En la secci\u00f3n de esta semana Vaigash (Y se aproxim\u00f3), la Tor\u00e1 nos cuenta que Iaacov, junto a toda su familia, descendi\u00f3 a Egipto para reencontrarse con su hijo Iosef y pasar los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os de su vida en una mejor situaci\u00f3n. Cuando lleg\u00f3 a la ciudad de Beer Sheva, l\u00edmite de la Tierra de Israel, Di-s se le apareci\u00f3 en un sue\u00f1o y le dijo (ver Bereshit 46:3) \u00abNo temas al descender a Egipto, porque te har\u00e9 un gran pueblo all\u00ed\u00bb.<\/p>\n
Now, if Jacob was afraid to go to Egypt, why did God wait until he reached Beersheba to encourage him and not say anything at the beginning of the journey? Rashi explains that Jacob felt bad because he had to leave the Land of Israel, which would happen after passing Beersheba. This leads us to understand that what we thought was fear was actually a kind of suffering. Jacob knew what it meant to live outside the Land of Israel (since he had already lived for twenty years in Laban's house in Haran) and he knew that the best place to live and raise his family in the best possible environment was the Land of Israel. That is why God promises him that He will multiply him in Egypt, implying to Jacob that it is precisely through the descent into Egypt that the greatest growth will come afterward.<\/p>\n
A\u00fan as\u00ed, Di-s no le dice a Iaacov \u00abno te preocupes\u00bb, o \u00abno sufras\u00bb, porque siempre debe existir en el jud\u00edo el sentimiento de que se encuentra en el exilio, en un lugar (f\u00edsico y espiritual) que no es el suyo, no es el apropiado. Esto le recuerda a cada uno en forma constante, cu\u00e1l es su verdadero lugar.<\/p>\n
Aqu\u00ed hay una doble ense\u00f1anza: por un lado, no se debe temer del exilio. Si Di-s nos mand\u00f3 aqu\u00ed, El nos da la fuerza para superarlo y nos sacar\u00e1 eventualmente de aqu\u00ed. Por el otro, nunca hay que \u00absentirse c\u00f3modo\u00bb, ni dejar de pensar que \u00e9ste no es nuestro verdadero lugar, tanto en lo material como en lo espiritual. Siempre debemos exigirle a Di-s que traiga r\u00e1pidamente la Redenci\u00f3n Final, con Mash\u00edaj, \u00a1Ya!.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"En la secci\u00f3n de esta semana Vaigash (Y se aproxim\u00f3), la Tor\u00e1 nos cuenta que Iaacov, junto a toda su familia, descendi\u00f3 a Egipto para reencontrarse con su hijo Iosef y pasar los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os de su vida en una mejor situaci\u00f3n.
