Portion of the Week; Tetzaveh 10-5, Rabbi Schafler

that i get is called all about motivating and a's harshaw i am days although it's <unk> the bible as retin a synagogue with rabbinic commentary this evening where rabbi samuels shopper and spiritual leader of the conservative congregation temple gates of prayer in flushing new york words have lives of their own very much like human beings words are born they grow and they develop and they change they marry and have children words grow old and are shunted aside and then they die the study of the history

and the development of words of language is indeed a most fascinating and enriching experience in the history of ideas and of mans thinking one of the words rich's in cultural history and our civilization is the word messiah a word which expresses a number of bad news and concepts that have been measurably fortified an image of the heart and mind of western man the word messiah is of course simply the english not a translation but trends liberation of the hebrew word mushy on a word which we find used

a number of times in the biblical portion of kids out there that is our subject this week after the instructions after the building of a sanctuary moses' receive his directions concerning the men who want to be called to serve as its functionaries as its greece aaron and his descendents and in grade average animal loving to pay you a call at all and many of his investments which priests ought to hear described and these gorgeous gardens ought to be placed upon aaron and his sons and then we find a following command than thou shall take the unbelievably

loyal and pour it up on his head and i'm going to be in the hebrew word the bible uses for the process of annoying to use of course machine hot the person i'm going to be called mushy on the anointed one and the us in its original and pristine biblical usage the word mushy our messiah simply indicated the consecration of a priest to his holy office oreo being regarded in ancient times as the symbol of elevation and a richness and of a special fitness for office the same ceremony

was later used in the coronation ceremony all the kings of israel and pro this usage on linking machine car became synonymous with b concept of the importing of the divine blessing upon the one who was anointed understandably enough this ceremony is ritual of annoying getting praise and later the king with the consecrated oil soon became in the eyes of the people and in the eyes of the world the key aspect of investing a prison to these significant and high office is the term for one

who was drawing anointed mushy on became a synonym for a kenyan israel chosen by god himself to rule over his chosen people the people of israel this week senior of israel david as we all know so impressed and so stand his remarkable and many faceted gem like personality upon the history of israel but a later generation's saw him as the ideal ruler the ancestral are both physical and spiritual of that great king the mushy are the anointed of god who was yet to bear both for the jewish tradition

and for the christian the messiah is universally called band of lead the son of david from this kernel develop the many branches the a larger goal concept all of the messiah his role his relation to god and his powers but strictly speaking from what we may call a theological an etymological point of view their use of that term with fire in the hebrew bible it leads nowhere connotes the redeemer or supernatural savior it was simply the anointed one in the sense of a chosen king and high praise and bass from this

thimble on at big us origin did that hebrew word of mushy on the anointed one take on the connotations that it has in all a day and has had for centuries in western civilization the connotation of redeemer and a savior a specially selected and chosen of god with all the theological import and religious and philosophical consequences and overtones that we are all familiar with involuntary but truly words have real declines of their own you have been listening to portion of the week the bible as read in the synagogue with rabbinic commentary
