Pharaoh’s Night During Makkos Bechoros

This Torah class is brought to you by Torahanytime.com

In this week's par should we find the Rashi that has one word of commentary, but it carries tremendous significance.

During the plague of Makas Bahair as the Posaic says by Yakan Pari Laila, Pari got up in the middle of the night

and Rashi adds one word of analysis, mimitosa, from his bed.

And this is strange. We're else with Pari beginning up from.

His cow, from his recliner, of course from his bed.

What is Rashi adding by telling us mimitosa that Pari got up from his bed?

In the Katsukareb he says, Rashi is teaching us the extent of Pari's arrogance.

He says, is Pari out of his mind? Pari himself is a firstborn.

He has a firstborn son who he hopes will succeed in one day.

He has a country with tens of thousands of Bahaira.

And so far, Moshe Rabbenu is nine for nine.

His batting average is 1,000.

Every plague he forecasted came true.

Now he tells Pari, Khatsoysa Laila, at midnight,

who may is called Baharba Erzmitsaram.

Every firstborn in Egypt will be killed.

And Moshe has always been right. He's been perfect with his predictions.

Pari may have been pretending to keep up this charade until now,

but at this point, we would expect him to show some concern, at least break a sweat.

Like many of the earlier plagues, the palace will no longer provide refuge for Makas Bahaira.

So how did he have the goal?

To get into pajamas, turn off his phone and go to sleep.

Who could sleep on a night like this?

You would think he would be at the negotiating table all night with Moshe and Aharan,

talk to his lawyers and advisors, and try to get a stay of execution for his country.

And yet, Rashi tells us Mimi Tossai.

He arose from his bed. He had the hutspa to ignore everything and go to sleep.

The only thing that interrupted his sleep were the screams and the wails from the Egyptians,

mourning their losses.

Pari had to get out of bed to inquire what was happening.

So how can a person go to bed on a night like this after nine plagues,

having come true exactly as forecasted?

Says the Kalskarebi.

Pari was the ultimate heretic. He was an authentic cipher.

They say there are no atheists in the faxal,

but Pari remains steadfast in his denial, even as death and chaos swirled all around him.

Pari was a cipher down to the last minute.

I'm going to bed and nothing's going to happen.

What happened before were only freaks of nature.

The real cipher goes to bed on a night of Makas Bahairas.

Pari said, I'm going to fight this thing to the bitter end.

Said the Kalskare, the magnitude of Pari's ego and arrogance is what Rashi is teaching us when he said Mimi Tossai.

The antithesis of this Mida was Abram Avino.

On the day of that cave, the Deterra tells us that Yashkaim Abram Babaiker

and Abram arose early in the morning to sacrifice his son.

And the question is, what novelty is the Deterra teaching us that Abram awoke early in the morning?

Abram Davind Viseken, he was the one that established the field of shakras.

He personified the ultimate shakras by Davining at the earliest time possible.

So, of course, he woke up early on the day of the Akeda because he arose early every day.

And the reason why the Pasek says, Viseken, Abram Babaiker,

the novelty wasn't that he woke early on that day.

The hiddish was that he was able to go to sleep the night before.

Imagine if they tell someone that he must slaughter his only son tomorrow.

That person would be so devastated and distraught that he would not have the equanimity and peace of mind to go to sleep.

He would be up all night and do all he can to try to save his son from execution.

However, for Abram, with his tremendous faith in trust in Hashem, it was just another day at the office.

Abram reasoned, yesterday the will of Hashem was to teach my son, Torah and Mitzvahs.

Today Hashem's will is for me to sacrifice my son.

There's no reason for worry. I'm doing the rats in Hashem.

And as long as I'm doing the will of the Almighty, it will all work out for the best.

Bilam Arasha was a protégé of Pari.

He also woke up early to curse call Israel.

Demission in the voice equates Abram and Bilam as paradoxical ideologies.

Both go to sleep at night, one as a cipher and the other as the greatest maman.

Vajashkim Abram Babaiker, Abram Vino teaches us,

being Botech Bashem is a guaranteed recipe for a peaceful night's sleep.

And now we know.

Have a wonderful day.
