THE EXODUS
Reminders of the Exodus
| |
| The Question: | There are many Torah commandments with the stated purpose
of reminding us of the Exodus from Egypt (Tefilin, Mezuzah, Matzah,
Maror, Hagadah, etc.). Why is it necessary to have so many actions
in order to remind us of one event? |
| Choices: |
- If one commandment is not fulfilled there are always others as "backups".
- Thoughts are influenced by actions.
- Belief in the Exodus is one of the foundations of Judaism.
|
| Your Answer: | Belief in the Exodus is one of the foundations of Judaism. |
The Exodus, as it is described in the Torah, illustrates graphically many of the most fundamental of Jewish beliefs; Divine Providence, reward and punishment, free-will, prophecy, social justice, and the
unique relationship between G-d and the Jewish people. |
