Our Parsha this Shabbos is Parashas Yisro.
In this Parsha, Yisro, who was Moshe's Father-In-Law and also a priest of Midyan, who had tried all the religions of the World,heard of all the Wonders that HaShem Had Performed for us :- the Plagues of Egypt, the freeing of our people from slavery (an unheard of thing that anyone could just leave Egypt, let alone a nation under slavery of hundreds of thousands ,for no one left the borders of Egypt once they came to live there ), the Splitting of the Sea and now, the miracle of the Sun standing still in the sky at the beating of Amalek, an ally of the Midyanim and enemy of the Jews.
Yisro, came to realize that our G-D , the G-D of the Jewish People, is The One True and Only G-D , while all other things are false. This was a true Kiddush HaShem that Yisro performed , in coming to this realization,for this proved to all the World, that all other beliefs and religions are man made, while HaShem and His Torah and Laws is the Only Truth there is .
So Yisro came with Tzipporah, Moshe's Wife and children to meet Moshe and the people in the Wilderness of Sinai .
To be able to come into the camp where Moshe was,Yisro , his father in law , had to shoot an arrow with a note into the Clouds of Glory that surrounded and protected the Jewish Camp , in order to get Moshe's attention.The note fell at Moshe's feet and Yisro was admitted. Moshe told of all the Wonders HaShem had performed for our people and Yisro became the first Ger Tzeddek - Righteous Convert, permitted by HaShem Himself.
It is in Yisro's Sedra, that the Great Happening of HaShem Coming Down on Mount Sinai to Show Himself to the people, is mentioned.This shows how HaShem loves those who come to the right path of Torah and Belief in the One True G-D .
HaShem Loves the Righteous Ger.
Yisro then notices how Moshe stands all day, judging the people and advises Moshe on delegating to others, which is agreed upon by HaShem .
HaShem informs Moshe of how HaShem will Come Down with Heaven , to meet the people within three days and that they should prepare and purify themselves.Which is What they do.
When HaShem Comes down to meet the people on the Sixth of Sivan, they (the Jews ) all agree to 'Na'aseh Ve Nishma,' to - Do and then to Listen or Hear,' for G-D is G-D and He must be trusted without question, to do what He asks before questioning. HaShem lifted up the Mountain and held it above the people and they realized the importance of keeping the Torah. That it was the very life they were to live and life was of no value, without Following HaShem and His Torah.
It is then that HaShem Spoke in His Voice as the Sounding of a Great and Mighty Shofar and His First Two of the Ten Commandments were uttered directly.His Voice was so Powerful that it caused the souls of the people to leave their bodies and they had to be revived. The World at the time stood in awe as those around who asked what was happening , were answered,' HaShem is Giving Hiss Torah to His People.' Moshe was Given the Holy Ten Commandments, the Laws to stand for all time , on two Tablets of Stone , written miraculously by HaShem's Finger, where the letters 'like a carved out Hebrew Samech that is round , floated in the air within the Tablets themselves. The First Five Commandments were between HaShem and Man and the last Five Commandments were between Man and his fellow.
Our Torah tells us that every day, HaShem's Voice Goes out from Chorev, Telling us to Keep the Torah.
HaShem's Voice can never be withheld. Once HaShem Speaks, nothing can stop the sound or its waves , for it can penetrate solid stone as if it was air. This means that HaShem's Voice doesn't have an echo, for nothing can make it's sound bounce back. It just keeps on going, in place and in time. This means that when HaShem Spoke then, His Voice continues through Creation and the Universes and nothing stops it.This means that HaShem's Voice is still coming at us today , through time . HaShem is Timeless. HaShem's Holy Torah is Timeless. There will only be One Torah and HaShem's Laws will continue Eternally Forever and Ever and Ever .
HaShem's Laws are as Alive Today as they were then at Mount Sinai for His Words are Never-Ending and Continue Forever .
It is so vital for life and Creation , that all Creation abides by His Laws and follows HaShem Only .
His Torah is in all His Creation and is the Pathway to HaShem .
Though He gave His Ten Commandments then, His Laws are still being Spoken by Him Today from back then and will continue into the future.
The Ten Commandments were a new opportunity to keep Creation as HaShem intended , after we, as human people went off the rails . This is proven by the fact that as there were Ten Commandments, so were there Ten Pronouncements by HaShem at the Beginning, when HaShem Created Creation .
Every day HaShem Gives us life, is an opportunity to Keep His Torah and Keep Creation as He Intended. It is up to us. It always has been.
So let us open ourselves and listen, for HaShem's Voice has always been there from Sinai till today and beyond. May this Whole World come to the realization of the One True G-D , HaShem Hakadosh Baruch Hu and so, in keeping HaShem's Commandments,may we then bring on the Final Redemption , where we can sit eternally under the Holy Light of HaShem.
With Sweetest Love to HaShem , I wish HaShem with love, a Beautiful Sweet Shabbos Kodesh with love and to all, a beautiful sweet Shabbos Kodesh with love.
