Parashat Tetzaveh – Opening Questions

  • What is the meaning of the words "וְנִשְׁמַע קוֹלוֹ... וְלֹא יָמוּת" which appear at the end of the section on the priestly robe and its bells?
  • How does the copper altar relate to the earthen altar commanded in Shemot 20?
  • What is the relationship between the "חֹשֶׁן" and the "אוּרִים וְהַתֻּמִּים"?
  • Were the Priests and Levites chosen at the same time? Was this before or after the Sin of the Golden Calf?
  • Why does the command to build the incense alter come after the discussion of priestly clothing and not together with the other vessels?
