Parshat Noach Dvar Torah from Morah Twito!

In Parshat Noach, we learn about the mabul (flood), which Noach built for 120 years because Hashem kept giving the Jews the opportunity to do Teshuva. 


In the beginning, the water went up to the Jews’ toes, and they saw Noach start building the Tevah but didn’t believe him. Then the water went up to their knees, then to their thighs, etc. It got to the point when Noach closed the Tevah and the Jews couldn’t get in anymore. 


After the mabul, Hashem gave them the sign of the keshet, the rainbow to promise that something like the mabul, ending the world, won’t happen again. 


Why is the sign Hashem chose of the rainbow something colorful and beautiful? Because every color has its place, and there’s a boundary between each and every color, otherwise there’d be chaos and exactly what happened before the mabul.


Through the rainbow, Hashem is giving us a specific order of how something must be, and no one should take from or hurt someone else because it, too, would cause chaos. 


Shabbat Shalom!
