Bo

This week, the last three of ten plagues befall Egypt. After the horror of the final plague, Pharoah’s resistance has worn, and he tells the Jewish people to leave. In this liminal space before their departure, G!d instructs the Israelites in mitzvot, structured ways to connect to G!d during this scary time. Included in the mitzvot that are given is sacrificing a lamb and putting its blood on their doorposts. The Sfat Emet writes so beautifully: “The Exodus from Egypt was only the beginning, the time when they came out from under Pharaoh’s hand...this is hinted at in the smearing of blood on the lintel and the doorposts: so that they know this is only the beginning.” Perhaps there is nothing that symbolizes both life and death as much as blood. When we are in the liminal spaces, at the threshold of big changes, where can we bring G!d in? What can we do to symbolize our crossing over from one identity to the other?
