  1. The Mishkan and the Nazir (audio)

    Prof. Jonathan Grossman | 17 minutes

    This shiur explores the role of the mishkan in the journey of the people and looks at how Naso presents a new perspective on the dedication of the Tabernacle. Instead of involving only the Kohanim and Leviim, the laws in Naso demonstrate that the individual's spiritual world is strongly connected to the mishkan.
