SF - Protect Your Precious Soul

When Moshe Rabenu was born his family saw that "he was good and they hid him for three months." What does "good" signify? "Good' expresses that he glowed with a special illumination that filled the house with light. His family hid him so that the Egyptians would not see the light and discover Moshe. In addition, Moshe's family did not want the Egyptians to sense that the holy baby was the redeemer, who was sent by HaShem, to take Klal Yisrael out of darkness into light, and from slavey to freedom.

Holy entities need to be protected. The more holy and precious they are, the more protection they need.

HaShem endows each one of us with a holy soul -- which is infinitely precious and good. Protect your soul from elements that could jeopardize your spiritual integrity.

(Based on the commentary of the Kli Yakar to Shemos 2:2)
