Parshat Vayishlach: And Yaakov Arrived Whole Sparks from the Fire

    • Judendom

After escaping Lavan, wrestling an angel, and appeasing his brother Eisav, how can the text say that Yaakov arrived home whole? Join Rabbi Yonatan Udren for an exploration of Yaakov’s great lesson: the power to constantly strive towards perfection is wholeness itself. Based on the commentary of Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz on Bereishit, and brought to you by the RRG Beit Midrash, the spiritual home for Hebrew University students on campus.
