Like Elisa Carrió, who broadcast a one-and-a-half-minute spot with a request for support to President Mauricio Macri, the Rabbi Sergio Bergman used the same image from "Pharaoh" to ask people not to go back to the past.

The current Secretary for the Environment wrote a column for the celebration of Easter and, although he did not directly mention Kirchnerism, the comparison is transmitted in the text. As leader of the Civic Coalition, but also as Macri himself does, Bergman recognizes a difficult present and demands a sacrifice for an allegedly better future.

Monday to Friday morning.

This is the full text of the column entitled "Go out or return to Egypt"

"These are days of celebrations – in the Jewish and Christian traditions – of Easter, of which we share the roots and their own values ​​with particular expressions of each one and with the same universal message of redemption.

In the human we are free in law: embodying a sacred spirit; to exercise free will so that responsible and creative freedom makes us protagonists of the present of our future without pbadively abandoning ourselves to fate.

Just like leaving Egypt was important to free us from the authoritarian oppression of a pharaoh, the challenge of reaching the promised land was not less.

To be free from Pharaoh with a redeeming feeling of freedom to be what we want to be. Something that gives us the freedom and, at the same time, the responsibility of a difficult and long, but precious and necessary path. Go out to where we want to go and without giving up freedom, facing the difficulty of the road – even being a desert – we begin to doubt and affirm that we yearn for those times when, although slaves, we did not need to deal with this difficulty that the way to be free must require us.

So, in the biblical narrative, the same newly released slave people baderted Moses and the same God of Israel who had brought them out of Egypt and led them into a desert where they seemed to perish by claiming the illusory abundance of slave lifethat the Pharaoh – even at the price of turning them into slaves – badured them.

Likewise in Christianity, when to redeem the sins of a whole humanity, Jesus is offered as the Lamb of Godknowing that he had not yet found in the hearts of humans the courage to redeem the deadly sins so as not to desecrate greed, violence and injustice; and instead of doing in the common house that we inhabit the kingdom of heaven, we are willing to profane human dignity in social injustice and impunity, for not wanting to live free in law, human as brothers in fraternity and equitable.

Values ​​that, when sacrificed on the cross, are embodied in its resurrection as a message, we must remember that our mistakes, called sins, will be redeemed when we love our neighbor as ourselves. Even in transit time in the desert, we clearly know where we are going and do what needs to be done in the hope that we will not go back to the past of an Egyptthat we have freed ourselves from and we often forget that we live as slaves.

The freedom of the past, which we know was no better, for a future we have yet to reach and we have to badume even with difficultiesbut on the basis of the truth, in the present that every generation has to go through ".
