Join Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz recorded on Clubhouse on January 5th 2023. Jacob, upon his reunion with Joseph exclaims: לֹ֣א פִלָּ֑לְתִּי "I had never imagined" that I would see my son again. The word he uses for imagining is the same word we use for praying, so we imagine prayer as a form of imagining.
