Shabbat Vayigash 5772   Friday 4 Tevet 5772 - Dec. 30, 2011 Dear,    Weekly video   The weekly video was added on Tuesday to our youtube channel. If you are not subscribed yet, I highly recommend doing so. You will get instant updates when new videos are added, and not have to wait for the weekly newsletter to watch Harav Ginsburgh's class.          This week's video is titled, "Our father is still alive." (Click on the link to watch). When Joseph finally reveals himself to his brothers, he asked them, "Is our father still alive?" The sages explain they could not answer because they were frightened by his rebuke. Where is the rebuke in these words? Why is Joseph's rebuke compared to God's rebuke to each and every one of us?

MENDY MARKOWITZ MELANIE and TOV MARMER MAKE YOUR RESERVATIONS ONLINE NOW      The drama between Yosef and his brothers reaches its climax at the beginning of our Parsha and is immediately resolved: "And Yehudah drew near to him and said: Please, my lord..." (xliv, 14). Rashi explains "that Yehudah spoke harshly to Yosef. He said to him, if you anger me I will kill you along with your master. Immediately following this talk, "And Yosef could not refrain himself before all those standing before him, and he called: Remove every person from me. And no-one stood with him when Yosef made himself known to his brothers" (xlv, 1).

"I am Yosef" (Genesis 45:3) Tevet 3, 5772/December 29, 2011 The French poet, Arthur Rimbaud, (1854-1891), said the following: "Je est un autre" - "I is an other." This observation, "I is an other," artfully encapsulates the message and moral of our current Torah reading, Vayigash. It is in this Torah reading that Yosef and his brothers nearly come to a confrontation concerning the well-being of the youngest brother, Binyamin. Yosef, of course, knows that he is dealing with his brothers. This was first established in their earlier meeting, "And Yosef saw his brothers, and he recognized them, but he made himself a stranger to them... " (ibid 42:7) As of the opening moments of parashat Vayigash, then, the brothers do not know that they are dealing with Yosef. They do not yet recognize him, but they have long recognized the fact that they did a terrible deed when they sold their brother into slavery.

In Yosef's revelation to his brothers, he expresses how it was the Hand of Elohim on him that brought him to Egypt.  And the reason?

Bereshith 45:7 But Elohim sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

Parshas Vayigash Maintaining Strong Family Bonds As the story of Yosef and his brothers unfolds and reaches its climactic end in this week’s parsha, we are left with the bewildering sense that there is no absolute right or wrong in the unfolding tale. Yosef is judged wrong in his original behavior towards his brothers in bringing inaccurate tales regarding them to their father. The brothers are judged wrong in casting him in a pit and thereafter selling him into slavery.

His brothers were in shock when Yosef said "I am Yosef," thereby removing from their eyes the blinders preventing them from seeing G-d's presence in every moment and in every action. So startled were they that they could not respond, they could not comprehend. Their souls left them. How much greater would be the shock were G-d to reveal His presence to us in one single moment. Therefore He reveals His great light one glimpse at a time, even as the Geula redemption marches ever forward.
