Bronstein teaching call - Hasidic lens on Parashat Bo

Hagar: The Immigrant Worker
Many, many years ago in a distant land a woman named Sarah was married to Abraham. Sarah was not able to bear children. She was distressed and often wondered how she could increase her standing in the community and keep the wealth she and her husband had acquired in their family, both of which depended on having children.

Sarah knew that Hagar needed the job at her house and would do whatever it took to keep it.
