How to be a Hero

from On the Other Hand: Ten Minutes of Torah

Parashat Lech L'cha tells us the story of the very beginning of Jewish history, when God says to Abraham and Sarah that they are to "go forth" and begin the story of Jewish commitment. We learn a lot about the first Jews from this parashah, but perhaps one of the most important lessons is about what it means to be a hero. Listen to Rabbi Rick Jacobs, president of the Union for Reform Judaism, discuss the part of the story that is too often skipped over, and what we have to learn from it.
