In this week’s parsha of Yitro, God descends to Mt Sinai in a thick murky cloud to give the people the 10 commandments. While the Israelites keep a safe distance, Moses steps into the fog to meet God. This is what we must to.. embrace mystery or miss out on the whole thing.
Welcome to the “Raising Holy Sparks” podcast! Hope you enjoy these short weekly insights into the torah portion! This week we dive deep into the Parshah of Yitro.
Sources mentioned in connection with this week’s torah portion:
- Exodus 20:18 – “The people remained at a distance, while Moses approached the thick cloud where God was.”
- 1 Kings 19:12 – “After the earthquake—fire; but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire—a soft murmuring sound.”
Thanks for listening and looking forward to being on this journey through the books of the Torah with you!
