The story of Jacob demonstrates that positive participation in public life and God centered religious personal observance are the two keys to Jewish survival in a spiritually unfinished world.

Leah and Rachel’s pregnancy and childbirth experiences illustrate Judaism’s priority of having children. Several times this story mentions that God blesses the barren sisters with fertility.

Sarah represents the highest level of Jewish womanhood. Dedicated and loyal to God first, then her husband and children, community and posterity, we can emulate her example with confidence.

Torah encourages us to act in a righteous manner according to Divine justice. Divine justice considers life the highest priority. We know this from Torah, a moral document calling for the sanctity of the human being as made in God’s image. Laws embodied in Torah protect and promote life, not death.
