One of the most challenging stories in the Torah is the Akeida when G-d commanded Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac.

This story raises some strong ethical questions. How could G-d ask for human sacrifice? How can Abraham agree to do it without questioning?

A fascinating discussion of the story of the Akeida and the ethical lessons we learn from it.
