Yisro -What was Moses really? Wasn't he the King of the Israelites?
So many teachers have said:
Receiving the Torah is NOT EASY!
But Rabbi Carlebach said: Not easy – but it’s SO GOOD!
So Moses convinces the Israelites they want to hear the 10 Commandments-
What a great politician!
Nobody could be more a king than a leader who is
Chief planner
chief judge
Chief provider
Chief inspiration
AND Chief politician (but honest …) – mediating between the tribes …
So why don't we call him - Like King David? Why is Moses the TEACHER – Moshe Rabaynu?
Here Rabbi Carlebach teaches us: The trick to ENTERING HOLINESS in a confusing world
G-d the Creator comes to Man in form of Moses and says“Remember me?”
Moses says “yes – but what’s this burning bush about?”
G-d the Al-mighty says : I told you“you will be coming back here for a better of understanding – AFTER
YOUR TASK – TO GET MY CHILDREN OUT OF EGYPT”
So Moses spends the next couple of YEARS (not days)And fulfills his task ?
Water manna – the tough times are over !
UNTIL THEY ALL HEAR G-D SPEAKING THE COMMANDMENTs
And they TOGETHER get a NEW TASK -
where WE ARE ALL EQUAL -
TO teach the world HOW to - make things BETTER and HOLIER!
Moses - and US - are to be a priestly nation - TEACHING!
The whole world KNOWS of the 10 Commandments -
but how many know that is their purpose in this world?
Shabbat Shalom from Jerusalem
