THE MOST IMPORTANT PARSHA IN THE TORAH (MY FATHER WAS RIGHT)

from Deeper Look At The Parsha · host Rabbi Pini Dunner

The latest Ukrainian corruption scandal shows how moral collapse hides in the smallest details — a theme Rabbi Dunner sees echoed in Parshat Vayeitzei. Jacob’s true greatness appears not on a ladder to heaven but in the messy arena of daily life. Rabbi Dunner’s late father always insisted that Vayeitzei was “the most important parsha.” He may have been right.
