the Jewish people had made the Great
Escape no one had ever gotten out of
Egypt and through a series of the most
miraculous events in the history of the
world claw Israel managed to get out of
Egypt coming to a climax at Prius yams
of the splitting of the sea where the
Jewish people reached a level where even
a maidservant was able to point and say
this is my God and I will glorify him
Zach Haley vianvi Who and the pasta goes
on to say
they walked they went for three days
they did not find water
the gemara and Baba Kama
adafes interprets what does it mean they
went three days without water they went
three days without Torah ain't they
began to Rebel Without Torah fighting
the itsahara the Jewish people began to
rebel and was musakim
that a Jew never goes three days without
hearing from the Torah
asks
the great with
one of the great Torah pioneers of the
20th century agato who is not so well
known it's interesting when rip simha
Wasserman
parted from we know his father was the
primary disciple of
simcha you know when mashiach comes God
will not forget about any Jew even if
there's a Jew on the far-flung corner of
the world meshiach will not forget about
him and
was giving him his marching orders
devoted himself as a Torah Pioneer to
spread Torah to the uneducated and was
one of the first
makarivikem in the United States of
America
they went three days without water
they were 210 years without Torah in
mitzrayim and they never rebelled and
all of a sudden they leave Egypt and
they go three days without water without
Torah and all of a sudden they Rebel so
what happened during the 210 years in
Egypt
says
when they were in Egypt the Egyptians
brutalized us they beat us they tortured
us
and that reminded us who we were we
didn't forget our identity as the am
Hashem
but the moment the Jewish people tasted
freedom and liberty krus
a Jew cannot go three days without the
Torah to remind the Jew who we are and
what is our responsibility in this world
and the same case can be made for the
Jew in America today
perhaps
in other Generations when we were
persecuted when
we were running for our life
the dedication we had to have for the
Torah was not as critical as it is today
but in the United States of America
which is Medina said and we have our
freedom and we have our Liberty
that is a much greater threat to the
destiny of the Jewish people
unfortunately in our country today the
intermarriage rate is approximately 70
percent which means seven out of every
marriages that take place among our
people are intermarriages and even if in
our observant communities we are immune
to that but we are not immune to the
threat that the ideals and the values of
the outside world poses to us
and as important as Lima datura was to
our people throughout the generations
it was never as important as it is today
this is
210 years the Jewish people were able to
survive without rebelling in mits Ryan
three days of freedom and all of a
sudden the yet Sahara got the better of
us this is an important reminder of how
critical Torah is to our life and the
generation that we live in
we say it's
the Torah is a tree of life
to those who grab a hold of it with all
of their strength if we embrace the
Torah with all of our strength and all
of our energy and all of our emotion it
will be a tree of life and preserve us
until the great day of the coming of
mashiach may he come speedily in our
times
