VaYetze 5781: The Twinning Relationship of Leah and Rachel

In this podcast we will look at the broad sweep of the narrative that includes the complex dynamic and relationship between two sisters married to one man. After summarizing the entire Torah portion through the lens of their relationship, we will focus on several midrashim that reinforce the love and connection that unifies them despite all of the underlying tension and reminds us of the eternal bond of siblings for the positive.
