Moshe is Special

Hi,

"'And Gd called to Moshe (Vayyikra 1:1)' - Did Gd not call to Adam in Bereishit 3, 'And Gd called to Adam'? Yes, but there is no shame in a king speaking to his sharecropper. [Adam was charged with working Gd's earth.]

"'And spoke to him [Moshe]' - Did Gd not speak to Noach in Bereishit 8, 'And Gd spoke to Noach?' Yes, but there is no shame in a king speaking with the one who cares for his animals.

"'And Gd called to Moshe' - Did Gd not call to Avraham in Bereishit 22, 'And an angel of Gd called to Avraham?' Yes, but there is no shame in a king speaking to his innkeeper."

(Vayyikra Rabbah 1:9)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
