Parsha Perspectives for Today (Beshalach)

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Efrem Goldberg’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

is a rich pasha that continues the story the narrative of our exodus from mitzrayim really the culmination of that last word and not only did hashem spare us and save us and he redeemed us and then he took us the alti what we spoke about two weeks ago the notion of alti that he redeemed us took place when we saw our oppressor drown in the sea we no longer had to look over our shoulder in fear worry and anxiousness but then we were truly free not only were we taking adam it's trying to try was taken out of us there's so much to talk about in parish bashal but alas bashal but alas this week is yeshiva week and i will be with my family but i did not want to skip all together so we'll have a little bit of an abbreviated shirt this morning and i appreciate everybody's understanding but just to be able to capture some of the ideas of our wonderful parasha by hibish para essam and it was when para sent out the people which para was credited and of course hashem didn't lead them by the way of the land of pleasure even though it was closer it would have been the more direct route it's a very fragile people a very vulnerable people they might have turned they might have come right back around so the people are stuck between the proverbial and literal rock and a hard place the egyptians are pursuing them from behind they arrive at the sea in front of them and they don't know what to do and they panic and great debate ensues until yehudah's great grandson takes the courageous move puts a foot a toe in the water keeps walking until it gets higher and higher the sea splits they come out on the other side
