Welcome to this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion) ...
Please read with us the portion of Torah that will be read in synagogues around the
world during this week’s Shabbat (Saturday) service. We know you will be blessed !
Because this Shabbat is the first of four special Shabbats before Passover,
a special reading is added.
MISHPATIM (Laws)
Exodus 21:1–24:18; Jeremiah 34:8–22, 33:25–26; Luke 7:1–8:3
Maftir: Exodus 30:11–16
“These are the ordinances [mishpatim הַמִּשְׁפָּטִים] that you are to set before them.” (Exodus 21:1)
In last week’s portion of Scripture, Israel received the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai.
This week, God gives specific legislation - laws called mishpatim, which means judgments.
These are intended to guide the daily lives of His holy nation in justice and righteousness.
Once We Were Slaves ...
“When you acquire a Jewish bondsman, for six years he shall work and in the seventh year he shall go free...” (Exodus 21:2) Since the Israelites had just been released from slavery, the first of God’s mishpatim deal with servants and slaves. According to the rabbis, the six years represent the 6,000 years that we will work to serve the Lord. The seventh year of freedom represents the Messianic age—the thousand years when we will rule and reign from Jerusalem with Messiah, who will sit on the Throne of His father David.
Several verses later in this passage, the painful experiences of the Israelites in Egypt are highlighted again,
this time to create empathy for the foreigner. God commands the Israelites that foreigners be treated with kindness and respect.
“You shall neither mistreat a stranger nor oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.” (Exodus 22:21)
In total, Parasha Mishpatim contains 53 mitzvot (commands)—23 imperative commandments and 30 prohibitions. This series of laws, also called “The Covenant Code” by some Bible scholars, specify penalties for various violent crimes such as murder, kidnapping, and assault. Pre-meditated murder, kidnapping and striking or even cursing a parent all carry the death penalty.
“And he who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.” (Exodus 21:17)
Laws were also given regarding how to make reparation for assault and injuries caused by animals,
as well as damage to crops or livestock. They prohibit seduction of virgins, the practice of sorcery,
bestiality, idolatry and mistreating the disadvantaged of society.
Infractions of these laws often carry the severest of penalties
- death by stoning, since God wanted to keep peace and order within the camp.
But it is more than that. God has genuine concern for justice and the well-being of the individual.
For instance, if a widow or fatherless child is to cry out to God because of someone’s ill treatment
of them, God promises He will pour out His fierce wrath upon their oppressor and kill them so that
their wives would be widows and their children fatherless. (Exodus 22:22–24) !!!

The article below is by a mysterious guy named Saker, whose input is invaluable in decifering what is happening in Russia and Ukraine. I am in contact with some of Saker's translators and surmise that I have, via them, some input to him. I recently sent my latest commentary, regarding Russia and China, to an influential person in that group, who described it as a "brilliant analysis" and I strongly suspect he forwarded it to others in the group and, judging by what Saker writes here, it most likely landed in Saker's lap. I will say no more.
