30) \u201cAnd God led the people around by the way of the desert of the Red Sea,\u201d meaning to correct the way to His place, to make the tearing of the Red Sea. Otherwise, it would have been enough to guide them through the desert and not through the Red Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is the difference for which it is written, \u201cAnd God led the people around,\u201d and when Israel were in Egypt, it said, \u201cSend my people away,\u201d and it is written, \u201cFor if you refuse to send my people away.\u201d Although at that time they were not circumcised and were properly tied to the Creator, it is written, \u200e\u201cMy son, My firstborn, Israel.\u201d \u200eAnd here, when they were circumcised and did the Passover and were tied to him, He calls them, \u201cthe people\u201d and not \u201cMy people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
31) Because the mixed multitude clung to them and mingled with them, He called them only \u201cthe people,\u201d and not \u201cMy people,\u201d as it is written, \u201cAnd the Lord smote the people.\u201d \u201cAnd the people assembled about Aaron.\u201d \u201cAnd the people saw that Moses was delayed.\u201d When Israel were in a poor state, He called them only \u201cpeople\u201d and not \u201cMy people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
33) It is written, \u201cDo not fret because of evildoers.\u201d Evildoers are those who cheer for themselves and for those who bond with them. \u201cDo not fret because of evildoers\u201d means stay away from evildoers, do not befriend them and associate with them, so his deeds will not harm you and you will not be caught by his sins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
34) Were it not for the mixed multitude that connected to Israel, the deed with the calf would not have happened and those of Israel who died would not have died, and they would not have caused Israel all that they had caused. This deed and this iniquity caused the exile for Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
35) The Creator wanted Israel to be in the reception of the Torah, as the high angels. He wanted to make them free of everything, free of death, and liberated from the enslavement of the rest of the people, as it is written, \u201cHarut<\/em> [engraved] on the tablets,\u201d do not pronounce it Harut<\/em>, with a Het<\/em> with Kamatz<\/em> [\u05d7\u05b8], but Herut<\/em> [freedom],\u201d with a Het<\/em> with Tzereh<\/em> [\u05d7\u05b5].<\/p>\n\n\n\n 36) When that deed was done, it caused death; it caused the enslavement of the Malchuts<\/em>; it caused the shattering of the first tablets, and caused several thousand of Israel to die. All of it was because of the bonding with the mixed multitude that bonded with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 37) Here, too, because of the mixed multitude, they were not called \u201cthe children of Israel,\u201d or \u201cIsrael,\u201d or \u201cMy people,\u201d but simply, \u201cthe people.\u201d When they rose from Egypt and the mixed multitude had not bonded with them, He called them \u201cthe children of Israel.\u201d When the mixed multitude bonded with them, He called them \u201cthe people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 38) It is written, \u201cFor the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again forever.\u201d Thus, were they seeing the mixed multitude who were in Egypt each day? However, it writes \u201cmixed multitude\u201d and not \u201cEgypt,\u201d since there were several other nations in Egypt, and they constituted the mixed multitude. They were all circumcised, and since they were circumcised, they were not called \u201cEgypt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 39) And by the word of Moses they accepted them, as it is written, \u201cGo down at once, for your people … have corrupted themselves. They have quickly turned aside from the way which I commanded them.\u201d It writes, \u201cCommanded them,\u201d meaning that Moses commanded them to accept the mixed multitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnd the children of Israel went up armed from the land of Egypt,\u201d meaning that Israel were one in five [the word \u201carmed\u201d can relate to the word \u201cfive\u201d in Hebrew]. Rabbi Yosi says, \u201cIsrael were five, and one from the mixed multitude.\u201d Rabbi Yehuda says, \u201cThe mixed multitude were one in fifty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 40) Because the Yovel<\/em> [jubilee\/fiftieth anniversary], Bina<\/em>, raised them from the land of Egypt, it is written, \u201cAnd the children of Israel went up armed from the land of Egypt.\u201d Bina<\/em> is called Yovel<\/em>, and there are fifty gates in her. Were it not for the Yovel<\/em>, they would not have risen. For this reason, they were detained fifty days to receive the Torah, and from that place, from the Yovel<\/em>, the Torah came out and was given. For this reason, \u201cArmed\u201d is written without a Vav [in Hebrew]. That is, if it were to mean \u201carmed,\u201d it should have said \u201carmed\u201d with a Vav<\/em> [with the vowel, called \u201cfull text\u201d]. However, it implies to the number fifty, which is Yovel<\/em>, that it is for this reason that Israel rose from Egypt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 41) \u201cAnd Moses took the bones of Joseph.\u201d Why Moses? It is because he was the first to go down to exile, and it was for him the token of the redemption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 42) Happy is Moses, for Israel were engaged in borrowing silver from Egypt, and Moses was engaged in Joseph\u2019s oath. Some say it was Joseph\u2019s coffin that was in the Nile and Moses lifted it through the holy Name. Moses also said, \u201cJoseph, it is time for Israel\u2019s redemption.\u201d And he said, \u201cLet an ox rise,\u2019 and it rose. Joseph is called \u201can ox,\u201d as it is written, \u201cAs the firstborn of his ox, majesty is his.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some say that he was among the kings of Egypt and rose from there. And some say that he was put in the Nile so they will not do idol worship, and Serach, daughter of Asher\u2014who was alive during the act\u2014showed Moses his place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 30) \u201cAnd God led the people around by the way of the desert of the Red Sea,\u201d meaning to correct […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":11312,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[28],"class_list":["post-11317","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
