This week's Torah parsha is one that sometimes inspires apathy, or even derision: What possible relevance does a description of clothing for a 'tabernacle' that no longer exists, worn by a line of priests that no longer exists, have in a world where the only people wearing truly fancy duds are either criminal attorneys (pun intended) or "ladies of the evening" or political mob bosses? (But I repeat myself in probably every case there.)
The answer may lie in the gut-wrenching CONTRAST between clothing that is intended "for splendor and for beauty" for those who serve YHVH, as opposed to a world where literally everything seems intended "for squalor and for ugly."
There's a lesson in the symbolism.
