EACH WEEK, WE JOIN THE JEWISH WORLD in reading the Torah (Gen.– Deut.) portion. The readings are divided in such a way that the en- tire Torah is read in a year. Jesus (Yeshua) and the disciples were well versed in the Torah and quoted from it frequently. I am not sure how you can understand the Writings of the Apostles (NT) without a firm foundation in the Torah and the rest of the Tanakh (OT). One of the Torah portions is called Terumah, and it is found in Exodus 25–27. The name Terumah means contributions, gifts or offerings. This portion begins a section of Scripture in which God gives detailed directions to build a Tabernacle together with its furnishings.
