Will we ever learn what this means ... in time?
"Remember Lot's wife."
(Luke 17:32 )
Or does history just repeat ... Same song; Second verse; Could be
better; But it's worse!

Understand Well, My Brothers by Levi Chazen Jan 19, '07 / 29 Tevet 5767
In this week's parsha, the redemption process begins to move into high
gear. But before the stage gets set for the downfall of the mighty
Egyptians "who know not Hashem", the Jewish people themselves were
struggling with the process.And so we find that the Jewish people in Egypt were so embedded in
Egyptian culture, that when the redemption came, the great majority
were unable to release themselves from it ... Make no mistake about
it: The great majority of the Jewish people at the time ... The most
liberal figures teach us that 80 percent-some 9 to 10 million
Jews-died during the plague of darkness.The feeling that Egypt was their "homeland", together with the "good
life" they enjoyed, clouded their vision so much ...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1Pe 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house
of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them
that obey not the gospel of God?
But ...
1 Cor 11:
31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we
should not be condemned with the world.Baruch HaShem!
David
