Parsha Beshalach Part 1 and condensed Part 2. Story, news

 

Miriam Ester bas Golda Chaya is recovering very well from her operation and told me that she can be removed from my prayers’ list. Suddenly, I realized that I had not put out the revised list for Sefer Shemos so here it is. A few less people to pray for. Since I daven for them twice a day in Rofaynu prayer it is a relief for me and perhaps holding up the Minyan by a couple seconds per person. For perhaps 5 or more years poor Daniel ben Rivka is waiting for a kidney because he has O negative blood.

Parsha Beshalach Part 1

 

Perhaps the most important spiritual incidents in the history of the Bnei Yisrael are about to happen. This week we have the splitting of the sea and the Bnei Yisrael going through on dry land and next week the giving of the Decalogue.

 

13:17 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said: 'Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt.' 

 

Lo Derech Eretz or not the natural way of the land. They would have a pillar of cloud by day and a fire guiding them by night certainly not the normal way. The simple reason is that if freed slaves see war without practical training, they will flee and want to return to Egypt. For fish and watermelons, they wanted to return to Egypt when they complained about the Mann all the more so war. So even though taking the coastal route into Eretz Yisrael was the shortest route without mountains going in an L down the Nile and up the coast the more difficult route was up the mountains eastward but almost no danger of war.

 

18 But God led the people about, by the way of the wilderness by the Red Sea; and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt. 19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him; for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying: 'God will surely remember you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.' 

 

They either took all the brothers or buried them separately. Dan is surprisingly buried not in the two sections of Dan but near the Shimshon Junction. This is close to where Shimon HaGibor (the hero) took the jawbone of an ass and killed many Plistim.

 

20 And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness. 21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; that they might go by day and by night: 22 the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, departed not from before the people. 

 

For 40 years.

14:1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 2 'Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal-zephon, over against it shall ye encamp by the sea. 

This is the modern Nueva.

3 And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel: They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in. 4 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he shall follow after them; and I will get Me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD.' And they did so. 5 And it was told the king of Egypt that the people were fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned towards the people, and they said: 'What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us? 

His son was dead and buried and he forgot that his gods fell. Three days of going and returning had occurred so he became angry that they were not on their way back.

6 And he made ready his chariots, and took his people with him. 7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them. 

This is like 600 APC or Tanks chasing after the runaway slaves as it was obvious to him that they had fled Egypt.

8 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand. 9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, in front of Baal-zephon. 10 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were sore afraid; and the children of Israel cried out unto the LORD. 

They were corned between the Egyptians two mountains and the sea with no way out at least it looked that way.

11 And they said unto Moses: 'Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to bring us forth out of Egypt? 

It is obvious that if they were not ready for war Derek Eretz Plishtim against the Philistines, this time they were up against 600 chariots with foot soldiers racing behind them to bring them back to Mitzrayim.

12 Is not this the word that we spoke unto thee in Egypt, saying: Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it were better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.' 

They could not fathom fighters like Avram or Yacov and the brothers by Schem. It was the slave mentality to fight a super power that held them back.

13 And Moses said unto the people: 'Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will work for you to-day; for whereas ye have seen the Egyptians to-day, ye shall see them again no more forever. 

This is the end of Egypt as you and Pharaoh knew it. Forever, you will have peace from them.

14 The LORD will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.' 

HASHEM will fight your fight to be your salvation now just say Amen.

15 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Wherefore cry thou unto Me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward. 

Tell them to walk into the sea.

16 And lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go into the midst of the sea on dry ground. 

Moshe could not use his rod against the river turning to blood for the river had shielded him. Now the sea was about to shield Am Yisrael.

17 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them; and I will get Me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen. 18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten Me honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.' 

Don’t worry about it salvation is here.

19 And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud removed from before them, and stood behind them; 20 and it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud and the darkness here, yet gave it light by night there; and the one came not near the other all the night. 

The arrows and spears that they shot into the cloud came back at them full force.

21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. 22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. 

It appears that the strong east wind with the cold froze the sea on the right and on the left and they went through the dry spot in the middle.

23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. 24 And it came to pass in the morning watch, that the LORD looked forth upon the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and discomfited the host of the Egyptians. 

 

Discomfit is a mild word. We are not talking about mosquitoes, flies or wind but a whole host of things like spears and arrows flying out of the hands of soldiers and coming back to injure them specks in their eyes and dust in their lungs and nostrils. As well trained an elite force that they were, they were out matched by their CREATOR.

 

25 And He took off their chariot wheels, and made them to drive heavily; so that the Egyptians said: 'Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians.

 

As the mud soften from the freezing wind, their wheels either got stuck in the mud or they lost their wheels. The soldiers had two options and that was to pursue the Bnei Yisrael on foot into what is now Saudi Desert. Or they could flee back to Nueva. Whichever way they ran, the water would come crashing down upon them and their armor suits. They were doomed!

 

Part 2 condensed this week to be expanded

 

15:1 Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spoke, saying: I will sing unto the LORD, for He is highly exalted; the horse and his rider hath He thrown into the sea. 2 The LORD is my strength and song, and He is become my salvation; this is my God, and I will glorify Him; my father's God, and I will exalt Him. 3 The LORD is a man of war, The LORD is His name. 

 

At this point, I shall continue next week with the Song by the Sea. I have been managing an upgrade of my parking space and the facet of my home in Israel for the last 2.5 months and between that and happy occasion of a new great grandson, Aaron or Aharon Yehuda Lev (Liab), I have over extended myself. I mention a few points here and will Ble Neder expand more next week.

 

20 And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. 21 And Miriam sang unto them: Sing ye to the LORD, for He is highly exalted: the horse and his rider hath He thrown into the sea. 

 

Being part of the miracle, the women too sang the song by the sea.

 

22 And Moses led Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water. 23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore, the name of it was called Marah. 24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying: 'What shall we drink?' 25 And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD showed him a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There He made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there He proved them; 

 

Moshe went into the wilderness not the way of the Plishtim that was OK but on blind faith following a cloud during the day and the pillar of fire at night. No planning went into the journey. So Moshe had to worry about Chessdei (mercy of) HASHEM for food and water. One needs water much sooner than one needs food.

 

… 27 And they came to Elim, where were twelve springs of water, and three score and ten palm-trees; and they encamped there by the waters.

16:1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt. 2 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness; 3 and the children of Israel said unto them: 'Would that we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.' 

 

There is no indication that the people were starving only they did not have a regular food supply.

 

4 Then said the LORD unto Moses: 'Behold, I will cause to rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in My law, or not. 

 

This section is called Parsha HaMann after the Manna.

 

5 And it shall come to pass on the sixth day that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.' 6 And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel: 'At even, then ye shall know that the LORD hath brought you out from the land of Egypt; 7 and in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the LORD; for that He hath heard your murmurings against the LORD; and what are we, that ye murmur against us?' 

 

Since the creation of the world, this is the first time that Shabbos being a special day is indicated.

 

8 And Moses said: 'This shall be, when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the LORD hears your murmurings which ye murmur against Him; and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD.' 9 And Moses said unto Aaron: 'Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel: Come near before the LORD; for He hath heard your murmurings.' 10 And it came to pass, as Aaron spoke unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud. 

 

So after this third trial of G-D the people have unlimited meat for a month but the gluttons will die for their behavior.

 

11 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 12 'I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel. Speak unto them, saying: At dusk ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God.' 13 And it came to pass at even, that the quails came up, and covered the camp; and in the morning there was a layer of dew round about the camp. 14 And when the layer of dew was gone up, behold upon the face of the wilderness a fine, scale-like thing, fine as the hoar-frost on the ground. 15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another: 'What is it?'--for they knew not what it was. And Moses said unto them: 'It is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat. … 22 And it came to pass that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one; and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses. 23 And he said unto them: 'This is that which the LORD hath spoken: To-morrow is a solemn rest, a holy sabbath unto the LORD. Bake that which ye will bake, and seethe that which ye will seethe; and all that remains over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.' 24 And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade; and it did not rot, neither was there any worm therein. 25 And Moses said: 'Eat that to-day; for to-day is a sabbath unto the LORD; to-day ye shall not find it in the field. 26 Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.' 27 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that there went out some of the people to gather, and they found none. 

 

So HASHEM established the holiness of Shabbos for the people.

 

28 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'How long refuse ye to keep My commandments and My laws? 29 See that the LORD hath given you the sabbath; therefore He giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.' 30 So the people rested on the seventh day. 

… 17:1 And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, by their stages, according to the commandment of the LORD, and encamped in Rephidim; and there was no water for the people to drink. … 5 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Pass on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smote the river, take in thy hand, and go. 6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink.' And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. 7 And the name of the place was called Massah, and Meribah, because of the striving of the children of Israel, and because they tried the LORD, saying: 'Is the LORD among us, or not?' 

 

Another testing of G-D because again there was no water. But this time, they were so rebellious that a punishment came.

 

8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim. 9 And Moses said unto Joshua: 'Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.' 10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. … 14 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Write this for a memorial in the book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.' 15 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Adonai-nissi. 16 And he said: 'The hand upon the throne of the LORD: the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.' 

My chair aka Throne will not be complete until Amalek is destroyed completely in the last generation.


A Blessing for Broadway by Rabbi Y. Tilles

s1206RayatzDuduFisher.pdf (ascentofsafed.com)

 

I [Dudu Fisher] am descended from generations of those who opposed Chasidism, and yet I am walking this earth because of a blessing from a chasidic rebbe, Rabbi Yosef-Yitzchak Schneersohn the Rebbe Rayatz, who was the Rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch from 1920 to 1950. This is what happened: During the time that the Rebbe Rayatz was staying in Riga, Latvia, my grandparents were living on the outskirts of the city. In January of 1932, in the freeze of the winter, my grandmother went into labor with my mother, and things started to go wrong. She was rushed to the hospital where the doctors decided that it was necessary to abort the baby in order to save her life. My grandmother, Frieda-Gisha, was unwilling to accept the doctors’ verdict but, fearing for her life, she asked her sister Leah to run to the nearest synagogue and pray for her. She said she would not make any decision until Leah returned. So, in the middle of the night, Leah, my great-aunt, did just that — like her sister asked, she ran to the nearest synagogue and started praying. She went up to the holy ark, where the Torah scrolls are kept, grabbed onto the curtain and pleaded with G-d for the life of her sister and her unborn baby. As she was praying and crying, a woman tapped her on the shoulder. Leah did not know who this woman was — perhaps the cleaning lady — but when this woman said, “Come with me,” she followed her. Together they went to where the Rebbe Rayatz was staying at the time and asked for his blessing. They received it in writing, and I still have it; it is a treasured possession in my family. It says: “With the help of G-d, everything will go well. You will give birth to a healthy and living child.” Leah took this blessing and rushed to the hospital, where she was informed that her sister had just been taken into the delivery room. A short while later Frieda Gissa gave birth in a totally normal way to my mother, Miriam, whom the doctors had recommended aborting. Our family has kept the Rebbe’s note for these many years. It is preserved in a safe, and we take it out only when a relative is giving birth so she can take it to the hospital with her. I myself have a copy, and I carry it with me wherever I go. Two years after my grandmother gave birth to my mother, my grandparents left Latvia and went to live in Israel. It was just in time. The members of my family who stayed behind — fourteen in total — were murdered by the Latvians in the streets. We have witness testimony from those who saw it happen. Meanwhile, my mother grew up in Israel with an unusual attachment to Chabad, despite her father’s anti-chasidic attitudes. Later on, it was in her house, and with her help, that Rabbi Menashe Althaus started the Chabad Center in Tivon. Myself, I enlisted in the IDF, and after I completed my army service, I started singing professionally. I was a cantor for many years. Then, while I was in London for a cantorial concert, a cousin invited me to see the musical, Les Miserables, and when I went back to Israel, I told my manager that I wanted to take part in the Hebrew production. He had no idea what I was talking about, but he quickly found out that ‘Les Miserables’ — called in Hebrew, ‘Aluvay HaChaim’ — was coming to a theater in Tel Aviv. I got the part and became famous for it. While I was performing in Tel Aviv, Sir Cameron Mackintosh, the world producer of ‘Les Miserables,’ saw my performance and asked me to come to Broadway. I was stunned. Of course, every singer wants to appear on Broadway, but I turned him down. I said, “I don’t think this will be possible for me, because I am an observant Jew; I don’t work on Shabbat or on Jewish holidays.” He said, “Let us meet again to see how we can solve this problem. ”Meanwhile, the story leaked out to the media and the Israeli newspapers blared, “Dudu Fisher goes to Broadway,” which was by no means a done-deal. My mother saw that this whole thing was making me depressed, and she suggested, “Why don’t you go see the Lubavitcher Rebbe in Brooklyn, the successor to the one who blessed your grandmother?” I said, “What am I going to talk to him about — Broadway? So many people are coming to him with real troubles like poverty and illness. How can I bother him with this?” She insisted, “The blessing of a Lubavitcher Rebbe helped us once before; it will help us again.” This was in early 1992. It was no longer possible to see him in a private audience, but it was possible to receive a dollar for charity and a blessing every Sunday. When my turn came the Rebbe gave me a blessing and told me not to worry; everything would turn out well. His exact words were, “G-d willing, you will hear good news soon. You will go from strength to strength.” And that is exactly what happened. I got the part. Not only that, the Playbill featured the announcement that, for religious reasons, Dudu Fisher would not be playing the part of Jean Valjean on Friday nights and during Saturday matinees. In fact, this outcome was nothing short of a miracle -- which never happened before or after, it was a one-time only occurrence. They called me “the Sandy Koufax of the theater” — referring to the great Jewish baseball player who refused to participate in the 1965 World Series because it fell on Yom Kippur. Personally, I consider it one of the biggest achievements of my life. When I leave this earth, I hope that people will remember me for this: that I would not violate Shabbat and that I showed it was possible to make it in the world without compromising one’s beliefs. But, most of all, I am ever so grateful to the Rebbe for helping me to get this message across to the Jewish world at large. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Source: Edited and supplemented by Yerachmiel Tilles from a mailing of "JEM - Here's My Story” (//JEmedia.org), as part of their extraordinary “My Encounter with the Rebbe” project, documenting the life of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson of righteous memory. More than 1500 videotaped interviews have been conducted to date, all based on the recollections of the people recounting them. Dudu Fisher is a famed Israeli cantor and popular singer, who also played the role of Jean Valjean in the musical Les Miserables in Tel Aviv, in New York and in London. He was interviewed in July of 2015, a few months before his 64th birthday. Connection: Seasonal--the 71st yahrzeit of the Rebbe Rayatz of Chabad. Photo source: R' Chaim Dalfin relates that he heard from R' Meir Plotkin, who heard from R' Yosef Zalmanov -- the only son of R' Shmuel Zalmanov, regarding this picture: “Twice a year the Rebbe Rayatz would instruct that the door to his apartment should be locked and no one allowed to enter. This was on Erev Yom Kippur and on Chanukah. On Chanukah 5710, his son-in-law and eventual successor, the Rebbe, quietly called R' Shmuel Zalmanov and told him: “‘Stand outside the door with a camera, I will open the door a little, and see how my father-in-law the Rebbe sits by the menorah. You will take a photo, whereupon I immediately will close the door.’ “And so it was.” Biographical notes: Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn [of blessed memory: 12 Tammuz 5640 - 10 Shvat 5710 (Jan. 1880-June 1950)], known as the Rebbe Rayatz, was the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, from 1920 to 1950. He established a network of Jewish educational institutions and Chassidim that was the single most significant factor for the preservation of Judaism during the dread reign of the communist Soviets. In 1940 he moved to the USA, established Chabad world-wide headquarters in Brooklyn and launched the global campaign to renew and spread Judaism in all languages and in every corner of the world, the campaign continued and expanded so remarkably successfully by his son-in-law and successor, Rabbi Menachem-Mendel Schneerson. Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher Rebbe ד''× ] :11 Nissan 5662 - 3 Tammuz 5754 (April 1902 – June 1994 C.E.)], became the seventh Rebbe of the Chabad dynasty after his father-in-law’s passing on 10 Shvat 5710 (1950 C.E.). He is widely acknowledged as the greatest Jewish leader of the second half of the 20th century. Although a dominant scholar in both the revealed and hidden aspects of Torah and fluent in many languages and scientific subjects, the Rebbe is best known for his extraordinary love and concern for every Jew on the planet. His emissaries around the globe dedicated to strengthening Judaism number in the thousands. Hundreds of volumes of his teachings have been printed, as well as dozens of English renditions.
