Parshas Tzav–Shabbos HaGadol (5778)

8:2,6  and the Rashis:  The pasuk instructs Moshe to verbally bring Aharon and sons to him and draw them close.  When instructing Klal Yisroel it says–bring them to the Ohel Moed.  And again pasuk 6 it speaks of Moshe drawing them close to him.  As we know, the Shchinah was resting upon Moshe and was there together with Moshe and Moshe was drawing them close to Hashem.

 

Every day in Nissan are days for closeness to Hashem for us and to relate to the great nissim of Yetzias Mitzrayim.

 

Have wonderful, meaningful, great Shabbos HaGadol.

Parshas Tzav—Shabbos HaGadol (5766)

By Mordechai Dolinsky

 

The Medrash in our sedra (17) quotes the Chazal that for the sin of lashon harah there is not atonement.  The Torah however comes through with a source of forgiveness—the clanging sound of the bells on the “me-il” of the Kohain.  For the absolute devastation and damage of lashon hara there is no “kappara”.  With the subtle sound of the bells on the garment of the Kohain the Torah creates a kappara.  The Kohain has no control—involuntary sounds from his movement.  Perhaps the anguish of not being in control of the sound brings the kappara.  The powerful message is the awesome seriousness of lashon hara.

 

Every Shabbos is a reinforcement of emuna; this Shabbos we receive the strength for the seder, the epitome of the source of emuna.  Perhaps this is an explanation for the name Shabbos HaGadol.

 

Have a wonderful Shabbos.
