in this week's parsha, Rashi tells us that Hashem judged Yishmael as he<br>
was (then), not looking into his future or the future of his descendants.<br>
<br>
However we know that by the episode of Moshe we do know that Moshe<br>
looked forward to see if the Mitzri would have any worthy descendants,<br>
(he saw none, and then killed the Mitzri)......<br>
Why the difference between the two cases??<br>
<br>
RSZ:<br>
It's obvious. The mitzri then was not innocent, he was guilty!<br></blockquote></div></blockquote><div><br>LK:<br>And Yishmael was innocent? See the Siftei Chachamim on Rashi there. Rather, I think you have to say that for all the bad Yishamel's descendants have done to us, there have been good ones as well.<br>
