Beshalach | Exodus 13:17 – 17:16

Shabbat Shalom 

Portion Beshalach asks the question: Where do we go from here?

After a narrow escape from Egypt, the Children of Israel find themselves in the wilderness with no livelihood, food, or water.

With this week’s recovery and burial of Ran Gvili, many people find themselves questioning the future. Now that the last hostage has been found, what is the next step? What does the future hold? Shmuel finds an answer in the wisdom of the Torah and in insight from his young daughter. Join Shmuel for an answer, assurance, and portion Beshalach!
