## Resource

In this week's episode Rabbi Kohn discusses the Torah's lesson on how we all must take when approriate. If someone refuses help when he needs it he is showing a sense of cruelty to himself. He also discusses the Ramban on this week's Parsha which connects the revelation at Sinai to the building of the Mishkan(Tabernacle). Another idea which is discussed is the wording the Torah uses when describing the building of the Menorah. Was it built by Moshe and the Jewish craftsmen or did something miraculous happen.
