Shemos – Moshe’s Treatment
We begin the new calendar year with a new book, the book of Exodus. The Jewish nation – still a family – is in Egypt, and things go from bad to worse. Pharaoh torments the people, enslaves them, and embitters their lives with back breaking labor.

We begin the new calendar year with a new book, the book of Exodus. The Jewish nation – still a family – is in Egypt, and things go from bad to worse. Pharaoh torments the people, enslaves them, and embitters their lives with back breaking labor. He then implements a policy of infanticide. But a great light emerges: Moshe is born. The leader of the Jewish people — who will extricate us from Egypt and lead us into the wilderness, and convey the Torah to us, and shepherd us — is born and is raised in Pharaoh’s household. In this Parsha Podcast we go behind the scenes – we go to the backstage of the parsha and explore two interesting and topical elements of Moshe’s treatment: both how he was treated and how he treated others.
