Shabbat Shiur: The Labours of Abraham
09:15 – 10:15
Remember the one about the ten trials of Abraham? No? According to numerous rabbinic and intertestamental sources, Abraham was given ten tests by God, which (of course) he passed with aplomb. But what were these tests, where do we learn about them, why ten trials (not seven or twelve or some other number), and what do they have to do with Parashat Lech Lecha? For answers, come and study the Ten Trials of Abraham with Rabbi Dr Deborah Kahn-Harris, Principal of the Leo Baeck College.
