Toledot: Rabbi Daniel Peled-Schwartz— Why Yishak is the Most Underrated Forefather
This week, we are joined by Rabbi Daniel Peled-Schwartz of OU's JLIC at Columbia/Barnard to do a deep dive into Yishak's character. Because the Torah writes the least about Yishak out of the Avot, he is often overlooked and underappreciated. However, he is actually the forefather from whom we have the most to learn in conducting our daily lives.

We delve into why Abraham sent his Eved to find a wife for Yishak immediately after Sarah passed away, what Eved Abraham was looking for in a wife for Yishak, and what we can take away from this process when approaching dating and relationships in our own lives.

In this week's episode, we discuss the story of Akedat Yishak. Specifically, how could Abraham, the paradigm of Hesed, be willing to commit child sacrifice, and how does this relate to what the test of the Akedah is?
