Editor's Note:
Who is you? Pardon my grammar, but it was the snazziest opener I could come up with. Who is "you"? Beyond your name, your job, your achievements and your failings, stripped down to nothing but a pronoun, what is left of you?
This week's Torah portion sparks that question with its very first sentence: "And you shall command the children of Israel . . ." In this instance, "you" refers to Moses, who—for the first and only time in the Torah since the story of his birth—is omitted from an entire Torah portion (here's [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=5C975B2A0B8B50316AEB81A7BEECD230&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] some more info on that), appearing only as the nameless recipient of G‑d's instructions for the children of Israel.
And so, for a whole week we live with a different kind of Moses than we've seen before. A Moses who is just a "you." And what are we left with? ". . . Command the children of Israel"—his relationship with his fellow Jews.
Which got me wondering: how many layers down does my commitment to my people go? Who is me? Is it you?
