Tetzaveh

Tetzave


The Torah tells us tales of brothers,

a saga of learning to love the other,

Who is above, and who below,

even with twins, it’s hard to know.


From Hevel and Kayin, to Moshe and Aaron,

will it be murder, or might it be caring?

One to be master, or leadership shared?

one who’s secure, and one who is scared?


But in the end two brothers meet,

and with expressions of affection greet,

Joint shepherds of a bleating nation,

a fitting tikkun for confrontation.


For amid the vestments and the oil,

craftsmen’s work and weavers’ toil,

A place for God is made below,

where brothers love to each bestow.
