THE ALTER on THE PARSHA
Adapted from Sefer Ohr HaTzafun by Rabbi Eliezer Grunberg
PARSHAS Beshalach 5769
??? ????
The Egyptians had oppressed the Jewish people for many years. They clearly saw the Hand of
Hashem in ways that we could never imagine and they still did not repent. Although Hashem was punishing them for their evil behavior, He took no pleasure in their downfall – the Egyptians were also His creations and though He punished them with death they were still His children. Consequently he would not permit the daily praise to be sung. Hashem even questioned the angels for considering singing while they were drowning.
Yam Suf, punishing them with death for their evil actions against the Jewish people. Yet, in the midst of His wrath, Hashem was still concerned for these wicked people. They were entitled to a proper burial and they received it.
