Shabbos: Ta’am HaChaim Parashas Vayikra 5769



Performing HaShem’s will with our will

Introduction

This week’s parashah discusses the karbanos, sacrifices that the Jewish People were required to bring when the Mishkan and the Bais HaMikdash were in existence.

The Bais HaMikdash, our source of holiness
