רֶגַע שֶׁל עִבְרִית A Moment of Hebrew
וַיְהִי מְאַת כִּכַּר הַכֶּסֶף לָצֶקֶת אֵת אַדְנֵי הַקֹּדֶשׁ וְאֵת אַדְנֵי הַפָּרֹכֶת מְאַת אֲדָנִים לִמְאַת הַכִּכָּר כִּכָּר לָאָדֶן׃
The 100 talents of silver were for casting the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets for the curtain, 100 sockets to the 100 talents, one talent per socket.
אֶדֶן eden (שֹׁרֶשׁ א.ד.נ)
- Base or foundation
אֶדֶן הַחַלּוֹן (eden ha-hallon) = Window sill
אֲדָנִית (adanit) = Window box (for flowers)
אֶדֶן מְסִלָּה (eden mesillah) = Railroad tie
Find the Word!
This שֹׁרֶשׁ (shoresh, root) is all over the place in this week’s and last week’s parashiyot! Why do you think that is? How many times can you find the shoresh in the parashah?
