What is the Urim and Tummim? - Exploring the Hidden and the Revealed
This week's Torah portion of Tetzaveh (Ex. 27:20) mysteriously omits the name of Moshe, and though his presence is hidden, he is very much on the scene. But what's that all about? In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman explore this theme of hiddenness -- a major lesson of the Purim story, both past and present. Our hosts engage in a fascinating discussion of the Breastplate of the High Priest and its mysterious, oracle-like function known as the 'Urim V'Thummim', and begin to prepare for the upcoming days of Purim... The Fast of Esther will be observed on Monday, March 2 2026. Purim in most of the world will be observed on Tuesday March 3, and in Jerusalem, Shushan Purim will be observed on Wednesday March 4. Purim Sameach, Blessings for a joyous Purim to all! _________ Rabbi Chaim Richman Jerusalem Lights | Torah for Everyone Please support the work of Jerusalem Lights, Inc., a USA recognized 501 ( c ) 3 non-profit organization to enable these productions to continue and grow: PayPal: [email protected] or: https://paypal.me/JerusalemLights?loc...
