Short Message:	I thought you might like to read this article on the Israel Center website: ---------------------------------------------- Chizuk & Idud - Vayakhel-P'kudei Rashi comments: “the word mishkan is repeated as an allusion to the “Mishkan” (here referring to the Beit HaMikdash) that was forfeit twice as collateral for the sins of Israel.” Rashi seems to connect the two concepts with a simple play on words. In Ivrit, Tabernacle is “mIshkAn” and collateral is “mAshkOn.” Of course, one would not expect Rashi to base his commentary on a linguistic trick. http://www.ouisrael.org/tidbits/detail/1179/
