Parsha “Mishpatim” (Exodus chapters 21 through 24) is literally “judgments,” or “ordinances,” and begins with a number of them.
But what is most fascinating about them is that so many are now considered NOT ‘politically-correct,’ and that fact alone merits taking a special look at why.
The Erev Shabbat Reading:
Mark has long remarked about the fact that this parsha, Mishpatim, is SO very NOT PC. But this year, we need to take note of an important change. People seem to have just about “had it” with men pretending to dominate ‘womens’ sports’, and kids being taught utter perversion – and worse – in the public cesspools. And just about everything else that amounts to “calling evil good,” and vice-versa.
And the level of utter corruption and criminality in an illegitimate government that was NEVER supposed to be a ‘democracy’ in the first place has inclined more people to ask just how we could have been so deceived for so long.
Perhaps the answer is in one of the key verses – also too often ignored – in this parsha as well: “Do not follow after a multitude to do evil.” Could that include even a ‘majority vote’?
Mishpatim: DEMOLISH PC Idolatry – finally
NOTE: The HNR website had difficulty loading the separate MP3 file for the Sabbath day teaching alone – so I had to go with a single combined file; the Friday reading is thus on there twice, as some have noticed.
