Arbeh The Plague… And Arbeh, The Blessing?

The Meaning Behind The Eighth Plague Of Locusts

This week, Rabbi Fohrman and Imu do a deep dive into the eighth plague in the bible – arbeh, locusts – seen in Parshat Bo. They ask, why does the Torah use language “eye” and “seeing” here? Could it connect to the word “arbeh,” used back in Genesis, which connected to the blessing of Israel?

Join their conversation as they search for the spiritual meaning behind the plague of locusts.
