Another interesting point made by Rabbi Sitorsky in his commentary on Vayigash concerned the unity of the Jewish people. He said that the letters that spell out Hamas (in Hebrew) allude to Chassidim, Mitnagdim, Ashkenazim, Sephardim. He said that when we divide ourselves up arbitrariy instead of simply thinking of ourselves as just plain Jews, that's when our enemies come and pounce upon us.
Amazing connection.
