Parshah Thought: Vayechi

Yosef Hatzaddik understood his place in history What a beautiful explanation of Yosef's message to all of us. Remember the difficult time he had as a teen in Egypt without familial or communal support to help him maintain his Judaism. The lessons he learned from his father made such a strong impression on him that it carried him through the most challenging times. He was able to function in the corrupt egyptian world of business while maintaining a high level of honesty and integrity on behalf of the pharoh. He understood his role in life and he knew that his luck came from G-d. Reply
