פרשת בא = אתה לא לבד

חז"ל מעירים, שבפסוק לא כתוב "לך" אל פרעה אלא "בא" אל פרעה. המפרשים מסבירים, כי "בא" משמע, שנלך ביחד, כדרך שהאדם אומר לחברו "בא" איתי. הקב"ה אמר למשה, כביכול: אינך…

להתפשר או לא??

להתפשר או לא?התורה מתארת את מערכת היחסים בין יוסף לאחיו. המצב כל כך גרוע, שברגע שיש לאחים אפשרות , הם זוממים לזרוק את יוסף לבור ולגזור עליו דין מוות. בעודו…

Beware of your dreams, they may come true…* In the four Torah readings that describe his life, Yosef was overwhelmed with emotion and bursts into tears. There are eight instances in which Yosef cries. Each case has its special meaning. We will focus on the tears at the end of Yoseph's life. Yosef met with his brothers after the burial of their father Yacob. This family meeting could have been a meeting Where his brothers showed appreciation, reconciliation, love, and understanding for all his actions on their behalf, but Yosef discovers that his brothers are afraid of him, and they believe he holds a grudge against them Despite everything he has done for them, they are not sure that he has forgiven them. It is then Yosef discovers the limits of power. He discovers to what extent the human connection, the personal connection, and the family connection have much more value and importance than power – both for the person himself and for all those around him. Yosef cries at this realization of the terrible price he paid for his dreams coming true and the way they came true. His dreams did come true, to some extent, but the tragedy remains just as real. The torn shards of the family were not completely repaired. Every person has dreams, we all dream about different subjects, some dream about fame or wealth or other good fortunes. Sometimes prayers seem to be answered and people get what they have long wanted. There is, at least for a while, great happiness and cause for celebration. Then, in one of life's great ironies, a dream come true turns into a nightmare. We dream and sometimes we make our dreams come true, but the price can sometimes be too expensive. Marriages crumble, families fall apart, and personal friendships end bitterly In our pursuit of wealth and power, we sometimes make our families suffer as a result. A person should always stop and examine whether, on the way to the realization of his dreams, there can be unexpected (negative) consequences that may put at risk his values and everything that is truly dear to him. When his dream finally is fulfilled Yosef cried tears of sadness for it was the last thing that Yosef wanted – not to be reconciled with his brothers!
