Pesach II 5782: Sitting Alone Outside the Camp

Introduction

Parashat Metzora 5782: Sitting Alone Outside the Camp

Description: On the 7th day of Pesach, we commemorate the people of Israel’s successful traversal of the Sea of Reeds. While the moment was exceptional, even eliciting an epic song, we must consider the unusual build-up in order to appreciate its true import. We will turn to the commentary of R. Avraham Ibn Ezra for guidance.
