Vayikra 5786 - The Name That Defined Moshe

from Mussar HaTorah · host Aaron Benedict

Moshe Rabbeinu had ten names, each describing a different facet of his greatness. Yet the name we know him by wasn't divinely inspired - it came from an Egyptian princess who defied her father to pull a Hebrew baby from the Nile. Why would Hashem choose this name above all others to define the greatest prophet who ever lived? Rav Chaim Shmuelevitz reveals how a single act of courage planted something into Moshe's very essence - and how the same transformation is available to us. Discover the connection between Bisya's sacrifice, the small aleph in Vayikra, and what it really means to draw close to Hashem. This is a public episode.
