Today's Mitzvot (Day 67 of 339):

Positive Mitzvah 59
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Positive Mitzvah 59: Blowing the trumpets in the Sanctuary

-Numbers 10:10 "Also on the day of your gladness... you shall blow
with your trumpets"

It was Lag Ba'Omer and Benny was at the grand "Torah and Mitzvot"
parade. The band was playing and the floats were passing by. It was
exciting and fun watching the parade march by.

Suddenly, a bugle horn sounded and the blast caused a stir in the
crowd.

The tone was loud and clear and many bystanders leaned forward
trying to catch a glimpse of the horn player.

The sound of a horn blowing calls for attention!

In the Beit HaMikdash while certain sacrifices are offered, we
are commanded to sound trumpets.

The sound arouses a stir in the hearts of all the people who were
present in the Beit HaMikdash.

Each one will concentrate and resolve to strengthen his bond
of closeness with HaShem.

Similarly, we are commanded to blow the shofar in times of need
and despair, calling for HaShem's attention and requesting His help.

PLEASE NOTE: The Daily Mitzvah schedule runs parallel to the daily
study of 3 chapters of Maimonides' 14-volume code. There are
instances when the Mitzvah is repeated a few days consecutively
while the exploration of the same Mitzvah continues in the in-depth
track.

"The Holocaust forces us to grapple with the existence of evil and suffering. It challenges us to find faith and optimism in the face of devastation and despair. And it awes us as we encounter heroes of the spirit who fought for truth and decency in the darkest of times."
