We live in a world polluted with conflict, anger, and hatred. While these are not the only features of our reality, they have persevered throughout history and are even present today. It leaves us to wonder:
What would the world look like if it was built on love? What would our lives be like? Could we ever attain that? While such an idea may at first seem surreal and naively idealistic, Hashem actually entrusts us to build such a world, as seen in Parshiyot Acharei Mot-Kedoshim.

It can sometimes feel like we wear two different masks in our lives: one professional and “worldly” and the other Jewish and religious. These characterizations mean different things to us all, but the duality still remains in that life can feel disjointed, as if we play different roles during the day, be it college, a career, or parenting, and during our Jewish and religious living. In Parshiyot Vayakhel-Pekudei, the Torah speaks about Bezalel, an individual who beautifully integrates these seemingly disparate aspects of life into one, holistic model.
