While a republican form of government is considered the best, there are some things that are not up to a vote. Torah Law is one of them.

The priests were commanded to burn the entrails of the sacrifices in the Tabernacle. This was to lead the Jewish people away from the Egyptian culture which used the entrails to divine the future. It was meant to get Egyptian culture out of the Jews.

The lesson on how the priest in the Temple were to be dressed is to remind us that we are the representatives of the Jewish people and therefore of God. How we dress and behave tells the world what we are.

The Torah is detailed oriented about how a priest should dress while serving in the Tabernacle. The question is why. The answer is we behave better when dressed properly.

The family that made the shew bread for use in the Tabernacle kept the recipe a secret. Thus highlighting that the Torah recognizes that intellectual property is property and has to be treated as such.

The budget for the building of the Tabernacle was public. This was so that there would be no overspending in the construction of the Tabernacle. The Torah is against secret budgets and plans. It hold our leaders to a high ethical standard.

God stresses that first we do the commandment no matter how we feel about it. Eventually, we will feel the wisdom of doing the right thing.

The reason that the Torah spends so much time on the construction of the Tabernacle is that it was meant for us, not God. We forget that God does not need the Tabernacle, we do.

A lesson that we can learn from the Super Bowl is that we should not give up on attempting to achieve our goals. When our people were down and it looked like it was over for us, we managed to achieve great things.

God’s command to build a Tabernacle is so that He might dwell within us. God’s plan is that we do His will and thus bring Him into the world.
