Parashat Noach 5782: The Good Enough Hero

Description: From the first record of his birth, the expectations of Noah were high: he was named in the hopes of bringing “comfort” to a struggling world. Did Noah, later described as “blameless in his age,” live up to the hopes placed upon him? We will explore divergent views on this question, which hinge on the qualifier “in his age”. Did Noah attain greatness? Or will he forever be seen as simply “good enough”?
