| | Message 1-22-11 Yitro-Jethro (Abundance) Exodus 18:1-20:23 Isaiah 6:1-7:6, 9:6-7 (5-6)
Introduction With this Parashah, we have reached the pivotal moment in the entire Torah, the Revelation at Sinai, the moment in which God’s Resence is made manifest to the Israelites. With the Matan Torah/the Giving of the Torah at Sinai, the covenant is sealed.
This awesome event marks the first time that “God’s redemptive acts on Israel’s behalf require a reciprocal response on the part of Israel.” Israel is no longer to be a passive group of slave/ex-slaves, buffeted by the waves of history and the will of the Eternal. They must weld themselves into a community and act in accordance with the agreement forged in flame and thunder at Mount Sinai.
The Haftarah parallels the communal revelation at Sinai with a more personal revelation experienced by the prophet Isaiah. Where God comes down to the people in the Torah portion, Isaiah is brought up to the throne of the Almighty. His “unclean lips” are purified by a seraph holding a red-hot coal to them (perhaps an echo of the “uncircumcised lips” of Moses), and he is sent back to earth to prophesy against the excesses of the Davidic line, much as Moses is sent to Pharaoh as the vehicle by which the Israelites will be liberated from Egypt.
