This Torah portion (parashah) begins a new book–Bamidbar (Numbers) 1:1-4:20. The foundation of this book is the counting of the nation of Israel as commanded by Hashem to Moshe and Aharon.
But this parashah comes to teach us much more than about the counting. It is also about how to discover for yourself, today, your mission that Hashem has for you in this life.
On erev shabbat January 19, 2007, we looked at Parashah V’eira in terms of how the parashah teaches that Hashem punishes and disciplines those He loves. Open your Bibles to Exodus chapter 8 and join us by clicking here to listen!
