We cried out to Hashem. Prayer, its essence, it's time, it's purpose revealed.

This week's parsha tells of the chase of the Egyptians, the great splitting of the sea, the song and dance of praise and the start of the hardships in the desert life.

In this episode we explore prayer, as the Jews cried to Hashem, as Moshe prayed, and how through prayer each of us can achieve a mini "splitting of the sea" - reveling of the essence on a daily bases.

We also explose the sugnificance of Joseph's bones being brought up,(mentioned at the begining of the parsha) and how that is what got us through and had an effect on the war of Amalek, with which our parsha concludes.

Out of Egypt! Finally!

For a purpose.

Leaving the servitude of Egypt, with a purpose, for a reason. We leave to serve, to serve Hashem.

Connection above intellect, Moshe's relationship with Hashem.

Lessons in getting through hardships and the mystery of some of the plagues.

In this episode, we dive into powerful ideas from Parshas Shemos about names, leadership, and redemption. We explore why calling someone by name—even after passing—is an expression of deep connection, and how a name reflects something far beyond labels or insults.

We look at Pharaoh’s attempt to outsmart Hashem, the concept of mida k’neged mida, and how Moshe Rabbeinu’s very birth began undoing the Egyptian decrees. Drawing from Gemara, Midrash, and Chassidus, we discuss why Moshe is described as “good,” how his birth filled the house with light, and what that reveals about his role as a leader for the entire world.

The episode also unpacks the symbolism of the Nile as a source of exile and idolatry—and how Moshe’s emergence from it signals the start of redemption. We explore the burning bush as a message that Hashem is present with us in times of pain, and the deeper meaning of “Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh.”

We wrap up with the fascinating image of the donkey—used by Avraham, Moshe, and ultimately Moshiach—representing simple faith, action without hesitation, and elevating the physical world for spiritual purpose.

Thought-provoking Torah insights that connect Moshe’s story to our own journey toward geulah.
