The two and a half tribes east of the Jordan were the first to be exiled at
the time of the churban. The very fact that they dwelled there was
considered the beginning of the galut.
The haftarah of parashat Matot relates the gloomy prophecy of
Yirmeyahu Hanavi. But in the midst of it, he mentions the kindness that
Bnei Yisrael did with Hashem by following Him blindly into the
Wilderness. What is the connection between the admonition and
Hashem’s love for His people?
Although Hashem is at times angered by His nation, He loves them as a
father does a son. The fact that He remembers their kindness in the
Wilderness opens a window of hope for them. Hashem always awaits their
return to Him, no matter how they far they may fall.
