רְאוּ קָרָא ה' בְּשֵׁם בְּצַלְאֵל - What Did HaShem See? - פרשת כי תשא
In this shiur, we examine the divine appointment of Bezalel to construct the Mishkan, emphasizing that his selection was a miraculous act of God rather than a personal choice by Moshe. Despite a background of harsh labor in Egypt, Bezalel was uniquely endowed with wisdom, understanding, and knowledge, the same attributes used by God to establish the heavens and the earth.

וְיִקְחוּ לִי תְּרוּמָה - פרשת תרומה - Take the Money and Fund
Why does it say “וְיִקְחוּ לִי תְּרוּמָה” instead of “וְיִתְּנוּ” (they should GIVE)? Who exactly is supposed to collect the תרומה? Why does the Torah emphasize “מֵאֵת כָּל אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יִדְּבֶנּוּ לִבּוֹ”? How can a human being give anything to God?
