In this week’s Torah portion, Tetzaveh (Exodus 27:20-30:10), we focus on priestly ritual items and apparel, along with consecration. With the destruction of the Second Temple, and the discontinuance of the sacrificial system, the Rabbis of the Talmud visualized home tables as representative of the Temple’s altar. It was then that the bread served at mealtime began to take on new meaning as a symbol of and replacement for the sacrifice that was brought in Temple times.
The ner tamid, “eternal light,” which hangs above the ark and the sanctuary and is referenced in our portion, serves as a constant reminder of God’s divine presence.
