RAV SHLOMO CARLEBACH ON PARSHAS BESHALACH

There is a very beautiful passage in the bible. When we crossed the Red Sea we were singing ‘ZeKeliVe’anveihu’, this is my G-d and I make my G-d more beautiful, ‘ElokeiAviVa’aromemenhu’, the G-d of my father and I will make him high. And here I want you to open your hearts to the deepest depths. You know something friends, it’s a very high thing to believe in the G-d of your father, but it’s not necessarily a beautiful thing. It’s very high but not beautiful. Do you know what beauty is? Beauty is when you really find your G-d on your own. After this happenes, you connect it again to the G-d of your father, and then it is high and beautiful.
