Shemini 2022
Shemini/”Eighth”, Leviticus 9:1-11:47, details the official start of the Tabernacle service, having been dedicated for 7 days, on the eighth day it is now turned over to Aaron! For 7 days the Tabernacle has been completed, furnished, and prepared, handled solely by Mosheh. Exodus 40 provides these details, and the exact date - the first day of the first month of the second year. It’s the anniversary of Israel’s deliverance from Egypt! Remember, as we’ve said countless times before, Israel was intended to be the dwelling place, a living Tabernacle! Yet due to their actions, this physical tent will now be what houses the Presence. Nevertheless, this physical Tabernacle becomes a mirror reflecting and pointing towards the condition of the people of Israel!
