Episode Synopsis
Parsha Shiur Shemos 2025
Moshe and Aaron communicate Hashem’s words to Pharaoh: ‘Let My People Go.’ Pharaoh insists that the Jews continue to produce the same quota of bricks as ‘yesterday and the day before’ despite them not being provided with straw. Pharaoh cries: ‘Let them work harder… and let them not regard lying words.’
What is the meaning of Pharaoh’s reaction?
The Baal Haturim draws a fascinating parallel between the way the Egyptians treated the Jews and the way the Jews treated Ruth.
