The Jewish Deaf Multimedia (JDMM) announcement says “We usually read Parshas Vayakhel – this week’s parshah – together with next week’s parshah (Parshas Pekudei) in the same week.
“But because we are currently in a leap year, we divide up the two parshahs into two separate weeks. (This is one of seven such instances in the Torah-reading cycle.)
“In this week’s parsha, we find the Jews actually building the Tabernacle. The Tabernacle had a three-part tent-spread that covered the top of the structure.
“The first tent-spread was made of woven sheep’s wool. The second was made of goat hair. The third was made of techash (a now-extinct animal) skins and red-dyed ram skins.
What was the difference between the way the goat hair tent-spread and the sheep’s wool tent-spread were made, and what meaningful lesson can we learn from this difference?”
