Description

The famous story of the King Shlomo and the two mothers arguing over possession of a baby - and Shlomo's decision to "cut the baby in half." How did he know who was the real mother? (Hint: he knew who the real mother was before the fake mother endorsed the splitting of the baby!) Indeed, which of the two women who testified was the real mother? And what were the broader implications of the story? This is the rarely read Haftarah on Shabbat Parshat Miketz that is not Shabbat Chanukah.
