Rabbi Chaim Richman

The first Torah portion which begins the book of Shemot, known as the Book of Exodus, chronicles the transition of Jacob’s descendants from a family of individuals into a nation. The Israelites are cruelly enslaved and a government-sponsored death sentence is decreed on their sons. It is on to this scene that Moshe, the redeemer of Israel, is introduced. Who is Moshe, and what made him what he became – a man who had a closer relationship with the Al-mighty than any other human being? In Hebrew, this book of Exodus is known as Shemot, the Book of Names. There is a great lesson here: We learn about Moshe by name, and we learn about G-d Himself by name….but it is our own names that are waiting to be found in the Torah, and they beckon to us to reveal them and illuminate our souls.
