SUNSET, SUNRISE! (VIDEO)

Rabbi Dunner asks why the sun rose after Jacob’s fight with the mysterious “Sar Shel Eisav” in Parshat Vayishlach. The Talmud refers to this phenomenon in the context of an odd story involving Rabbi Akiva, Rabban Gamliel and Rabbi Yishmael.

In a beautiful exposition, Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Rimanov (1745-1815) ties all the pieces together, and offers an inspiring message of hope. Rabbi Dunner presents it all, adding a timely message for a world affected by the devastating COVID-19 pandemic.
