Parshas Yisro: Laying the Foundation
from The Parsha Perspective · host Rabbi Shalom Yemini
Parshas Yisro: Laying the Foundation This week’s episode coincides with Tu B’Shvat, the New Year for Trees—a reminder that true growth begins from within. Our Parsha brings us to Matan Torah, where G-d revealed the Aseres HaDibros (Ten Commandments). But why does the very first word—"אָנֹכִי" ("I am")—come from the Egyptian language? What does this teach us about Torah, faith, and the unbreakable bond between G-d and the Jewish people? 🛡️ In honor of Eretz Yisroel – May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages in Gaza immediately. 🕯️ Dedicated in loving memory of: Edward Ben Efraim | Shlomo Ben Edward | Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia 🔗 Listen now: ParshaPerspective.com
