The Life of Sarah
What is the legacy of our first matriarch? And what in the world does she have to do with Esther?
Parshat Chayei Sarah, literally ‘The Life of Sarah,’ opens with the story of her death. In this video, Rabbi Fohrman illustrates how a peculiar wording in the Torah’s description of Sarah’s death actually teaches us something amazing about how she lived her life. He even uncovers a fascinating connection between Sarah and Queen Esther, which reveals the hidden majesty of Sarah’s life.
