Some Thoughts on the Sidra
BY CHAYA COLMAN
TZAV
"An eternal flame should always be kept burning on the altar; it should never be extinguished."
(Vayikra 6:13)
In the Holy Temple, there was a special chamber where hot coals were kept burning,
so that the fire on the Alter could be relit whenever necessary. The fire on the altar was
where all the sacrifices would be made, and it was from this Pasuk that we learn it
should always remain lit.
When God commanded the Jewish people to build the Mishkan in the desert, He said:
“And I will dwell within them.”
But why does it say “them” instead of “it”?
By saying “them” this verse comes to teach us that every Jewish person is like a miniature
Temple. Every Jew must always have a fiery love for G-d in his heart, just like the fire,
which burns all the time on the altar.
In the Talmud, the Sages further our knowledge of this Mitzvah: “The fire on the altar
was to be kept burning even on Shabbat and even when we are impure”.
In the same way, we Jews should always feel a deep love for God, even if we are on a
level of Shabbat.
But what do we mean by “a level of Shabbat”?
On Shabbat, we wish each other “Shabbat Shalom”. The Hebrew word Shalom comes
from the root of the Hebrew word whole and complete (shaleim). We feel complete on
Shabbat. We relax and we do not worry about our weekday work, acting as if it were
completed.
On Shabbat, we are also given an extra Shabbat soul that helps us pray better, learn
better, and understand God’s holiness better. However a Jew on the level of Shabbat
might get distracted, and might ignore this true feeling within their soul. Therefore God
reminds us of the “eternal flame… even on Shabbat.”
The burning love for God in our hearts should never relax.
