Naso

The Dimension of the Divine Opens Forth From the Human Face

By BRENT CHAIM SPODEK

We pray to see God's face, writes Brent Chaim Spodek, a Jewish Theological Seminary rabbinic student, but perhaps the face has already been revealed. When the face of God appears in the faces of others, we have to respond by thinking about ethical issues and the plights of others. Divinity, no matter where it appears, requires a response.

God's Healing Angels

By RABBI BRADLEY SHAVIT ARTSON

The weekly Torah portion preceding Shavuot, parashat Naso, addresses the issue of dealing with individuals with physical disabilities. Rabbi Bradley Shavit Artson provides an insightful commentary. Yesodot ("Foundations") builds Jewish community foundations for people with disabilities by strengthening and empowering them and their families and by developing connections within and without the Jewish community.

Giving and Getting

By RABBI BRADLEY SHAVIT ARTSON

Transparency, accountability, and ensuring honesty can get tiresome when it means poring over ledgers – or reading the Torah portion accounting for material that went into building the Tabernacle. Holy endeavors can have mundane aspects, and the mundane can have holy ones.
