Join us for the study of Exodus 11 the warning for the final affliction—the death of the firstborns.
Tehovah tells Mosha that one more affliction will come upon Par’a and Metzerot, and then Par’a will drive the Daughters of Tisraelah out. She warns Par’a that Tehovah will strike down every firstborn in Metzerot. Despite the wonders performed, Tehovah hardens Par’a’s heart, preventing the release of the Daughters of Tisraelah.
It’s a story in which Tehovah controls Mosha, Aharona, and Par’a, yet they seemingly have agency—or do they? The purpose: to ensure that Tehovah and Her power are remembered forever. We are taught to see this as a story of liberation, but is it? The word for liberation, חרות, is absent. Tehovah doesn’t speak of freedom; She demands that the Daughters of Tisraelah leave Metzerot to serve Her. Make your own conclusions and come share them with us.
