Beginning Numbers / Bamidbar 4:29

בְּנֵי מְרָרִי לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם לְבֵית־אֲבֹתָם תִּפְקֹד אֹתָם׃

As for the Merarites, you shall record them by the clans of their ancestral house;

מִבֶּן שְׁלֹשִׁים שָׁנָה וָמַעְלָה וְעַד בֶּן־חֲמִשִּׁים שָׁנָה תִּפְקְדֵם כׇּל־הַבָּא לַצָּבָא לַעֲבֹד אֶת־עֲבֹדַת אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד׃

you shall record them from the age of thirty years up to the age of fifty, all who are subject to service in the performance of the duties for the Tent of Meeting.

וְזֹאת מִשְׁמֶרֶת מַשָּׂאָם לְכׇל־עֲבֹדָתָם בְּאֹהֶל מוֹעֵד קַרְשֵׁי הַמִּשְׁכָּן וּבְרִיחָיו וְעַמּוּדָיו וַאֲדָנָיו׃

These are their porterage tasks in connection with their various duties for the Tent of Meeting: the planks, the bars, the posts, and the sockets of the Tabernacle;

וְעַמּוּדֵי הֶחָצֵר סָבִיב וְאַדְנֵיהֶם וִיתֵדֹתָם וּמֵיתְרֵיהֶם לְכׇל־כְּלֵיהֶם וּלְכֹל עֲבֹדָתָם וּבְשֵׁמֹת תִּפְקְדוּ אֶת־כְּלֵי מִשְׁמֶרֶת מַשָּׂאָם׃

the posts around the enclosure and their sockets, pegs, and cords—all these furnishings and their service: you shall list by name the objects that are their porterage tasks.

זֹאת עֲבֹדַת מִשְׁפְּחֹת בְּנֵי מְרָרִי לְכׇל־עֲבֹדָתָם בְּאֹהֶל מוֹעֵד בְּיַד אִיתָמָר בֶּן־אַהֲרֹן הַכֹּהֵן׃

Those are the duties of the Merarite clans, pertaining to their various duties in the Tent of Meeting under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.

Ingredients:

  • Bear shaped animal crackers
  • 1-2 large marshmallows
  • Pretzel Rods
  • Powdered sugar or corn starch or potato starch

Step 1:

Taking care to dip your scissors in powdered sugar between cuts, cut the marshmallows into slices. Slice the flat sides, with your blades on either side of the narrower edge, so that you are pushing the marshmallow into a rounder shape, rather than making it flatter.

Step 2:

Cut each slice in half, and press each half on to a bear-shaped animal cracker so that it stands.

Step 3:

Take four (or more) of the standing bears, and line them in a row. Hold your pretzel rod so that the rod touches all bears in the same spot. Adjust the bears as needed so they all line up and can support the pretzel rod on the one side.

Step 4:

Add three (or more) bears on the other side, so that the pretzel rod is supported from both sides.
