בס"ד

Long ago, the people of Israel built a special tent for G-d.
This tent is called the Tabernacle (Mishkan).

The best craftsmen made all the parts.
But then there was a problem.
The tent was very heavy.
No one could lift it up.

So they brought everything to Mozes.

Moses asked G-d,
“How can I put this tent up?”

G-d said,
“Show yourself as if you are lifting it.
Then I will make it stand.”

Moses put his hands on the tent.
And then something amazing happened.
The tent stood up by itself!

Dit leert ons iets belangrijks.

G-d does not expect us to do the impossible.
He wants us to do our best.

When we do what we can,
G-d helps with the rest.

We can also make a small “home” for G-d.
Not with wood or gold,
but in our hearts.

How do we do that?

By doing good things.
By being honest.
By being kind to other people.

These are part of the Zeven Noachide Wetten.

When people follow these rules,
the world becomes a better place.

And together we help
bring G-d’s light into the world..
