This week’s portion is Beshalach, which translates to “when he sent.” The name comes from the opening verse: “When Pharaoh let the people go...” (13:17). After ten rounds of increasingly destructive plagues, Pharaoh finally agreed to release the Israelites.

Exodus 14 first provides a list of place names describing the winding journey of the escape. This was not a direct march from Egypt to Canaan; it was a zigzagging, circuitous route. For modern scholars and archaeologists, this path is almost impossible to retrace with certainty, since many place names have faded from historical memory. Therefore, the exact route of the Exodus journey remains a mystery.
