Parshas Vayechi 5777
by Mordechai Dolinsky
I wqould like to share a striking thought. Rashi bringws the “shibud”, suffering, imposed by the Egyptians started even in the lifetime of Yosef. We see it was such a pRiority for Yaalov not the be buried in Egypt. It was always difficult to understand his extremity in this. Mitzrayim turned out to be such a wicked nation as revealed by our terrible suffering. Yaakov didn’t want his body in a place of such horrible wickedness.
Have a wonderful Shabbos.
