Vaera 5783: What’s in a Name?

Posted by Mike Feuer on January 19, 2023
Topics: Pardes from Jerusalem, Shemot (Exodus), VaEra

The parsha opens with the names of God, and that sets the stage for the revelation which comes through the plagues. This podcast touches how this dynamic expresses a deeper layer in the whole relationship between Creator and creation as it asks – what’s in a name?
