Vaera – Va’Yedaber Elokim El Moshe 5572

The backbreaking labor of the Jewish Nation in Egypt, served as a preparation to enable the Torah to be given to them.

However the  blessing preceding the Mitzvah is higher then the Mitzvah itself, for it draws down an encompassing light upon the soul enabling the Mitzvah to be preformed.
