Parashat Va'yakhel-Pekudei 5786 | Why is Shabbat Equal to the Entire Torah?

Shabbat is the spiritual axis of Torah — a weekly encounter with trust, renewal, and Divine presence. By sanctifying time and releasing our illusion of control, we rediscover that life is sustained not by human effort, but by the will of the Creator. The Torah portions of Va'yahkel and Pekudei ( Exodus 35 : 1 - 40 : 38 ) are read on Shabbat, 25 Adar 5786 (Parashat HaChodesh) - March 14, 2026 Original music composed and performed by David Schommer and Dave Eggar Lovingly Recorded in Ora Studios, Jerusalem Israel _________ Rabbi Chaim Richman Jerusalem Lights | Torah for Everyone Rabbi Chaim Richman's 'Jerusalem Lights', a non-profit educational organization, shares the wisdom of Torah teachings with all sincere spiritual seekers, emphasizing the ennoblement of the human spirit, the brotherhood of mankind, and the nurturing and development of each individual’s personal faith and relationship with the Creator.
