#parsha — Public Fediverse posts

I first heard this #Midrash from the late Nechama Leibowitz, Z"L in a class I took with her in the summer of 1995. It says the #Jews in the desert weren't able to drink the water in Marah because "כי מרים הם" wich is normally translated as, "because the waters were bitter". This Midrash reinterprets the words to mean, "Because the people were bitter". Our attitude colors the way we see the world in so many ways! #parsha #torah #mazeldon
