I did not see that anyone signed up for today (nor do I see a new list up), anyway nossond, sorry in advance.
In Parshas Ki Sisa, as well as on a ta’anis, we read the passuk ?????, ??? ???-? ???? ??? ????, ??? ????? ???? ?????, ??? ???? ???? ????
R’ Yonasan Eibushits says that this passuk seems odd. We have Moshe davening that Hashem have rachamim on Klal Yisroel after the chet haegel. Why does he mention that Hashem took us out ??? ???? ???? ????? How does Moshe expect Hashem do show compassion? One does not mention all the good things A gave to B when asking A to forgive B. DOING SO WOULD JUST INFURIATE A MORE!!
So what was Moshe saying when he said ??? ???? ???? ????? He wasn’t talking about all the miracles Hashem provided for us, because obviously mentioning them would not assist us in receiving Hashem’s rachamim. Rather, Moshe was reminding Hashem that we were just on the 49th level of tumah. Moshe was saying to Hashem “What do you expect from them, look, you took them out ??? ???? ???? ????, because there was no other way!, they were 1 step away from the point of no return!. What else do you expect from such people? This was the argument of Moshe Rabbeinu.
There is a tremendous mussar here for us to learn. We need to be able to put aside our ego and our “thoughts of self” when trying to help people. We also need to recognize where they are coming from. May we be zoche to properly assist all those who seek our assistance.
