Tetzaveh

בס״ד 

Tetzave

In Terumah we learned of the Mikdash,

And almost all the kelim,

So now we prepare for the Avodas HaKodesh,

And for that we need Kohanim.

Each Kohen must wear a Ketonet,

Michnasayim, Mitznefet, Avnet,

But Aaron HaKohen must wear four more,

And that makes a total of eight.

Ephod, Choshen, Me’il, and Tzitz,

They must have been heavy to wear,

And also hot in the summer for sure,

Unless stored in a Frigidaire.

The Mizbeach for burning Ketores,

Again is from Atzei Shitim,

Kelim and Kohanium must both have pure hearts,

To serve in the Tent of Meet-in’.

And after a bath, and with oil anointed,

And donning their garments so fine,

They are now ready to light the Tamid,

When Moshe announces “It’s time”.
