"Then Moses said to the people, “Commemorate this day, the day you came out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery, because the Lord brought you out of it with a mighty hand. Eat nothing containing yeast."

Exodus 13:3

Hi friend,

This coming Shabbat's Torah portion, read on Saturday, March 29th, is Parashat Pekudei. This portion, Pekudei, describes the manufacture of the vestments of the priests and high priests — which were already described in the portion of Tetzaveh, where G‑d instructs Moses how these garments are to be assembled. The Tabernacle is erected, and G‑d’s presence dwells therein.

Celebrate Moriah and Yehuda’s upcoming wedding! Gidon's daughter is marrying an IDF Special Forces officer on April 7, 2025. If you’ll be in Israel, please contact Gidon to join the celebration. Gifts are welcome - Learn more below!

Please enjoy this teaching of our beloved Root Source teacher, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz of blessed memory, about last week's Torah portion, Vayak'hel, and share your thoughts with us!

Last week, our popular Root Source teacher Rabbi Gedalia Meyer talked about Vayak'hel. Watch it below.

The high priest‘s ephod — a reversed apron which covered the back — and its precious-stone-studded shoulder straps were made. The High Priest’s Choshen Mishpat (“Breastplate of Judgment”) was assembled. It contained four rows of precious stones, each row containing three stones. Artisans engraved the names of the Twelve Tribes of Israel upon these twelve stones. The Choshen Misphat was then secured by straps which connected it to the ephod.

Gidon's daughter Moriah is getting married! We are so excited!

Her fiance, Yehuda, is an officer in the IDF Special Forces (Maglan unit).

The wedding will take place on Monday evening, April 7, 2025, in Israel.

If you will be in Israel then, please contact Gidon, I hope we will be able to host you at the party!

And if you would like to give a gift to the new couple, we will gladly pass it over to them:-)

This gift is not tax-deductible.

With your help, Root Source will translate, edit, and publish Rabbi Dermer's autobiography, for all the world to know.

Supporters of this campaign will be listed in the book.

Please help us reach this important goal, so we can present Rabbi Dermer of a copy of this book later this year on his 95th birthday!

"My heart is forever changed after reading the list. I too am still processing it and trying to evalute what i should do with the information. My heart is broken! How to accept that we have been deceived by such hatred! Blessings & thanks for sharing with us."
