It's interesting:
The book of Genesis is all about high levels of human potential.
All the way from - Adam naming all of creation,
to the generation of Noah destroying the world,
the generation of Babel trying to create a new order for the universe,
Yosef creating a new dream for all of humanity .
Then we reach the book of Exodus...
which is all about the generation descending from Avraham (Israelites) being completely binded,
in a state of mental slavery. The Israelites perceive themselves as having no power, powerless, slaves 2 mans will, no relationship with God.
Arguably, the exodus from Egypt is all about discovering one's purpose, realizing God's destiny for an individual, for a community, for all of humanity ..
What can we learn from this?
It's almost like our lives!
when we were kids
we had big dreams!
but as we get older, we forget...
The Torah is teaching us
if you're really lucky/chosen by Gd
You're blessed to have a series of life experiences
maybe through hardship
reminding you
inspiring you -
of what all of humanity is suppose to be in this lifetime!!!
"Book of Genesis = human potential
Book of Exodus = rediscovering human potential"
