Parshat Va'yigash - Summary

In this week's parsha, Va'yigash, we read about the reunion of Joseph and his brothers. After many years of separation and misunderstandings, the brothers finally come face to face with the brother they had sold into slavery.

But before we get to that heartwarming moment, let's take a moment to consider the backdrop of this story. You see, the brothers had originally sold Joseph into slavery out of jealousy and resentment. They had been envious of the special treatment Joseph received from their father, Jacob, and they had allowed their envy to cloud their judgment and lead them down a destructive path.

And as a result of their actions, the entire family had suffered. Jacob, their father, had been devastated by the loss of his beloved son, and the brothers had been wracked with guilt for their part in the deed. They had tried to cover up their crime by dipping Joseph's cloak in blood and presenting it to Jacob as proof of his death, but their deception was eventually revealed.

Now, you might be thinking, how could the brothers have been so cruel to their own flesh and blood? It's a question that has puzzled commentators for centuries. But perhaps the answer lies in the complex and fraught relationships that can exist within families. Siblings can be fiercely competitive, and it's not uncommon for old rivalries and resentments to boil to the surface.

But despite all of this, when Joseph finally reveals himself to his brothers, he does not seek revenge or retribution. Instead, he forgives them and offers them a way to make amends. This teaches us a powerful lesson about the importance of forgiveness and the transformative power it can have on our relationships.

It's worth noting that Joseph's ability to forgive his brothers was not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of his own inner strength and maturity. He had risen to the top of Pharaoh's court, becoming a powerful and respected figure in his own right. And yet, despite all that he had achieved, he did not let his success go to his head. He remained humble and gracious, always remembering where he came from and the role that his brothers had played in his journey.

Now, speaking of Pharaoh, let's not forget about the role that he played in all of this. You see, Pharaoh was the one who ultimately elevated Joseph to the position of viceroy, making him the second most powerful man in Egypt. This was no small feat, considering that Joseph was a foreigner and a slave. But Pharaoh saw something in Joseph that he respected and admired, and he recognized his potential to lead and serve the Egyptian people.

This serves as a reminder that no matter where we come from or what challenges we face, we all have the potential to achieve great things. With hard work, determination, and a little bit of luck, anything is possible. And sometimes, it takes someone from the outside - someone with a fresh perspective and new ideas - to shake things up and bring about positive change.

But it's not just about individual achievement. As Joseph's story shows, our actions have far-reaching consequences, and we have the power to either bless or curse those around us. By choosing to forgive his brothers, Joseph was able to heal the rift in his family and bring about a greater sense of unity and harmony. And by using his position of power to help others, he was able to make a difference in the lives of countless people.

So, in conclusion, the parsha of Va'yigash teaches us about the transformative power of forgiveness, the complexity of family dynamics, and the potential for personal growth and achievement. It reminds us that we all have the ability to make a positive impact in the world, and that it is important to take responsibility for our actions and strive to make amends when we have caused harm to others. It also underscores the importance of humility and graciousness, and the role that these qualities can play in helping us to build strong relationships and create a more harmonious world.

May we all strive to embody these lessons in our own lives, and may we find the strength and courage to forgive those who have wronged us, just as Joseph did.

5th Commandments  

Randy Coralat 

[Honor your Father and your Mother] 

What kinds of father/mother on earth we have today.? That God in trusted us! 

Since we are child or we are young today! we must remember without our father&mother. We don't borned on Earth. & experience on Earth.

 How God. Created the whole Universe. 

And how God uses His power on Earth. 

There's two kinds of Father that God in trusted to us to care our life on Earth. 

 1. Careful father. 2. Careless father. 

Both 1 or 2 we must accept & honor our father&mother because God had a reason why God in trusted our father&mother in our life.? 

Some childrens experience # 2. Careless father. 

Some says it's hard to say the God of heaven so good to me! Because my father careless to me and my life was broken and I don't have anything like other have. If God loves me! Why my father on earth doesn't love me and give me anything I want.? 

 We must consider when God chosen us to being a leader. the Invisible God who tested our hearts, 

 He makes us great testimony to bring impact to testify to the broken hearted people. 

 So that we don't give up and we must take courage to steadfast to read the Scriptures.  

 Toda rabah Yahweh kadosh. 😊🙏
