Parshas T'tzaveh. What's the first thing it talks about?

Leichter preparation the week where the torah talks about lighting neiros.

Not stam.

Ok I know it's not talking about Shabbos licht
The medrash does connect it to Shabbos licht. I can' remember exactly how.

The Baal Haturim says: "Ve'atah tetzaveh" is gimatria "Noshim tzaveh", to hint at the mitzva of women kindling the Shabbos lecht.

Shabbat Shalom,

Right. But "Isha" is gematria "Dvash" (i.e. your own wife is your "honey").

Hi Chevra,

I just wanted to check in and say Hi. BH things are going well. Although things are not awesome and I have fallen a few times over the past few months, I am 1000 times better now than I was before I joined GYE. I recently had a very open talk with my safe friend and I feel that I am moving forward.

My life is sooo much better than it was before. I actually have a life, as apposed to the existence I had before. I lived for porn and lust and took breaks to to eat, daven, (sometimes learn), and check in with my family, but lust was my life. Although I've fallen and I am far from perfect I have regained a significant measure of control and (only) with Hashem's help have been accomplishing more than I ever have been over the past year and a half.

May you all have an uplifting Purim and may we be zoiche to go from geula to geula.

Much love,

Eli

Hi,
Nice to hear from you. Most people clean for Pesach. I have to clean myself for Purim. May we always enjoy the purity of cleanlines!
