 goldwasser“U’Paroh hikriv vayisu bnei yisroel es eineihem vehineh mitzrayim nosei’a achareihem -- And Pharaoh approached; Bnai Yisroel raised their eyes and behold Egypt was traveling after them ..” (Shemos 14:10)

The Medrash (Shemos Rabbah 21:5) notes that the pasuk initially uses the expression of “hikriv – he came closer” and then it says that Egypt [Pharaoh] was traveling after them.  This tells us that Pharaoh brought Klal Yisroel closer to doing teshuvah.  R’ Brachya said that the proximity of Pharaoh and his army brought Bnai Yisroel closer to teshuvah than one hundred fasts and prayers.  When Bnai Yisroel saw them, they became frightened.  They lifted their eyes to Hashem, they cried and regretted their sins, they did teshuvah and they prayed, as the pasuk concludes, “they cried out to Hashem.”

WALKING THROUGH FIRE

goldwasserThe river shall swarm with frogs, and they shall ascend and come into your palace, your bedroom and your bed …into your ovens and into your kneading bowls (Shemos 7:28).

We read in Sefer Daniel (3) that Nevuchadnezzar erected an idol of gold in the Valley of Dura, in Bovel.  The idol was 60 amos high and its breadth was 6 amos.  All the government leaders were called to participate in the dedication of the idol.  A proclamation was made that when the instruments sound all who are gathered must fall on their face and bow to the idol.   Whoever would not bow to the idol would be thrown into the fiery furnaces.  Everyone bowed, except Chananyah, Misha’el and Azaryah.

A FIGHTING CHANCE …

goldwasserIn the parshiyos preceding this week’s parsha Parshas Shemos -- we read about the Golden Age, when Yosef was in his position of power in Mitzrayim, and Pharaoh personally promised him and his brothers that they would be privileged to benefit from all of Egypt’s blessings and prosperity.   Many people think that Galus Mitzrayim (the Egyptian exile) begins with Parshas Shemos when, as the Torah tells us, a new king arose in Mitzrayim who did not know Yosef.  Rashi explains that Pharaoh feigned ignorance of Yosef and we read of the decrees that were promulgated and Bnai Yisroel’s subsequent servitude.

goldwasserYaakov Avinu blesses his son Yehuda (Bereishis 49:12), Chachlili einayim miyoyin ulven shinayim meichalav -- their eyes will be reddened from the abundance of wine and their teeth will be white from the abundance of milk.”    

The Talmud (Kesubos 111b) explains that one who smiles to his friend (i.e. his eyes reflect kindness and affection and he shows his teeth) is better than one who gives his friend milk to drink.
