Sh'mot

Exodus 1:1 – 6:1

Inner Illumination  Ismar Schorsch,  Jewish Theological Seminary.  At the burning bush, the paradigmatic human quest for God meets a divine response.  SAVE

Why Tziporah?  Sharon Rimon,  Virtual Beit Midrash.  In the process of redemption women play a central role, and none more so than Moses' wife Tziporah, who saves her husband's life—and his mission.  SAVE

Moses Was Right to be Afraid  Jonathan Sacks,  Covenant and Conversation.  By looking away from God's presence, Moses preserved his capacity for human empathy as well as his faith in divine justice.  SAVE
