Episode 242 - Parshat Chayei Sara: Between King David's Life and Legacy

from Matan: One on One Parsha Podcast · host Matan: One on One Parsha Podcast

In this rich conversation with Torah scholar and Tanakh author Dr. Nechama Price, we explore the complex closing of David's life in this week's haftorah. How is his end both similar and different from Avraham's final chapter? How can we understand the motives of several secondary characters in this complex narrative? How does Divrei Ha-Yamim present these same events and how do we know which version is correct? A short conversation with Dr. Necham Price is always packed with insightful Torah-Enjoy! This episode is sponsored by Barbara and Joel Rich in commemoration of Barbara’s father’s 13th yahrtzeit. This year The Matan Podcast is exploring the weekly Haftorah, the prophetic portion read each week as a complement to the parsha.
