A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
Monday night through Wednesday is Rosh Chodesh, the beginning of the interpolated 13th "leap" month of Adar A (which precedes the 12th month of Adar B!) in a "pregnant" year ("Shana M'uberet" - see articles 1-2).
The name of this week's reading, "Terumah," refers to the donations of materials for building the Sanctuary (see articles 5-6). Today the word is used, like "tzedaka," to refer to all giving to worthy causes. |
