Parashas
Tzav is the 25th Parashas in the torah cycle, this word Tzav
mean to command. These chapters teaches us how to perform the Principles and
Rituals described in Vayikra the previous 6 chapters.
Usually when something of spiritual significant happens
on a particular day, it is celebrate on that date every year. The Torah Portion
illustrate that the first Sabbath HaGadol, the first revelation of Light,
occurred on the 10 of Nissan “Abib,” on a Sabbath, and this revelation of Light
occurs again each year on the Sabbath preceding Passover, irrespective on
whether the 10th fall on the Sabbath or not.
Sabbath Tzav is the only Sabbath in the entire Torah
Cycle that merits the name Sabbath HaGadol, the Great Sabbath all by its self.
There are various explanation for the prominence of this Sabbath.
It is called the Great Sabbath because all the Light revealed on the other Sabbath
culminate on this Sabbath, the Sabbath before we Passove to the next day of Creation.
As the redemption from Egypt commence on the month of
Nissan “Abib” and some believe that the Final Correction will also occur on
this month.
In this Torah Portion we learn the value of spiritual
growth. The hallmark of true spiritual work come when the student complete
their spiritual goal and make themselves ready for the next assignment. If we
choose to remain at one spiritual revelation, no other spiritual revelation
will be made available to us. If we refused to
advance from the first day of Creation, we will never experience the
second day.
When the three Disciples were on the Mt. of Transfiguration with Messiyah and they saw Him Transfigure with Moses and Elijah,
they taught that was the high of their spiritual development, they wanted to build
three Tabernacle, Messiyah Yahushua said this is only the beginning of what you
will see, there was a lot greater things to come.
In this Torah Portion we learn a precious lesson, that
any great revelation is preceded by a time of Great sacrifice; hopelessness
comes before a time of great elevation, The Sabbath of Tzav marks the end of
the spiritual year and the beginning of the next. The Sacrifice one made in the
last Torah Cycle will manifest in the fruit of the Spirit for the next Day of
Creation.
The first two chapter in Tzav discuss the offerings that
have already been mentioned in previous chapter, such as: Olah offering
(elevated offering), Minchah (meal offering), Shelamim (peace offering), Chatas
(sin offering), and Asham (guilt
offering).
The Torah and its principles are written to those who
wishes to become apart of the Kingdom
of Heavens. The Torah
speaks to Aaron and his four sons, the Mighty Hand of EL YAHVEH, the Five Fold
Ministry on how they are to impart or to teach the people the laws require to sanctify them on their journey to perfection, which is one of the key
requirements of the Kingdom.
Verse 1 – 6 continue to reveal to us the principle upon
which the Kingdom is establish. The following verse deal with the handling of the
ash and and the fire from the Altars. The Tabernacle of the day require the
removal of the previous day’s ash from the Altar.
In, addition, there was a general commandment to keep the
Altar burning at all time.
