How do we build a heavenly footstool for God on earth?  Last Shabbat, we explored the foundations of justice—the courts and ethical systems that God commands us to establish so that He can dwell among us.  Justice creates the conditions for God’s presence in society.

This Shabbat, we take the next step.  We turn our attention to the sanctuary itself: how do we create a space—physical, communal, and spiritual—that can hold God’s glory?  What are the structures, intentions, and behaviors that invite God to feel “at home” among us?

We will reflect on the mechanisms of holiness—how human action, care, and responsibility transform ordinary spaces into sacred ones, and how we make God truly welcome in our midst.
