In Parashat Teruma, we move to the world of the mishkan, from where, apparently, God “dwells amongst Bnei Yisrael”. These concepts can be difficult to comprehend, as is the long and detailed account of the building materials and process, and the differences of opinion by later commentaries about the placement of the Aron (Ark). Is God in the details? What is this for? We seek to understand the spiritual principles which guide the construction of the mishkan.
