Around the Shabbat Table

1. How do you think our family stories and memories help us make better choices today?
2. Why do some people fear freedom and prefer constraints, even when given the choice to be free?
3. Why do you think God chose patience over immediate intervention when confronting human moral failings? Have there been other times in the Tanach where this has come up?

These questions come from this week’s Family Edition to Rabbi Sacks’ Covenant & Conversation. For an interactive, multi-generational study, check out the full edition at https://rabbisacks.org/covenant-conversation-family-edition/mishpatim/the-slow-end-of-slavery/
