In this week’s torah portion of “Vayeshev” Joseph tells his brothers of his dreams of them prostrating low before him. Surprisingly, or rather predictably, he finds himself in the bottom of a pit – cast away by those very same brothers. Yet, who we were is not who we will become.
Welcome to the “Raising Holy Sparks” podcast! Hope you enjoy these short weekly insights into the torah portion! This week we dive deep into the Parshah of Vayeshev.
Sources mentioned in connection with this week’s torah portion:
- “Give me a child until he is seven and I will show you the man.”
- Genesis 37:9 – “Joseph dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers, saying, “Look, I have had another dream: And this time, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”
- Exodus 3:14 – “I will be what I will be” – God.
Thanks for listening and looking forward to being on this journey through the books of the Torah with you!
