Suggests that the Akedah offers insights into thinking about our unanswered High Holy Days questions, that Abraham was struggling with the questions of his yetzer ha-ra , which he "beat to pieces," so that he didn't use his unanswered questions to abandon his faith in God. (3 pp.)

Teaching series presented by New Life Christian Fellowship. This is session 11 of 18. The story of the binding of Isaac in Genesis 22 is a core event in the history the Jewish faith, and subsequently of the church. To understand this better, we consider Hebrews 11:8-20, which is largely taken from the writings of the Talmud, and do a parallel comparison of the Christian and Jewish traditions concerning this story, utilizing Jewish texts to illuminate the writings of the apostles.
