Vayera 5787: Through Different Eyes

from Pardes from Jerusalem Hosted by Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies

Can we choose to see hope when all we see is uncertainty? In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Deborah Anstandig explore the power of perspective in Parshat Vayera. Through the stories of Hagar, Sarah, and Avraham, they examine how fear, despair, and uncertainty can shape what we are able to see. From Hagar's discovery of water in the desert to Sarah's unexpected joy and Avraham's difficult test of faith, their conversation asks how we can learn to see beyond our immediate circumstances and make room for hope, even when the future remains uncertain.
