Parshas Naso

In this Parsha we read about Chanukas HAbais - how Moshe Rabeinu (Moses) had Sanctified The Mishkan and how the heads of the Tribes have brought the first offerings. Very often this act is used to compare with someone entering a new house, for the fact, that when a Jew is settling somewhere he has to make his dwelling "comfortable" for the Shechina - Devine Presence. His house, or an apartment becomes a Mikdosh Mheat - little Bais Hamikdosh.
This first post is like a Chanukas Habais on-line, and I hope that this blog will make difference in many people hearts in order to create a Mikdosh Mheat in many peoples' homes.

On the other hand, the same Parsha starts with a topic of unfaithful wife (Sotah), who is being suspected for unfaithfulness to her husband. The Law states, that if the woman has been accused falsely she will be rewarded by Hashem with giving a birth to a child. The Jewish nation is often compared to Hashem's wife, since the Torah giving at Mt Sinai is compared to a Chuppah (wedding). So it is very symbolic. The nation of Israel have never abandoned its trust and faith in The Almighty G-d, but has been falsely accused of it pretty often by the nations of the world. So very soon we will return home and "give birth" to a great son - Moshiach Tzidkeinu.
