[Avodah] Be Careful What You Wish For

[Meir Rabi]

Rbtzn Toby Katz said, "Miriam's "chutzpa" was the kind of imploring,
wheedling behaviour a charming child might show towards a doting parent."
[Meir Rabi] this interpretation does not appear to read easily in the words
Chazal use to describe what Miryam did and said. I think that even the most
liberal minded parent would be rather uncomfortable to hear their child
comparing their well meaning strategies and actions to those of an
established enemy of the Jewish people who intended and implemented plans to
destroy us wholesale.
And to twist the dagger, she is named PuAh to remind us and honour Miryam
for being brazen faced.
And the Torah celebrates this and preserves for posterity such behaviour.
