Akeidas Yitzchak.

An event that continues to shape the Jewish People, giving us endless zechuyos and molding our collective character for all time. What sets the Akeidah apart from, l’havdil, some of the death cults of our enemies? What was the purpose of the test? Why was Avraham’s response so mind blowing? Think about it. He got up early in the morning to kill his child.

The answers to these questions give us the direction we need in our own challenges. In The Shmuz on the Parsha, Rabbi Shafier offer a practical, three point survival guide that you can use to step up to any difficulty. Entitled ‘The Anatomy of a Nisayon’, this shmuz will give you clarity, chizuk and understanding, no matter what you are going through.
