In last year\u2019s initial exploration of Terumah<\/a>, I looked at the structure of the narrative about building the Tabernacle and how its construction alludes to and parallels the creation story, setting out the environment from the outside in, then furnishing it from the inside out, as G-d set out the world then filled it with creatures.<\/p>\n

In the creation story, there is no death, and no creature kills another for food. In this cosmos, though, in the Tabernacle, there is not only meat-eating but animal sacrifice, the transactional meeting point between the Israelites and transcendence. I touched on a possible way to understand the meaning of that regular event, suggesting the sacrificial animal substitutes for some human sin, but this meaning has come into sharper focus over the last year.<\/p>\n

But what \u201csin,\u201d specifically? One possibility is, it has something to do with human beings bringing death to all of creation and generating a situation in which all are predators and\/or preyed upon including humans themselves. In a transaction the dimensions of which are not yet clear to me, the sacrifice of an animal takes the human being out of that cycle of prey and predator as long as human beings are \u201cin the image of G-d,\u201d although I\u2019m not yet 100% certain what that means.<\/p>\n

Although many commentaries relate \u201cin the image\u201d to moral capacity, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s a one-to-one correlation. Animals are not \u201cin the image\u201d but rather \u201cafter its kind\u201d \u2014 yet they are morally accountable for taking human life.<\/p>\n

And there are three parts to human ontology, not two, as I once thought was such a neat equation in the text: body \u2014 represented in ritual commandments, and soul \u2014 represented in ethical commandments. Instead we have body (\u05d1\u05b8\u05bc\u05e9\u05b8\u05c2\u0595\u05e8 basar<\/i>, lifeless flesh), body animated by the breath of G-d, \u00a0(\u05e0\u05b6\u05a5\u05e4\u05b6\u05e9\u05c1 nefesh<\/i>, often translated \u201csoul\u201d), and \u201cin the image,\u201d which hints at both and more.<\/p>\n

Since \u201cin the image\u201d would suggest something about a conception of G-d, perhaps the allusive, elusive quality of the text in this regard is purposeful. Perhaps it will never be possible to fully decipher the meaning of \u201cin the image.\u201d<\/p>\n

THE ANIMALS\u2019 STORY IN TERUMAH<\/p>\n

Following are \u00a0two short passages, the only two in Terumah, that refer to animals. The first is about animals\u2019 contribution to the Tabernacle, the skins of a domesticated animal and the skins of a wild animal.<\/p>\n

The second is the passage that startled me last year: \u201c….here is this beautiful structure, created from the finest the Israelites had to offer, a portable home for G-d, a place where these wanderers met with transcendence, and within this structure, the tools of animal sacrifice, flesh-hooks and shovels and pots to take up and carry away the ashes that remained from a living creature. I found myself somewhat against my will dwelling on that phrase, imagining the creature brought, surely unwillingly, to that place, bound, crying with fear, killed, hung and finally burned.\u201d<\/p>\n
