Are You In A Battle?
Dear friend, Right now the weight may feel crushing, the nights too long, and the questions too loud. You might wonder if God has forgotten the promises He once whispered to your heart.

What’s it mean?
Parashat Terumah (Exodus 25:1–27:19) details God’s instructions to Moses for building the Mishkan, the portable Tabernacle, as a sacred space where divine presence could dwell among the Israelites. It begins with a call for voluntary contributions—”terumah“—from each person “whose heart moves him,” gathering precious materials like gold, silver, fine fabrics, and stones to create this holy dwelling. The detailed blueprints…

And then — almost abruptly — the scene shifts to a conversation about paying the temple tax. It…
Mishpatim – Prophets
There’s something deeply human about the story in 2 Kings 12:1–17. In this passage, we meet Jehoash (also called Joash), a king who began his reign as a child and “did what was right in the eyes of the Lord” — but the text adds a telling detail: he did so as long as Jehoiada instructed him. That small phrase…
Torah Portion – Mishpatim
There’s something about Mishpatim that feels almost startlingly modern. In Mishpatim (Exodus 21–24), given right after the thunder and fire of Sinai, Torah shifts from grand revelation to nitty-gritty human responsibility. Suddenly it’s not just “Don’t murder” — it’s “What happens if your ox gores someone?” Not just lofty ideals, but how to treat workers, how to handle damages, how…
