In this shiur, delivered in Sharfmans, Rav Burg explores three dimensions to the story of Pharaoh at the Yam Suf.

1. The simple explanation that Pharaoh was killed.

2. The deeper explanation that Pharaoh was spared and suffered as he watched the devastation of the Egyptian army.

3. Pharaoh did Teshuva, became the King of Ninveh and ultimately converted to Judaism.

We all have a Pharaoh part inside of ourselves. Do we destroy our Pharaoh, force our Pharaoh to watch the destruction it causes or convert our Pharaoh to Judaism?
