Tirtza Parshas Miketz / Chanukah - A Shabbat.com Message

[Music] hello everyone it's dirty Chanukah Sameach to all families I hope you were enjoying this beautiful hug to be reminded that a sham supports his people to always win every battle but let's take a moment to go a little deep into this week's parsh on me kids Joseph's imprisonment finally ends when he interprets Pharaoh's dreams he appoints Yosef as governor of Egypt and gives him his wife Potiphar's daughter and they have two sons together as you may recall from the story famine is spread throughout the region and the only place that food can be obtained as in Egypt so your son's brothers go down to Egypt to purchase food and as they get there Yosef recognizes them immediately there's something very important that we can learn from Yusuf's attitude when he stands before Pharaoh to interpret the dreams when Pharaoh tells eosin that no one was able to understand his dreams Yosef replies back saying that the wisdom he had did not come from him but from Hashem alone Rashi says that Hashem words and uses mouth that would bring peace to Pharaoh's heart further on we read that Yosef not only interpreted the dreams of a future serious problem but also provided a very intelligent solution to the forcing famine Yosef could have simply interpreted the dreams to be released from prison but going one step further he presented to Pharaoh the solution that came to be the salvation to his family and ultimately to the people Rob Joseph's life we read about his trials and tribulations which mature in him and provided an awakening from the lobe to further on place and awaken him from above Hashem honored Yosef because in spite of all his difficulties he maintained his faith in God to its fullest and enabled him to bestow upon him the gift of leadership which was an essential prerequisite for God's plan for the redeeming of the Egyptian exile and the subsequent emergence of Israel as the people of God so made during this hot season we use our god-given tools to help others to enlighten others to walk the extra mile in to be carriers of her wisdom to the world Chanukah Sameach in shabbat shalom [Music]
