Honoring the Innocent Victims of Conflict

Rabbi Reuven Greenvald
The drama of Parashat Bo is mostly terrifying. The mounting confrontation between the Israelites – represented by Moses and Aaron (but really God) – and the Egyptians – represented by an unnamed Pharaoh – reaches its crescendo with the last three of the ten plagues . We should strive to remember all of the innocent victims on both sides of every conflict.
