it's time for rabbi mankiewicz weekly
Torah lesson a place where life's most
difficult questions are answered here
with his spiritual perspective and
insight
rabbi Mingo it welcome to this week's
Torah portion this week is precious
Matos and masai and the question of the
week is how can we be inspired to
continue to grow so in this week's Torah
portion the second of the two precious
Moscati the Torah portion begins these
are the journeys of the Jewish people
journeys plural that left Egypt the
question is asked they left Egypt in one
journey - they didn't get to their
promised land until they went through 42
journeys and ultimately again that's
when they we see the final they came to
the final destination but the fact that
in the first journey Dale Ephesians so
why is it called
they went out plural Phoenicia and the
Rebbe explains because until a person
doesn't achieve and reach his final
destination they are still leaving the
first year the first the first place so
even though they left Egypt in the first
year in the first journey in the first
travel but since they went through
another one another one told 42 travels
till they came to the ultimate
destination they are still leaving Egypt
so in other words as long as you're not
your final destination the journey is
still going on even though you left the
previous place and even though you grew
out of it but if you have a mission and
a vision and you want to get to the
ultimate destination as long as you're
not there you still in a certain level
never left the first journey so to
answer the question how can we be
inspired to continue to grow to remember
the first journey of the Jewish people
when they left Egypt as long as we're
not at the ultimate destination with the
revelation of Messiah
we still need to grow and we still need
to journey out from our original first
destination this week's Torah lesson is
a memory of Barack and I relayed and
Ben Yosef may their souls the
elevator to the Torah that we're
studying in their memory I'd like to
dedicate and wish a special model of my
