Parshas Vayigash (57567)
by Mordechai Dolinsky

Yosef degraded his father and brothers by declaring them shepherds which were looked down upon and despised by the Egyptians for the purpose for them to settle in Goshen where they would be isolated from the Egyptian culture.  He was thus setting the standards and mindset of a model structure for their galus existence.

For us presently as the galus progresses this becomes progressively more difficult.  With the situation today being that there are no geographical Torah true oases. How aware we must be that so much of our mentality and way of life is infested and infected with anti Torah ideas, ideals and standards.  We must pray to Hashem for Divine assistance to free us from this and enable us to live a Torah-true life according to His Will.

Have a wonderful Shabbos.
