- The liminal parasha between פקידה and its impact and “failure” and achieved (though as yet unactualized) גאולה sets out to create the nursery for גאולה, its קן. Language reflects the קן and this is its power: not the persuasive or conscious communicative level which is relatively mechanical.
(MY) We discover that וארא is the threshold פרשה providing for the transference between the original פקידה (which was doomed to be בעלמא) and the ultimate גאולה in the coming פרשה at its nature, our פרשת וארא is a פרשה of דבור; in which all mechanics are shunned, even the mechanics of תשובה כתריס – and even, most shockingly, the mechanics of שמיעה itself! Because to be able to be שומע on logically is no different than being forced to do something on a mechanical level to save the country from breaking down שמיעה אני אקשה את לב פרעה means to make שמיעה responsive on a different level – that level is the level of ברית!
It turns out that זכרתי את בריתי is the very definition of כי אני הש"ם וידעתם !וידעו מצרים עי אני הש"ם, למען תדע כי אני הש"ם, משה has to learn מצרים has to learn ישראל has to learn that the nature of מעשה בראשית is that it is achieved from ברית from the beginning – which means it is all אמונה which means it is all One big Love affairרבבה כצמח השדה ,זכרתי את בריתי, אמונה מעשה חולדה ובור – מעשה בראשית is mutual,
All elements of ראשית are not simply ideas but the way in which as רבנו בחיי points out קן itself is not something that is just made הש"ם בחכמה יסד ארץ but is the expression of אין itself! It is not something that follows בריאה it is something that creates בריאה!  Everything we have to do with, to the extent not mechanical it is אמונה and vv. if it is something you have been persuaded of intellectually, that itself is mechanical and reduced to התו והתעללות either something is complete and it is real You Freedom and גאולה, or it is an idea and mechanical and bound to be turned into laughingstock and failure
Says הקב"ה therefore your job is only to create the קן – and that creation is only through דבור therefore my שבועה itself which is also דבור is there to provide for that possibility ואזכור את בריתי so in setting up the שבועה in the beginning it becomes clear and the norm; ישראל מאמינים בני מאמינים – if they do not listen now then good good they shouldn’t listen they should only listen when they can hear and when it is them completely– פרעה doesn’t listen now good! Good that you don’t listen because you do not fully understand it now! Now it is time to talk – and eventually when the כה comes around this will turn as much an instantaneous reversal into a real world just as in Churchill’s time of aloneness became suddenly the way that every common English Joe switched from being a pacifier to living blood sweat and tears.
