Our Parsha this Shabbos is 'Vayakhel," and refers to Moshe assembling the entire assembly of the Children of Israel to tell them of HaShem's commandments.The word 'Vayakhel,'-'assembled' refers to togetherness as our people are one people one nation with One HaShem - The Creator of all.There are so many different branches of religious Judaism all under one Creator.Yet we are all Jews.The different branches of religious Judaism may sometimes disagree with each other and each branch may feel that they have found the answer that no one else has found yet at the end of the say,all are under HaShem and all our people are special in their own special way.Though we may all have different ways of thinking,we still need to remember that we are Jews and that we need to 'Vayakhel/Assemble' together as one so that we can all serve HaShem together as one as HaShem wants us to.It is time to put our differences aside and remember that HaShem is HaShem of us all and that we ourselves are not better than others,but each of us need to serve our purpose in this world to make this a world where HaShem can settle as it says in Isaiah.When we all stand together as one and bring to an end the in-fighting and remember we are all one people with a common goal to serve HaShem as HaShem should be served,then we can look to bringing on the end of days.The word "Vayakhel," in Hebrew,comes to 151 Gematrically thus 1+5+1=7 ,the value of the word 'Mashiach.' Thus,when we "Vayakhel-Assemble" together as one,we will bring on Mashiach and the Final Redemption.Let us remember what Yaakov told his sons in Bereishit mem tes:aleph (49:1) that all his sons (us) should assemble ourselves together and then Yaakov will tell of the End of Days-so hinting to us that assembling/gathering as one putting aside our differences ,will bring on 'The End of Days.' We see that after this word is used in the beginning of the Parsha,Moshe first tells of the Shabbos,hinting that when we do assemble as one people at the End of Days,the Eternal Shabbos will come in.Then Moshe talks of the construction of the Holy Tabernacle,thus hinting that at the End of Days,the Eternal Shabbos will come in and then,Holiness will permeate the world and HaShem will make a place for Himself I'm this world to dwell among us.But it starts with each one of us,putting our differences aside and remembering to serve HaShem in Unity and to make peace with our fellow Jew and to make peace with our fellow people.With deep love for You HaShem,I wish You a beautiful Shabbos Kodesh and with love to all,may you all have a beautiful Shabbos Kodesh all doing our parts to bring in the Final Redemption.
