I'm only half way through reading Shemot (the parsha (portion of Torah) im to give a dvar torah (a like interpretation/lecture given during shabbat services) on) and so far
- two enslaved women tell a bald faced lie to the unbelievably more powerful Pharo, saving hundreds if not thousands of lives
- Moses is born, hidden by the river, found, adopted, and raised as a prince
- Moses fucking kills a man!?
- he flees Egypt, saves a life, gets married, has a kid
- sees hashem in a burning bush and wrestles with hashem for seven days arguing that he's not worthy of his assignment
- hashem is asked what it's name is and it responds with "I am that I am",,
im,,, omg,, I feel like I could give a dvar every year on this parsha for the rest of my life and still have things to say,, aaaaa
