Scenes with Yochabel
4 scenes Yochabel Yochabel My noble one, it caught. I had not the strength to free myself.
Your shoulder should not bear a burden, old woman. [Begins cutting her loose]
Yochabel The Lord has renewed my strength and lightened my burdens.
He would have done better to remove them.
Yochabel Why have you come here?
Because Moses will come here.
Yochabel My son?
No, my son. And that’s all he must know.
Yochabel My lips might deny him, great one, but my eye never could.
You shall leave Goshen, you and your family, tonight.
Yochabel We are Levites, appointed shepherds of Israel. We cannot leave our people.
Would you take from Moses all that I have given him? Would you undo all that I have done for him? I have put the throne of Egypt within his reach. What can you give him in its place?
Yochabel I gave him life.
I gave him love!
What change is there in me? Egyptian or Hebrew, I am still Moses. These are the same hands, the same arms, the same face that were mine a moment ago.
Yochabel A moment ago, you were her son, the strength of Egypt. Now you are mine, a slave in Egypt. You find no shame in this?
There is no shame in me. How can I feel shame for the woman who bore me? Or the race that bred me?
