Musar sobre Êxodo 4:3
וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ הַשְׁלִיכֵ֣הוּ אַ֔רְצָה וַיַּשְׁלִיכֵ֥הוּ אַ֖רְצָה וַיְהִ֣י לְנָחָ֑שׁ וַיָּ֥נָס מֹשֶׁ֖ה מִפָּנָֽיו׃
Ordenou-lhe o SENHOR: Lança-a no chão. Ele a lançou no chão, e ela se tornou em cobra; e Moisés fugiu dela.
Shemirat HaLashon
(Ibid. 3): "And he threw it to the ground and it became a serpent" (see Rashi). It is also possible to say that He intimated to him that by words of lashon hara there was created the serpent that "prosecutes" man above, desiring to "bite" him.
