📖 Parshat Tetzaveh This Week: Jews have long been in the 'schmatta business,' not just a Marvelous Mrs. Maisel stereotype but reality. Many Jewish fashion icons trace their roots to the garment industry. Why this connection? Look at this week's parsha: an entire Torah portion obsessed with what the Kohen Gadol wears, not what he does, but what he wears. The subtle point: before serving God, the kohen must feel the weight of responsibility. His clothing reminds him he represents something bigger than himself. Same for us. Jews have always dressed differently, not for fashion but as a uniform showing we're connected to something greater. We have a calling beyond our individual lives. The clothes really do make the man. They remind us of our mission. Shabbat Shalom. 👔
