      As we prepare to conclude the book of Exodus this week with the construction of the Tabernacle and the tallying of its parts, Rabbi Richman and Yitzchak Reuven reflect upon the repercussions of the heinous Golden Calf for our generation - for our sages instruct us that this sin is revisited in each generation. Who are the nefarious Mixed Multitude who can still be heard to murmur amongst us "These are your gods, Israel, " about every false and distracting notion, fad, political expediency and change of mind?

      For seven days leading up to the dedication of the Tabernacle in the desert, Moshe rabeinu (Moses our master), assembled the Tabernacle and then disassembled it twice each day.
