As I read through this Parashas

On this Sabbath of Tetzaveh, two Torah portion are read: Tetzaveh which means “you will command” and Ki Tetze “when you take”. Tetzaveh is ABBA YAHWEH ongoing description on building the physical and spiritual Tabernacle. While Ki Tetze is called the Zachor, which means to remember.

This portion is the 20^th and the 21^st portion in the Torah Cycle, it is always read on the Sabbath before Purim unless it is a leap year. The story of Purim describe Haman, the Prime minister of King Achashverosh of Persia, casts lots to establish the best way to wipe out the Yisraelites. Haman is the code word for negativity in our lives.

On this Sabbath of Tetzaveh, ABBA YAHWEH is asking Moses which is a form of Messiyah Yahushua to come and help us choose the consciousness of Purim, the victory over the children of darkness of the Amalek.

On the Sabbath of Tetzaveh the Holy Spirit will help to guide us between the consciousness of Purim and Amalek. The spirit of Purim is the removal of uncertainty from our lives, and Amalek is the code word for doubting.

Will we allow the certainty of Messiyah Yahushua to bring more light or will we allow the negative spirit of Amalek to bring more darkness in our lives. These are the choices available to us on this Sabbath as we prepare for Purim.

This is why, when we read the additional portion of Zachor at the end of this Torah reading of Tetzaveh, we receive special assistance from the Holy Spirit in these arrears of our lives.

This is the only Shabbat of the Torah Cycle when Moses a type of Messiyah comes with a gift to help us overcome the flesh, whether we earn it or not. Messiyah gives us the ability to allow us to replace the darkness of doubt with the clarity of faith.

Tetzaveh is the only Torah Portion that does not mention Moses by name. Some people believe that this was in response to Moses request when he said “If you do not forgive them, I will have no part of Your plans.” You can even erase me from YOUR Book, and in response to this challenge, the CREATOR had to erase Moses from one of the Torah Portion, and Tetzaveh is that Book.

On the Sabbath of Tetzaveh, the spirit of Moses, which is Messiyah Yahushua, opens up the gates so we can experience ultimate fulfillment. He also shows us the two things we must do to connect to this unending fulfillment during the rest of the Torah Cycle. We as believers or children of Light, we must awaken our desire to accept greater responsibility, and we must make any sacrifice necessary to lived up to the responsibility.

This Torah portion deals almost exclusively with the Kohanim, the Priest: Their selection, their vestments, and the inauguration service by means of which they and their offspring would become confirmed for all time as the special ministers of EL YAHWEH.

Having completed the commandments regarding the actual construction of the Tabernacle, the process by which perfection is attained; the Torah now turns to those who will perform the service at the different Altars, the Mighty Hand of YAHWEH, the Five Fold Ministry. It begins by teaching that the oil for the Menorah (Holy Spirit) must be absolutely pure. Without any mixture of a foreign substances or even olive sediments.

This requirement of absolute purity is a fitting prelude to the selection of Aaron and his sons as Kohanim, the Mighty Hand of Yahweh, for they too, must remain pure and separate from the rest of the nation, in the sense that they may not permit unauthorized people to take part in the service.
