Parashat Va'era 5780 (ep. 2)

Parashat Va'era  begins the showdown between Moses (& Aaron) and Pharaoh, between the God of Israel and the Gods of Egypt, between a slave uprising and an intransigent ruler. Join Aner (grade 4), Ezra (grade 5), and Karen (grade 8) as they conduct a close reading of Exodus 7:8-14 and discuss the nuances of serpents, crocodiles, and heeding the call to truth and justice.
