## Resource

A father, a son, a mountain, and a command that has echoed through Jewish history for millennia—today we're confronting the Binding of Isaac. On this episode of our daily Jewish podcast, we're climbing Mount Moriah with Abraham and Isaac into one of the most challenging and profound stories in the Torah. What was Abraham thinking? What did Isaac understand? And what does it mean that the test ends at the very last moment? We'll explore the biblical text, rabbinic interpretations, and the enduring questions about faith, obedience, morality, and covenant. This one is as unsettling as it is foundational—and it still demands an answer.
