Terumah | Heave Offering תְּרוּמָה
This week's Torah Portion, Terumah opens with a paradox: the God who owns heaven and earth asks Israel for an offering. Not because He lacks anything—but because He’s forming a people who know how to honor, build, and host His presence. “Let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them” isn’t a line about God needing a house; it’s a line about God shaping a nation into a dwelling place.
Terumah is about ordered generosity and sacred craftsmanship—gold, silver, wood, linen—ordinary materials surrendered and structured into holy space. The lesson is simple and sharp: presence doesn’t rest on hype; it rests on consecration, obedience, and design. This week asks us: what has God placed in your hands that’s meant to become a dwelling for His glory, not just a resource for your comfort?
