About this listen

This shiur offers a multifaceted rabbinic and linguistic analysis of the plague of darkness in Egypt. Commentators debate whether this darkness was a natural phenomenon, such as a thick atmospheric vapor.

We also examine God's purpose behind the plague, suggesting it allowed the Israelites to identify Egyptian treasures or provided cover to bury sinful Hebrews without public shame.

Additionally, we highlight the sharp contrast between the Egyptians' total isolation and the continuous light enjoyed by the Israelites.
