1. The previous Torah portion (Parshas Tzav) told us about how the Jewish people inaugurated the Mishkan (the Tabernacle) for seven days. This weeks Torah portion starts off with telling us that “On the eighth day” Aaron the Kohen Gadol (the High Priest) and his sons the Kohanim (the Priests) were anointed to their positions (Leviticus, Chapter 9, Verse 1).
2. The Rebbe now asks a question which is asked by one of the commentaries called the “Kli Yakar”(Rabbi Shlomo Efraim of Luntchitz):
