The ten plagues that made G-d’s name known in all the world happened many years ago in the land of Egypt. The process they began of bringing the knowledge of G-d’s presence and power to all humankind for all generations continues till today. They resound and reverberate every time a Pharaoh arises and says “I do not know Hashem.”

The Clash of Civilizations

Coming to Your Town Soon: The Battle Between Good and Evil

ParisThis week’s Torah portion of parashat Va’eira features seven of the Ten Plagues. Towards the end of the portion, the Pharoah finally seems to be having a sincere change of heart, declaring ‘This time I have sinned; G-d is the righteous one, and I and my people are the wicked ones.’ But it turned out that he was just up to his tricks again, and he quickly reverted back to his old self – total denying G-d. As the world mourns and expresses shock and outrage over last week’s terror attacks in France, Temple Talk’s Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman present a searing, difficult and brutally honest analysis of these current events. There’s no mincing of words here, and there’s no going back: either the world comes to its senses, or plunges irrevocably into the gaping abyss of insatiable evil.

From the moment of his birth until he came of age, Moshe was nurtured, kept alive and cared for by women of undaunted courage and unshakable fear of G-d. Of these righteous women, none was more striking in her compassion and desire to do good than Bitya, the daughter of Pharaoh, who rescued Moshe, raised him and gave him the name for which he is known until today.

Identity and Destiny

The Book of Exodus: What is bondage and what is freedom?

TevetThis week we begin the second book of the Torah, the book of Exodus, which tells of the formation of Israel’s identity as a nation with a unique destiny. But the Torah is alive, and the account has a contemporary ring: questions, parallels and recurring themes abound. This week’s Temple Talk features a lively discussion of the essence ancient and modern bondage, and the paradigm of true freedom which the Torah beckons and guides us to achieve.

On his deathbed Yaakov avinu  (our father Jacob) maps out an end of days prophecy for the children of Israel, reserving a special place for Yehudah, from whose loins will emerge leaders and kings and a messiah who will bring all mankind to G-d and redemption to all mankind.

Recognition and reconciliation. These two words are the key to parashat Vayigash and the key to the unity of Israel. We are all individuals and each one of us marches to a different drum, but it is the recognition of one another’s worth that is the glue that binds Israel together. Together as one, the future is bright.
