The korbanot again, this time from a priestly perspective; indoor and outdoor fires, the two meanings of "always", and the ten miracles of the Temple...
There are two ways to deal with our inner demons and dysfunctions. The first, and most natural, would be to fight back. The second approach works by first generating a passion: a passion for G‑d and for spiritual development.
Imagine the ruckus that would ensue if the President of the United States were spotted taking out the White House garbage! Yet something similar occurred daily in the Holy Temple...
In this weeks Torah portion G-d commands: “A continuous fire shall burn upon the altar; it shall not go out”. If it should never go out, then obviously it is continuous, an apparent redundancy?
