This evening we discuss what brought about the splitting of the Red Sea (not what you think), and apply this to our lives with an insight of Rebbetzin Temima Mizrachi, and a wonderful story by Sarah Tuttle-Singer. We explain the presence of the tambourines Miriam and the other women used to accompany their singing and dancing after safely crossing the Red Sea. We provide a new explanation of Moshe's raised hands against Amalek with a poignant story from Rabbi Yechiel Spero. And, as we will not be meeting next week, we share an insight of Rabbi Avraham Kook into the dual nature of Shabbat.

Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.
