Lekh Lekha | Insights from the Weekly Torah Portion: “Be’er Lakhai Roi” – “The Well of the Living One Who Sees Me”

Rabbi Jonathan Kligler · 03 Lekh Lekha | Insights from the Weekly Torah Portion
 

Hagar runs away from her mistress Sarah’s mistreatment. At an oasis in the desert an angel of God comforts and reassures her. Hagar names the place Be’er Lakhai Roi – The Well of the Living One Who Sees Me. This well will also play a central part in Isaac’s life, and we explore that hidden story in today’s class.

Commitment to Sustainability

We care deeply for our corner of holy ground — 35 acres that includes welcoming trails through woods, across fields, and past wetlands and ponds.

We share the Jewish approach to living in balance and harmony with the earth. We do it through teaching and we do it through practice. 

Our goal is to be an organization that fulfills the Torah teaching to be Shomrei Adamah: Guardians of the Earth. Our actions have been recognized by Hazon, the largest Jewish environmental organization in the United States.
