1. This year the Parshas (Torah portions) of Vayakhel and Pekudei are read together on one Shabbos.
2. We know that generally the name of something hints at what the thing is all about. This is especially so with regards to the name of a Parshah (Torah portion) because everything in the Torah is perfectly exact.
Let us examine our two portions of this Shabbos and see if their names fit with their content:

Baruch Dayan Haemes
A few days ago a question has arisen over the Jewish identity of one of the woman working in the ‘Lubavitch Matzah’ bakery in Crown Heights. According to the ‘Shulchan Aruch’ in order for Matzos to be good for use as ‘Matzos Mitzvah’ only a Jew may be involved in the entire process of making the Matzah, for a Goy cannot say ‘Leshem Matzot Mitzvah’.
The bakery employs Russian and Polish ladies that roll the dough, one of which has the question arisen over. The woman had been temporarily removed and all matzos that were baked up until a few days ago will be held until her proper identity can be determined.
