Parashat Tzav (Command)
This section describes a special type of fire that was present in
the tabernacle. This fire must burn at all times, and may not be
extinguished.
In fact these are the first words of the parasha.
Immediately after that, the Torah tells us that the priest had to
clean the ashes (dirt) that were left in the altar.
We can learn a beautiful lesson from this. If we want to keep the
fire burning all the time, we need to make holy even the most mundane
activities. If we can find G-d even when we take out the trash, we always be
able to keep the fire burning.
