Parshas Shemos, man in the arena

Parshas Shemos, man in the arena  The Parsha Perspective is in honor of our homeland, Eretz Yisroel.  May G-d protect our brave soldiers as they eradicate our enemies.  May G-d save all the hostages in Gaza from harm and return them immediately.  May G-d comfort all those who lost family or friends in the horrific attack.  May G-d grant a speedy recovery to all those injured in the attack.  The Parsha Perspective is in honor of the Refuah Shlema of HaRav Amitai Ben Shoshanna and those who need to experience a speedy and complete recovery with G-d's help.  The Parsha Perspective is in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. May their souls be uplifted and their memories a blessing. Click here to listen, watch and connect! Parshaperspective.com  The release date of this episode corresponds with the Yahrzeit, the anniversary of the passing of the Alter Rebbe.  Our Parsha ends the origins of a family and begins the birth of a nation. The Torah starts by giving us context to the Jewish people's situation at that time. Yosef and all his brothers had passed on, and the new Pharoah forgot Yosef and all his accomplishments. We find out why Yosef's location was repeated in our Parsha.  We learn the depth of Yosef's holiness.
