The Smiting of MIdnight
from Breslov Therapy · host Meir Elkabas
In Parshat Bo, the smiting of the firstborn at midnight reveals a deep spiritual principle about how redemption emerges from darkness itself. Rebbe Nachman and Reb Noson explain that midnight represents the merging of opposites—judgment and compassion, concealment and revelation—where the Infinite Light begins to shine even though the world still appears dark. Moshe Rabbeinu’s use of the word 'ka'chatzot points to the Keter, the gateway through which this light enters, teaching that apparent suffering and setbacks are not punishment but preparation. When a person responds to difficulty with emunah, bitachon, and simcha, mishpat itself becomes tzedek, and the darkest moment becomes the turning point for salvation. This lesson applies not only to the Exodus but to every personal exile, reminding us that joy and faith are the key to transforming darkness into redemption.This class is based on Likutey Moharan lesson 24.
