T’tzaveh (Exodus 27:20−30:10) – Shabbat Purim
This Week’s Torah Portion: T’tzaveh – תְּצַוֶּה Exodus 27:20−30:10) – Shabbat Purim
Purim story seems simple, there is a king, stupid and drunk, a beautiful queen, Esther, her wise uncle, Mordechai the Jew, and a wicked man who wants to kill all Jews (Haman). We win, and now let’s go drink (Alcohol) and eat Hamantaschen (literally Haman’s hat).
Purim has one great lesson in it! What we do matters. No miracles are mentioned in the story, God does not appear even once in the story. It is all up to how we behave, kind of what is happening in real life, actions matter.
