Show by Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies

Can compassion overcome even our deepest feelings of jealousy and rivalry? In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Nechama Goldman Barash explore the emotional and spiritual journeys of Yaakov, Rachel, and Leah in Parshat Vayetze. From Yaakov’s dream of a ladder connecting heaven and earth to the complicated relationships within his growing family, they examine how moments of spiritual inspiration coexist with life's struggles. Through powerful Midrashim about Rachel and Leah, they consider how compassion and selflessness can help us move beyond jealousy and rivalry toward deeper connection.
