In Parshat Re’eh God commands the Israelites to bring their offerings only to the Temple “in the place I will choose.” But wait… we've heard before about a sacrifice location shrouded in mystery? The binding of Isaac shares this and many other parallels with Parshat Re’eh. But what are we supposed to make of these connections? How does Parshat Re’eh shed light on the binding of Isaac, and how does that story illuminate the mitzvot of Parshat Re’eh?

Join Rabbi Fohrman and Beth Lesch as they unlock the powerful lessons in these parallels.
