Mishpatim: Equal Justice for All

In Parashat Mishpatim, the Torah lays out the infrastructure for establishing a rectified society. One of the most surprising commandments is: "Do not show partiality to a poor man in his legal case" (Exodus 23:3). At first glance, this seems almost contrary to human nature. Does the Torah, which preaches mercy, kindness, and aid to the poor, instruct us specifically here to halt our compassion?

The commandment of Dinim (Laws) is a positive, proactive obligation for the Children of Noah. The Torah warns the judge, and society as a whole, against the emotional tendency to tilt the judgment in favor of the poor person simply because of his poverty.

It was here that the Seven Noahide Commandments—originally given to Adam and Noah—were reaffirmed and integrated into the eternal Divine covenant through Moses. Surprisingly, the portion is not named "The Giving of the Torah." Instead, it is named after a man: Yitro (Jethro), who held the title "Priest of Midian." Why does the Torah not name the portion after this transformational event, rather, after Jethro?

The Zohar reveals that the Torah could not be given to the world until Yitro arrived and acknowledged the Almighty. It was only after Yitro proclaimed, "Now I know that the Lord is greater than all the gods," that a spiritual elevation occurred across all worlds, allowing the connection between Heaven and Earth at Mount Sinai.

Interesting that verse 18:12 it says Yisro made an offering to Elokim. I think everywhere else offerings are to Hashem. Just of note that the offering was to the attribute of Elokim rather than to Hashem.
