“ Sarah is wrong, here. But she’s the Jews’ ancestor, and Jews are meant to identify with her — and, in my opinion, in this story, it’s not meant to be a comfortable identification.”

i’m not sure why this part felt like such a fresh revelation, but as i’m experiencing elul & the lead up to the high holidays for the first time, it resonated strongly. thank you.

Thank you for this Rabbi. Just thank you. As always, your wisdom and your encouragement to engage to honest, hard self-reflection so we can see ourselves truly, even when its uncomfortable is appreciated. Sometimes it is the nudge I need to dig deeper and do true repair. So thank you.
