Parsha with Rabbi David Bibi
Simplifying the Sod


Bones, Blessings, and the Power of Being Remembered - BeShalach
Episode Description
As the Jewish people leave Egypt, the Torah highlights an unexpected detail: while others gather gold and silver, Moshe Rabbeinu carries the bones of Yosef. Why does the Torah emphasize this act at the very moment of redemption? And why does Yosef bind his final request to the words pakod yifkod — “G-d will surely remember you”? This class explores how memory, reassurance, and quiet faith outlast wealth, power, and even generations of exile.
Interwoven with this Torah insight is a deeply personal story spanning 57 years — a blessing given quietly by a grandmother, remembered decades later by the man whose life she changed, and returned to her grandson months after her passing. Together with a reflection on the yahrzeit of Rabbi Abittan זצ״ל, whose defining gift was instilling confidence and calm, this class reveals a timeless truth: the greatest legacy we leave behind is not what we give, but what others remember carrying because of us.
