MISHPATIM Part 4

Shalom, Shalom. We continue our focus upon the PARASHAT MISHPATIM by contemplating the instructions given to the NAVI MOSHE in the establishment of the BRIT (covenant) between HASHEM and BENI YISRAEL. The instructions disclosed that the NAVI MOSHE was to approach HASHEM alone, and the people were not to go up with him. No doubt, this was based upon their request, it is written, “They said to Moses, You speak to us and we shall hear; let God not speak to us lest we die.” (Exodus 20:16) It is evident from this request that BENEI YISRAEL lacked the MOTIVATION to pursue TRUTH, yea, the desire to experience the FREEDOM that is the result of the PURSUIT, but there was a lack of an IMPETUS that would cause them to SEEK TRUTH regardless to the PRICE.

The NAVI MALACHI discloses that this event is destined to repeat itself, he wrote, “Behold, I am sending My messenger, and he will clear a path before Me; suddenly the Lord Whom you seek will come to His Sanctuary, and the messenger of the covenant for whom you yearn, behold he comes, says HASHEM, Master of Legions.” (Malachi 3:1) In this prophetic utterance, it is disclosed that just as the NAVI MOSHE came as a messenger of the BRIT, there will be another MESSENGER of the BRIT that will come. It goes on to reveal that the coming of the MESSENGER of the BRIT is yearned for. No doubt, this is based upon the lack of an IMPETUS to pursue TRUTH among BENEI YISRAEL. Once again it is not that there is not a desire for TRUTH, but rather the tremendous sacrifice which is required to experience an EPIPHANY is not there. Could it be that the PURSUIT of that which is known outweighs that which is UNKNOWN? Now is the TIME for NEW REVELATION that will give rise to the experience of MAXIMIZING the HIDDEN UNLIMITED POTENTIAL that is LATENT WITHIN and MAKE a QUANTUM LEAP into LIFE WITHOUT END.
