Sarah's Passing | Beyond the Story: Chayei Sarah (Ep. 5)

Beyond the Story

The Zohar identifies Avraham with the soul and Sarah with the body. Why, then, does Hashem tell Avraham to listen to Sarah? Isn’t the soul supposed to guide the body? In this episode of BEYOND the STORY, Rabbi Shais Taub explores what Avraham’s mourning for Sarah reveals about the relationship between body and soul. Through the teachings of Chassidus, we discover why the soul needs the body, what feminine spirituality teaches us about serving Hashem, and why ordinary physical life is central to our purpose.
