Shir Shel Shavua

Count on Me

Dear Friends,

This week's parsha, Chayei Sarah, introduces us to Rebekah, as Abraham's servant seeks a wife for his son Isaac.

The servant prays to God to indicate which girl is destined to be Isaac's wife by having her offer water to the servant and his ten camels. Rebekah answers the call and eventually returns to Abraham's home to become Isaac's wife.

Inspired by her kindness and generosity, and her choice to be Isaac's faithful partner, comforting him after the death of his mother, we present to you Bruno Mars' "Count On Me" as this week's Shir Shel Shavua.

Shavua tov!
