Shemot This week we begin the story of the Jewish people in Egypt becoming greater and stronger very fast and eventually being forced to be slaves to King Pharaoh. Pharaoh wants to make sure the Jews will never be freed, so he makes sure all Jewish boys are put into the river. Basya, Pharaoh’s daughter saves one baby whom she names Moshe. Moshe is forced to run away to Midian and marries the daughter of Yisro, called Tzipporah. They have two children, Gershom and Eliezer. Moshe is spoken to by Hashem at a burning bush and is told to go to Pharaoh and demand that the Jews be set free. When Moshe says – how will I prove that I am the right person to do this? Hashem tells him to throw down his stick and it would turn into a snake. Moshe goes back to Egypt and is greeted by his brother Aharon, who is happy for his brother and together they go to Pharaoh with the message from Hashem. Does Pharaoh agree? No! (Or, not yet! As in a few weeks he will let them go VERY dramatically). For now, he makes the work even harder. However, Hashem will eventually punish the Egyptians for all they did to the Jews and next week we begin the 10 Makkos!
