Shemot - 2025

Chevre, this week’s parsha is Shemot (שְׁמוֹת֙). We start the book of Exodus or Shemot (Names). The book starts with a list of names of the tribes or families who were in Egypt. It has been noted by others several times this week that having a list of names is very much in this week’s news with the hostage deal being discussed. May all our hostages come home soon (including Hadar Goldin or Oron Shaul).
