BESHALACH Part 3

Shalom, Shalom. We continue our focus upon the PARASHAT BESHALACH by contemplating “The Song of the Sea” sung by the NAVI MOSHE and BENEI YISRAEL after the DIVINE DESTRUCTION of the army of PHARAOH being drowned in the SEA of REEDS. The HARMONIC RESPONSE of SINGING to HASHEM will prove to be a MECHANIC employed by the NEVIIM (prophets) to experience the revelations of G-d.

PROPHECY may be described as a revelation of the FINISHED WORKS of G-d, yea, HASHEM finishes a CREATED THING first, then squeezes it down into SEED FORM and appoints a period in TIME and SPACE when it is to begin its UNFOLDMENT. This EMET is illustrated in the following passage found in TORAH. It is written, “These are the products of the heavens and the earth when they were created on the day that HASHEM God made earth and heaven - now all the tress of the field were not yet on the earth and all the herb of the field had not yet sprouted…” (Genesis 1:4,5a) In this disclosure, it is revealed that G-d created the TREES and the HERBS first, then squeezed them down into SEED FORM before they SPROUTED. Thus HASHEM finishes a THING FIRST, squeezes it down into SEED FORM and appoints a PLACE and TIME when it is to SPROUT, i.e. begin its UNFOLDMENT. A PROPHECY is a revelation of a FINISHED WORK of G-d that is about to begin its UNFOLDMENT in a PREDETERMINED PLACE and TIME.

As aforementioned, the SONG that was SUNG to HASHEM proves to be a MECHANIC that is employed in order to enable the SEER (prophet) to behold a finished WORK of G-d. As NAVI Moshe and BENEI YISRAEL SUNG to HASHEM concerning the VICTORY over the army of PHARAOH, new LYRICS came to them disclosing what would occur in the FUTURE concerning the chieftains of EDOM, the power of MOAB and the dwellers of CANAAN.  Indeed the future of these NATIONS were FINISHED WORKS that would occur in a PREDETERMINED PLACE at a PREDETERMINED TIME. The REVELATION of these FINISHED WORKS had to be SEEN as well as ANNOUNCED for it is written, “For the Lord HASHEM/ELOHIM will not do anything unless He has revealed His secret to His servants the prophets.” (Amos 3:7) There is a NEW SONG in the air, disclosing the FINISHED WORK of LIFE without END, about to BEGIN.
