PARSHAS SHEMOS IN DEPTH FROM Chabad.org
Every son that is born you shall cast into the River, and every daughter you shall make live (1:22)
Pharaoh did not merely allow the Jewish girls to live; he commanded to “make them live” (techayun, in the Hebrew).
Pharaoh’s decree of annihilation against the Jewish people consisted of two parts: to throw every Jewish newborn male into the Nile, and to make live every female. The boys were to be physically murdered. The girls were to be murdered spiritually by making them live the Egyptian life, by indoctrinating them into the perverse lifestyle of Egypt.
The boys were to be drowned in the Nile. The girls, too, were to be drowned in the Nile—conceptually, if not actually. The Nile, which irrigated the fields of rain-parched Egypt, was the mainstay of its economy and its most venerated god. The girls were to be raised in this cult of the river, their souls submerged in a way of life that deifies the earthly vehicle of material sustenance.
In our own day, the Pharaoh-instituted practice of drowning children in the Nile is still with us: there are still parents whose highest consideration in choosing a school for their children is how it will further their child’s economic prospects when the time will come for him or her to enter the job market.
The people of Israel survived the Egyptian galut because there were Jewish mothers who refused to comply with Pharaoh’s decree to submerge their children in his river. If we are to survive the present galut, we too must resist the dictates of the current Pharaohs. We must set the spiritual and moral development of our children, rather than their future “earning power” and “careers,” as the aim of their education.
(The Lubavitcher Rebbe)

✴ CHITAS (חת"ת) is the acronym for Chumash, Tehilim, Tanya.
💥 Chitas means also "fear".
"And the fear of Hashem was upon the cities that were around them, so that they did not pursue Yaacov's sons."
"ויהי חתת אלוקים על הערים"
(Bereshit 32:5).
💫"The one who says Chitas sees deliverance". - Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneerson
🔸 One may be very busy, or not used to saying Chitas daily...Even saying a little bit of Chitas, one Possuk of Chumash, one Rashi, one line of Tanya, one chapter of Tehillim, is already a connection to Chitas.
(M Wasserman)
