REINSTATE LTC TERRY LARKIN !
http://conpats.blogspot.com/
Welcome to this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion), which is called Beshalach (When He Let Go).
We know you will be blessed as you follow along with us in this
portion of Torah that will be read in synagogues around the world
during the Shabbat (Saturday) service. Enjoy !
In last week’s study, after the last and most devastating of the Ten Plagues (Death of the Firstborn),
Pharaoh finally relented in letting the Israelites go free.
This week, however, in Parasha Beshalach, Pharaoh changes his mind and races after them to bring them back into slavery.
Thinking they are lost in the wilderness, Pharaoh seemingly traps them against the Red Sea.
There is no escape. But God miraculously splits the waters so that His people pass through on dry land,
while the Egyptians drown behind them.

Weekly Torah Portion: Beshalach
Post-parting of the Sea of Reeds depression nags the children of Israel, as they question whether G-d is still with them, just days after the greatest miracle in history leaves them giddy with prophecy. The cure, they learn, is not in the reliving of past heights, but in embracing the day, with all its bitter-sweet reality.
Beshalach (Exodus 13:17 - 17:16)
Parashat Beshalach is read on Shabbat:

Why Jews Have a New Years Day for Trees
Rabbi Tuly Weisz explains the Biblical significance of the Tu B'Shvat holiday. Though not found in the Bible, Tu B'Shvat has important ramifications for agricultural based laws. For example, one may not eat the fruit of a tree during its first three years, and in the fourth year the fruit must be taken to Jerusalem. But how does one calculate what year it is for the tree? Watch this great explanation, and then join the fun by planting your own tree in Israel!

Bill Targeting Legal Immigration Could Save $1.7 Trillion
Experts contend reducing low-skill, low-education chain migration could also boost wages
by Brendan Kirby - PoliZette
A bill offered by a pair of Senate Republicans this week to reduce immigration could save taxpayers $1.7 trillion, according to back-of-the-envelope calculations by a scholar at The Heritage Foundation. The sponsors of the bill, Sens. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and David Perdue (R-Ga.), have not estimated the fiscal impact of the proposal. But they cite models projecting that the result of eliminating an immigration diversity visa program and prohibiting new citizens from sponsoring their extended family members would reduce legal immigration by about 4.3 million people over the first 10 years.

INTO THE FRAY: Martin Sherman vs Caroline Glick – on Sovereignty
by Martin Sherman
Any initiative to apply Jewish sovereignty to Judea-Samaria without a clear plan for dramatic reduction of its Arab population will imperil Jewish sovereignty over all territory west of the Jordan. “One might expect that any support for a single state among Israeli Jews would come from the far Left… Recently, proposals to grant Israeli citizenship to Palestinians in the West Bank, including the right to vote for the Knesset, have emerged from a surprising direction: right-wing stalwarts… We should watch how this debate develop…and encourage it carefully”. – Ali Abunimah, “Israeli Right embracing one-state?” Al Jazeera. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.– An aphorism of uncertain origins, sometimes attributed to Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) As reluctant recognition of the futility of further pursuit of the “two-states-for-two-people” principle begins to dawn on growing circles of its erstwhile proponents, numerous alternative policy proposals are emerging in the public discourse.

Then it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines,
although that was near; for God said, 'Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt.
Exodus 13:17
Shabbat Shalom - Parasha Beshalach - When He Let Go - Tu B'Shvat !!!
Shabbat
Shalom
Welcome to this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion), which is
called Beshalach (When
He Let Go).
This is 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 as you read
along today. Enjoy!
Beshalach (When He Let
Go)
Exodus 13:17–17:16; Judges 4:4–5:31, Ashk.
(Judges 5:1–31, Seph.); 2 Peter 1
“Then it came to pass, when
Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by
way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near;
for God said, 'Lest perhaps the people change their minds
when they see war, and return to Egypt.'” (Exodus
13:17)
Carrying the Torah at the Western Wall
In last week’s study, after the last and most devastating
of the Ten Plagues (Death of the Firstborn), Pharaoh finally
relented in letting the Israelites go free.
This week, however, in Parasha Beshalach, Pharaoh changes
his mind and races after them to bring them back into slavery.
Thinking they are lost in the wilderness, Pharaoh
seemingly traps them against the Red Sea. There is no
escape.
But God miraculously splits the waters so that His people
pass through on dry land, while the Egyptians drown behind
them.
In relief and thankfulness to God for this amazing victory
over those who wished to enslave them, Moshe (Moses) and the
Israelites sing a beautiful song called Shirat HaYam (שירת הים),
the Song of the Sea. Some also call it Az Yashir Moshe
(then Moses sang), which are the first words of the
Song of the Sea (Exodus 15:1).
This song is recited daily as part of the Shacharit (morning
prayer service).
It is written in a unique wave or brick-like pattern in the
Torah scroll and is recited in regular chant and traditional
melodies.
The Song of the Sea (Exodus 15:1–18)
In true humility, this song gives no glory to the
leadership of Moses or praise to the people for the faith it
took to walk between walls of water, but totally gives the
glory and praise to the Lord.
“I will sing to the LORD, for
He is highly exalted. Both horse and driver He has hurled
into the sea.” (Exodus 15:1)
This song of Moses is, perhaps, also mentioned in the Brit
Chadashah (New Testament) as a song that will be sung by those
who defeat the beast in the end times. However, this time they will be singing by the sea of
glass instead of the Red Sea and holding harps instead of
tambourines:
“Those defeating the beast,
its image and the number of its name were standing by the
sea of glass, holding harps which God had given them. They
were singing the song of Moshe, the servant of God, and the
song of the Lamb: ‘Great and wonderful are the things you
have done, Adonai, God of heaven’s armies!’” (Revelation
15:2–3)
The Song of Miriam, by Paulo Malteis
Moses’ sister, Miriam, also goes out with the maidens, and
they dance for joy with tambourines.
Because of these songs, this week’s Parasha is also called
Shabbat Shirah (Sabbath
of Singing).
Besides reading the Song of the Sea and the Song of Miriam
on Shabbat Shirah, some have the custom of feeding
the birds, in honor of the beautiful melodies that they sing
and, perhaps, the manna that was found on the ground by the
Israelites in this reading.
This is, of course, unusual in that wild birds are
generally not fed on the Shabbat; only domesticated birds such
as geese and chickens may be fed.
The Talmud explains that the Shabbat should not be broken
by feeding animals that can fend for themselves, although there is a responsibility to
feed the pets and domesticated animals that are under your
care.
A parrot is fed at the zoo in Jerusalem.
Haftarah Reading: The
Song of Deborah
Both the Torah portion and the Haftarah (prophetic portion)
of this week’s study contain victory songs by God’s
people.
In the Parasha, the Israelites sing the Song of the Sea,
extolling and honoring God for delivering them from Egypt. In
the Haftarah, the Song
of Deborah is sung when God gives them
victory over General Sisera and the Canaanites.
“Then Deborah and Barak the
son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying: ‘When leaders lead
in Israel, when the people willingly offer themselves, bless
the LORD! Hear, O kings! Give ear, O princes! I, even I,
will sing to the LORD; I will sing praise to the LORD God of
Israel.’” (Judges 5:1–3)
In the Song of the Sea, only God receives praise and glory
while in the Song of Deborah, the actions of valiant men and
women are also praised.
A Jewish man wearing a tallit (prayer shawl) and tefillin (phylacteries)
prays at the Western (Wailing) Wall in Jerusalem.
There are several other connections between the Torah
portion and this prophetic portion from the book of Judges.
In both accounts of Israel’s victories, their
enemies had assembled against them in chariots, but God
threw their enemies into a panic.
Also, in both the Parasha and Haftarah, Israel’s enemies
were swept away in water, and the women celebrated by singing
and dancing.
Music is a beautiful, God-given gift to His people. Sadly,
many in the world misuse this gift to glorify the powers of
darkness with vulgarity and promiscuity or the promotion of
violence and death. However, we can use the gift of song to
praise Adonai for His goodness and mercy.
Our response to the
victories that God brings us in our lives can be freely
expressed with rejoicing, with singing and with dancing,
just as Moses, Miriam, and Deborah did:
“Awake, awake, Deborah!
Awake, awake, sing a song! Arise, Barak, and lead your
captives away, O son of Abinoam!” (Judges 5:12)
Two women joyfully dance on Jerusalem day to celebrate the miracle of
the rebirth of the independent state of Israel.
The Long Way Home
The Hebrew word Beshalach
(בְּשַׁלַּח), the name of this Parasha,
means when he sent.
Pharaoh didn't simply let the people go; he sent the
Israelites away.
When he did, God did not lead them on the straightest, most
direct route to their Promised Land, which would have taken
them through Philistine territory and into certain battle.
Instead, He led them around and through the Red Sea or Yam Suf
(literally, Sea of Reeds).
Why didn’t God take them on the quickest route and
into battle?
The rabbis answer this with a story of a man who purchases
a cow and takes her home to produce milk for his family, not
to kill her for her meat.
Because the
slaughterhouse is on the path to his home, he takes her on
a longer, more roundabout route so that
she will not smell the blood from the slaughterhouse and try
to escape his care.
An Israeli father points out the family's hometown during a hike.
Likewise, God might not take you on the most direct route
to fulfilling your destiny. Instead,
He just might take you out of the way a bit, proving His
magnificent love for you by parting a sea
on the way or lighting your path during a time of darkness.
With that firsthand experience of God’s Presence, your
faith will be made stronger to sustain you in the trials
that will certainly come to you further down the road.
Still, as with any relationship, it takes more
than one great experience with God to know who He is and
to understand His character, integrity, and love.
So sometimes the journey to our destiny is more than
roundabout; it is the long way.
This truth is evident at the Red Sea. Even though the
Israelites experienced walking out of Egypt with the spoils
of the land and their firstborn sons still alive, that was
not enough to calm their fears for long.
Israelis visit the Western (Wailing) Wall, the largest open-air synagogue
in the world.
On the Way to the
Promised Land
“And when Pharaoh drew near,
the children of Israel lifted their eyes, and behold, the
Egyptians marched after them. So they were very afraid,
and the children of Israel cried out to the LORD.” (Exodus
14:10)
The Israelites' reaction when they saw Pharaoh
pursuing them confirms that they were not yet ready for
battle.
The frightened Israelites did the right thing with their
fear: they cried out to God!
Then they did the wrong thing: they blamed Moses for
bringing them out of Egypt, only to be annihilated by
Pharaoh’s soldiers. They considered it better to have been
left to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness. (Exodus
14:11)
Sometimes, when
moving on the path to greater freedom, we may encounter
fearful challenges and wish we had just stayed where we
were no matter how painful or uncomfortable that old
place felt.
Nevertheless, moving ahead means facing new challenges
and seeing God’s power demonstrated as we overcome them.
Moses reassured the Israelites that God would fight their
battles for them, and they would only need to hold their
peace.
“But Moses said to the
people, ‘Do not fear! Stand by and see the salvation of
the LORD which He will accomplish for you today; for the
Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see
them again forever. The LORD will fight for you
while you keep silent.” (Exodus 14:13–14)
Pharaoh's Army Engulfed by the Red Sea, by Frederick Arthur Bridgman
The Israelites had a dilemma: they were trapped
between a big sea and an angry Egyptians army, and
Moses told them to “keep silent.”
That silence involved a choice.
On one hand, they could keep silent, hear the approaching
chariots get louder, and then surrender to them in
overwhelming fear and helplessness.
On the other hand, they could keep silent, listen for the
Lord's direction to move
forward (kadima!), and obey Him.
“And the LORD said to Moses,
‘Why do you cry to Me? Tell
the children of Israel to go forward.’” (Exodus 14:15)
Their silence was not meant to be passive. It involved
action.
So often we are told
to “wait upon the Lord,” and we often accept this to
mean "do nothing."
It is true there are times when we must find the patience
to simply do nothing but wait until God shows us His
direction; however, there are also times when God says,
“Move forward!” At those times, we are to rise up from
bended knee in heroic faith and go!
A father sits with his daughter in Jerusalem. Around the two are the
young men and women who are called upon to protect Israel from the
nation's enemies.
God has wonderful blessings and victories in store for us
if we would only take the first steps of faith, trusting in
His leadership and wisdom. Through Yeshua we are more than
conquerors. (Romans 8:37)
Let us, then, not miss our orders to go forward
with boldness and confidence to possess the Land that is
ours.
Moses demonstrated great faith to his people. We also
need to encourage those who are fearful, reminding them of
God’s great power, love, and faithfulness.
“Say to those with fearful
hearts, ‘Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, He
will come with vengeance; with divine retribution He will
come to save you.’” (Isaiah 35:4)
Today, as the people of Israel stand surrounded by a sea
of hostile enemies, bombarded by a wave of terrorism, may
all Believers reach out to the Jewish People with words of
faith and courage that God has indeed become our Salvation through Yeshua.
He will fight our battles for us. And as we go forward,
we can be at peace as we trust in Him.
You can play an active role in the end-time salvation of
the Jewish People by helping us bring the Good News of
Yeshua to the Holy Land.
"You will bring them
in and plant them on the mountain of your inheritance—the
place, Lord, you made for your dwelling, the sanctuary,
Lord, your hands established." (Exodus 15:17)
“Hear the word of the LORD, you
nations; proclaim it in distant coastlands: ‘He who scattered Israel
will gather them and will watch over His flock like a
shepherd.’” (Jeremiah 31:10)

The Jewish people (the People of the Book)
gave the world the BIBLE. Today there are about 14 million
Jewish people in the world though most have never studied
the Messianic Prophecies. Finally, for the first time, there will
be a Hebrew Messianic Prophecy Bible, based on the
Ancient Dead Sea Scrolls and Masoretic texts translated
into hundreds of languages, exposing the true meanings.
Many have falsely said that God is finished with His
Chosen People; however, Bible prophecy clearly states that
this will never be so. In fact, in these Last Days, God is moving
among His people to physically and spiritually restore them.
