- What happens in this week’s Parasha is basically a redefinition of the course of history and the nature of עבודה itself. First of all חז"ל tell us that the most seminal event in Moshe's life—לעיני כל ישראל—ar ea reference to שביר תכל הלוחות> They redefined the world. Throughout the rest of time we are trying to recreate the לוחות. Recreating paradise lost. In terms of human history—גל עדן is a prehistorically event. It is a vision of a meta history. But in terms of history, the שבירת הלוחות is a recreation of those primal elements. That is why it involves so many of the fundamental issues that took place in גל עדן itself.
Language – the power of בצלאל, who had the power to redo the elements of creation itself, through language. אותיות שנבראו בהן שמים וארץ. Clothes. יין – the כפרה of כניסה לפני ולפנים. And in Purim: wine, women, nakedness and song. That is similar to גן עדן as well. And the two כרובים, being the תיקון of the עגל which itself has no male, whereas the כרובים which are somehow the תקון are male and female. ר"ח is a women's holiday because women refused to participate in this nonsense. And so to have השראת השכינה you much have male and female. We saw back in גן עדן that the maleness of אדם is destructive—לא טוב היות האדם לבדו. This is a restoration. And we saw this in Purim where the women take over as well. Here we have the involvement of women in the עשיית המשכן, etc.
We have a description, basically, of the rest of history. All of our lives it a recreation of the משכן. One we have the ביהמ"ק השלישי we have ended the process. We have to achieve what which surrounds the idea of the עגל, and that is the restoration of לוחות ראשונים, of גל עדן, a personal ישועה and every level of תיקון.
