just as the Six Days prepared for the continuity of the World, in turn
the Mishkan sets the stage for the Active Projection of Presence of Hashem, ten
crowns of the day akin to the ten speeches of Hashem. The Mishkan is built by
the ??gestalt/duality?? of Yisrael and Hashem. First Bnei Yisrael actively made
the components, then Moshe assembled it, then on Yom Hashmini made it a fixture

the Mishkan is pieces assembled by the individual artisans of Bnei Yisrael; then
the assembly into one unit was done the first time by Moshe Rabeinu, and was
