Here is a thread from my Covenant & Conversation essay on #Pekudei called "On Jewish Character". You can read it in full here: bit.ly/2HjPr8u & download the accompanying Family Edition here: bit.ly/2IT50WL. #ShabbatShalom 
There is a fascinating feature of the geography of the land of Israel. It contains two seas: the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea. The Sea of Galilee is full of life. The Dead Sea, as its name implies, is not. Yet they are fed by the same river, the Jordan.
The difference is that the Sea of Galilee receives water and gives water. The Dead Sea receives but does not give. To receive but not to give is, in Jewish geography as well as Jewish psychology, simply not life. So it was in the time of Moses. So it is today.
