Parashat Pekudei “There once was a Tabernacle” Lyrics and Music by Yael Krauz With the help of Rabbi Elizabeth There once was a tabernacle. Not done and not complete. The Jews set out on a journey. And traveled the desert by feet. Copper, bronze, silver, and gold Colors that all look so bold. The people took the story once told. Uniting them with the tabernacle. The tabernacle served as a home. For the priests who proudly wore the stones The 12 tribes joined on their own. To create the tabernacle There once was a tabernacle. Soon to be finished. Just as God instructed. And just what Moses wished. The cloud descended on the tent. And watched as the Israelites came and went. Fire by night and sun by day. God was with them all the way. Moshe wanted to create the throne. So, God could finally take a seat. Everything was perfect now. The tabernacle finally complete. There once was a tabernacle. The work was finally done. We made a space for holiness. A tribute to the One Pekudei / פָּרָשַׁת פְקוּדֵי Hebcal Date Sefaria Torah Reading Exodus 38:21-40:38 Song lyrics & Song music by Rabbi Elizabeth W.

Vayekhel: Marbim- Exceeding the Call Exodus 36:5-6 and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than (מַרְבִּ֥ים) is needed for the tasks entailed in the work that ה' has commanded to be done.” (6) Moses thereupon had this proclamation made throughout the camp: “Let no man or woman make further effort toward gifts for the sanctuary!” So the people stopped bringing: Exceeding the Call Marbin Lyrics: Vayekhel Yisrael Vayehel Yisrael Moses put out the sacred call And then came them all Marbim Eesh V’Eesha Nediv Nediva Marbim More than enough We have too much Marbim Thanks be to All You heeded the call Marbim As art meets the eye We’ll beautify Marbim Vayakhel Hebcal Date Sefaria Torah Reading Exodus 35:1-38:20 Song lyrics & Song music by Rabbi Elizabeth W.
