Parsha Paradise/פרשה פרדס - Mishpatim: The Sapphire Brickwork 💎🧱💎🧱💎

At the end of Mishpatim, the Torah describes the scene of Kabbalas HaTorah, but from the unique and loftier vantage point of the Zikeinim. What did they see? The Torah describes as follows [Shemos 24:10] '... כְּמַֽעֲשֵׂה֙ לִבְנַ֣ת הַסַּפִּ֔יר וּכְעֶ֥צֶם הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם לָטֹֽהַר''...like brickwork of sapphire and like essence of Heaven to its purity.'      What in the world does that mean? Perhaps, that's the wrong question. After all, the Torah is describing a sight well beyond this world. That said, the Torah uses words and images we can relate to somewhat so as to give us something of an understanding. We will use the 4 layers of Pardeis to achieve such an understanding.
