Weekly Insight into Perashat Hashavua, a project of the Sephardic Synagogue Fellowship, this podcast brings thoughtful Torah conversations to life, designed to inspire Shabbat table discussion and deepen connection to the weekly Parasha.
In this week's episode, we discuss the story of Akedat Yishak. Specifically, how could Abraham, the paradigm of Hesed, be willing to commit child sacrifice, and how does this relate to what the test of the Akedah is? Must Abraham surrender his conception of morality in the face of Hashem's command, or does Abraham's ultimate refusal to sacrifice Yishak represent the assertion of what he believes is just?
