Torah PortionT’rumah (Donations) Sh’mot/Ex. 25:1-27:19

Haftorah Reading: I Kings 5:26-6:23

Our Torah portion this week gives us a detailed list of the donations the people of Israel brought to be used in the building of the Mishkan or Tabernacle. It also tells us, in Exodus 36:5, that Moshe had to eventually tell the people to stop donating. They had given more than was needed.
