Parashat Bo: Meaning of AMEN & Biggest Mitzvah

10 years ago

This week's parashah, parashah Bo is the continuation of the 10 plagues in Egypt sent by HaShem to punish the nation of Mitzrayim (Egypt) and the pharaoh for it's barbaric treatment of Am Yisrael. The last parashah covered 7 out of 10 of these plagues. Anti-Semitism is alive and well today. Just like what happened in Egypt; 70 years ago Hitler was doing the same thing. He was a charismatic leader that led the German masses to do his will of eliminating Jews in Europe. This was facilitated by his cult like book Mein Kampf that put his disgusting ideas on paper and sold by the millions.Even in our days after its republishing, 70 years later in 2015, it sold out on the first day and was still in demand. Every day after waking up we should ask ourselves if we are Moshe (who at every opportunity did Teshuva) or Pharaoh (who did not repent even after 10 plagues struck his country). https://www.evernote.com/shard/s33/sh/05adf23f-387c-41f5-9a13-5013b2682499/30c3b28b1264a003d7842b052ab890c9 To Support our KIRUV and Torah Teachings work please DONATE at www.BeEzratHaShem.org If you'd like to invite Rabbi Yaron Reuven to give a lecture at your synagogue, home or office please email Info@BeEzratHaShem.org Rabbi Reuven is based out of Florida but travels to give lectures to different groups.

Born in Netanya, Israel, Rabbi Yaron Reuven began his American Dream as a little boy, when his family immigrated to the United States. He went from a newspaper boy at the age of 10, to a well-known self-made Wall Street multimillionaire by the age of 23. During his time in Wall Street, he owned his own private brokerage firm, a hedge fund, and an international insurance agency. He was featured on CNBC, Bloomberg and Chinese NDTV due to his success in the financial industry. At age 26 he faced a 7-year battle for his life when a simple surgery went wrong. From that moment his life would never be the same. This moment marked the start of a series of miraculous events and an exciting pursuit of truth, ultimately resulting in Rabbi Reuven renouncing his lofty position and success in Wall Street, after 16 years, to become a full-time KIRUV rabbi. His Teshuva story is sure to catch the heart of every listener. Rabbi Reuven’s shiurim are in English and Hebrew. His classes are focused on spreading the truth and divinity of the Torah through MUSSAR, scientific proofs, and many other methods to reach each individual listener. Rabbi Reuven is the leading educator on the topic of wasting seed in the English language with over 100 videos about this topic published online. Rabbi Yaron Reuven is a proud member of the Igud HaRabbonim (The Rabbinical Alliance of America), a national rabbinic organization founded in 1942.
