoming a firm foundation for the Jewish people. Join Shmuel as he discusses bowling leagues, social capital, and the importance of community.
