Dear friends — We hope you enjoy this sneak preview of the soon-to-be published commentary of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach on Sefer Shmot. Please make sure to share this with all those who you think would appreciate it.
Those That Change, Those That Don’t
He heard of the splitting of the Red Sea and the war with Amalek (Rashi on Sh’mos 18:1)
There are people in the world who never change. You can show them they are wrong but they just don’t care. There are those who can see the greatest tragedy in the world and not become one ounce deeper. G-d can also show them the greatest joy in the world, and nothing about their essence is touched or changed.
Then there are people, whatever happens to them touches them so deep, they become different people. I don’t mean that you can’t recognize them, but something happened to them on the inside.
Rashi says that after Yisro heard of the crossing of the Red Sea and about the war with Amalek, he decided he has to come and be with his son-in-law Moshe. What was it that touched him so deep?
