Vayera – Genesis 18:1 – 22:24

Shabbat Shalom!

This week in Parshat Vayera, we uncover the deep and ancient roots of one of history’s most enduring conflicts — the struggle between Ishmael and Isaac. What began as an act of faith and generosity from Sarah and Abraham set in motion a story that would shape nations and echo through generations.

Why did Sarah send Hagar and Ishmael away? What spiritual truths lie behind this painful separation? And how does this moment help us understand the challenges Israel faces to this very day?

Join us from the Biblical Heartland as we explore the faith, courage, and divine promise revealed in Parshat Vayera — and what it teaches us about God’s covenant and the destiny of His people.

Watch Parshat Vayera now and discover the ancient roots of today’s struggle, and the hope that still shines through Abraham’s faith.
