OK, Your Humble Blogger is on the road today, but here’s a quick Parshah note for Shemot (Gen 1:1 - 6:1).

So there is everything from what if Moses declines the Lord’s mission to what if Pharoah lets them go right away. But here’s a quick one for me to chew on for a week or so: What if Moses doesn’t marry Zipporah? What if he comes back single?
