Vayikra ויקרא 2024 the Burning of the Wood Inspirational Thoughts on the Parsha
-
- Judaism
Why is it that that when families would donate wood for the Mizbayach it was an even greater celebration than the one for the Karbon itself? The concept of bringing a Karbon is sacrificing oneself and subjugating oneself to Hashem. However, the actual Karbon represents the specific area that you are attempting to improve, thus the laws vary according to each Karbon. However, there is no guarantee that you will change completely. Hence, to prepare for that change, we burn the wood prior to sacrificing all the Karbonas, representing one’s complete subjugation to Hashem.
