Episode Description
Chapter 8 depicts the cermonial dedication of the Levites.
We pick three points of interest here:
1. The "semicha" - the laying of the people's hands on the Levites
2. The lighting of the Menorah - The power of the small routine actions that make a big difference
3. After age fifty, the Levites retire. What is their role at that point in their lives? We speak of the older levites as a force of sage wisdom that can modify and temper religious passions and fads.
