Description

Part of a series entitled, "Founding Families - Personalities in Sefer Bereishit" given at the Young Israel of West Rogers Park. This week, we explore the life of Hagar, her marriage to Avraham, and her relationship with Sarah. Was she a servant or a wife? What was her background and what motivated her actions? Did Sarah oppress her? What is her status within the family of Avraham and Sarah? These questions are discussed while delving into Bereishit chapters 16 and 21.
