Title: Shabbat, Before and After ~Finding inner-piece
"Moses called the whole community of the children of Israel to assemble, and he said to them....Six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have sanctity, a day of complete rest to the Lord " -Exodus 38:1-2
Moses commanded the Jewish people after he commands them to build the Tabernacle, and then again just before they build the Tabernacle. Why?
G-d began creating the world on the first day of the week, Sunday. However, before G-d started creating Sunday, there was a Primordial Shabbat. After G-d created the world in six days, G-d rested, and the=at was Shabbat, the seventh day of the week.
So, there are two different Shabbatoit, one BEFORE the six weekdays, and one AFTER the six days of the week. What are these two Shabbatoit about?
Then, there is a THIRD Shabbat! What is that Shabbat about?
Ultimately, Shabbat is the gift of pleasure, which comes from true inner-peace. How does one achieve this?
Why does Judaism choose monarchy as its form of government?
