And they rush, because they were nimble in everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>62) \u201cAnd he took six hundred select chariots.\u201d It is written, \u201cThe Lord will command over the host of heaven on high and over the kings of the earth on earth.\u201d When the Creator gives governance to the ministers of the nations above, He gives to their peoples below. When He lowers them from their degree above, He lowers their peoples below. \u201cAnd he took six hundred select chariots\u201d is their appointee, who took them. He drove the chariots of the rest of the nations, meaning that those six hundred chariots were not from Egypt, but from the rest of the nations. And they all fell in the camp of Sisera, meaning the six hundred select chariots, and then all the chariots of Egypt. Because it is written, \u201cAnd all the chariots of Egypt,\u201d the \u201cSix hundred select chariots\u201d is redundant. However, of course the six hundred select chariots are from the rest of the nations. This is why it is later written, \u201cAnd all the chariots of Egypt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>63) It is written, \u201cTo me, my wife, you resemble my mare among the chariots of Pharaoh.\u201d To Pharaoh\u2019s horses, she seemed like a mare, and this is why they chased her to the sea. While Pharaoh was chasing Israel, he took mares and harnessed them to the chariot first, and harnessed the male horses behind them. Thus, the male horses were heating up for the mares, and the mares refused them and ran quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he approached Israel, he took the mares and placed them in the back, and put the males up front, to harm Israel and to wage war against them because for war, males are stronger than females.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>64) Similarly, \u201cAnd the Lord was walking before them by day,\u201d and then the Shechina returned to the rear of Israel, as it is written, \u201cAnd the angel of God &#8230; moved and went behind them.\u201d For this reason, \u201cTo me, my wife, you resemble,\u201d since&nbsp;<em>Vav<\/em>&#8211;<em>Hey<\/em>&nbsp;are&nbsp;<em>Tifferet<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, meaning He and His courthouse. Afterwards, it is written, \u201cAnd the angel of God,\u201d who is&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, \u201cMoved and went behind them.\u201d And&nbsp;<em>Tifferet<\/em>&nbsp;remained walking before them, to fight the Egyptians. It is written about that, \u201cTo me, my wife, you resemble,\u201d from the word&nbsp;<em>Demamah<\/em>&nbsp;[\u201cstillness.\u201d&nbsp;<em>Damam<\/em>&nbsp;is the root of both \u201csimilar\u201d and \u201cstill\u201d], since he positioned her behind Israel, to fight the Egyptians on his own and to obliterate them until not one of them is left.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>61) \u201cAnd he took six hundred select chariots, and all the other chariots of Egypt with officers over all of
