What Is The Punishment?
And Rabbi David Miller brings from the Cheves HaVaves in Shaar Bechina Perechei, he says the objective of the oisis and the maifsim that the Rabbeinu Shalom does is one of the greatest benefits that HaKadosh Baruch Hu can do for us.
Why? Because it opens our minds to see and feel the Rabbeinu Shalom, like the pasuk says, "Veyadu Mitzrayim keni Hashem lamanteidaki inkamaini bechal ha'aretz." The emphasis, the purpose of these nisim v'neflos were in order to generate be'klal Yisrael lamuna Bashem.
And he explains the difference between oisis and maifsim.
He says the word oisis means those that are coming.
And he says, what does that mean? That the oisis refer to the nisim that the Rabbeinu Shalom did with being forewarned, meaning the Rabbeinu Shalom warned Mitzrayim before he brought them.
That's the loshen of an ois.
He says that it comes from the term, "Ye'asayu," or, "Ve'asa," which means to come.
The Rabbeinu Shalom pre-planned these oisis.
That's what an ois is.
And a maifis is something that proves a certain concept, even though the Rabbeinu Shalom didn't say he's going to bring it, but that's a maifis.
A maifis is a rayah, a proof to the ahavah of the Rabbeinu Shalom, to the fact that HaKadosh Baruch Hu has endless power.
Number one, he warned them.
And number two, these nisim had an element of a maifis in it, which is a demonstration on the truth of HaKadosh Baruch Hu's love for Klal Yisrael and HaKadosh Baruch Hu's endless abilities.
