This week we begin the new parsha Chayei Sarah and we discuss the importance of Abraham's choice of the Cave of Machpelah and how Abraham and Sarah are the template of faith that we are to set as an example for our daily lives.
Listen to Fellowship President and CEO Yael Eckstein share an excerpt from her new podcast, The Chosen People.
This week's parsha, Chayei Sarah (Genesis/Bereshiet 23:1 - 25:18) essentially concludes the story of the life of the Patriarch, Abraham, but is titled the 'Life of Sarah,' and begins with her death at the age of 127. But this portion is perhaps THE most significant exposition of principles once known as the English Common Law in all of Scripture, by example. The Erev Shabbat reading, from the First Land Contract, to the First "Good and Faithful Servant," and a prototype for what constitutes marriage as well: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/SSM-11-22-24-Chayei-Sarah-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa has noted that it is surprising (but perhaps shouldn't be!) how often the regular Torah parsha reading is so precisely on-target for what it happening in the world at that time. This one seems to be an exception. At least until we look a bit deepeer. What does a parsha that has EVERYTHING to do with fundamental elements of the 'common law' matter in a week where the big issue seems to be whether the world even survives long enough for an inauguration? The answer is in the contrast: we got here because "lawlessness abounds," and not only has the "love of many grown cold," but outright hatred seems to abound as well in its place.

The Big Picture
Welcome back! Today's podcast comes to you from high on the Mountains of Israel. Brayden and Tali share with you the beauty of waiting to see the face of our messiah. It's interesting that in the story of Abraham being willing to offer Isaac as a sacrifice, the next time Issac is mentioned in Genesis is when he sees his bride. What a beautiful picture of what Yeshua has done, and will do for us.

Sarah was Abraham's life partner. She was his superior as a prophetess. She accompanied him in all his journeys. In the aftermath of the Binding of Isaac, she died. How did the Binding contribute to her demise? What exactly was Saran's role in orchestrating her sudden death? In this Parsha Podcast we explore the very interesting phenomenon of "acts of Satan" that threaten to destabilize people after great achievements.

Chayei Sarah_What Does R' Asher Arieli Mumble On The Way Into Shiur!?
Rabbi Dunner explores the timeless allure of greed and duplicity through captivating stories of history's greatest con artists. From Gregor MacGregor's mythical paradise to Sarah Howe's hollow promises and James Reavis's fabricated aristocracy, these tales of audacious fraud echo the Torah's account of Ephron the Hittite in Chayei Sarah. Drawing powerful lessons from Abraham's integrity, Rabbi Dunner reminds us that honesty and enduring values always triumph over fleeting gains.
How do the Children of Chet know that Avraham is a holy man? They are not privy to his prophecies, and there are many wealthy warlords who no one would confuse for a man of God. So what makes Avraham different?

Why did Rebekah fall off her camel when she met Isaac? Is that even what really happened? And what does that have to do with marriage, partnership, and misogyny?

Jim brings us portion Chayei Sarah.What is all this talk about "Appetizers, Entrées and Desserts"? If you read Hebrews 5 the author talks about how the fellow believers are like babies because they are ignorant of the "Oracles of God." The majority of the time that this word is used is in connection with the Torah given by God to His people. Here at The Whole Testament, we believe that we are also often times "Baby Believers" not knowing the meat of God's Oracles. We want to learn how to "eat" solid food. We are using this as a model for our podcasts. We want to eat meals, full big meals with an appetizer, entrées, and a dessert. The appetizers are shorter more devotion like episodes that are designed to get you thinking about something in a new way. The entrees are intended to get your really thinking deeply about the scriptures, and the desserts are about how we can apply what we have learned in our lives through conversations with people who are trying to do it in their lives. The Whole Testament is supported by people like you. To help us continue the conversation, head to thewholetestament.com and click on the donate tab.
