Vayeshev

Joseph, the coat, the brothers, and the pit.

Three ways to find your angle

Every strong D'var Torah picks one lens and goes deep. Try one of these on Vayeshev:

  • Structural

    How is something built, taken apart, or organized?

  • Interpersonal

    How are people treating each other — and what could they do better?

  • Curveball

    What's the weirdest, funniest, most unexpected connection to your life?

Spark 3 angles for Vayeshev

Questions to answer in your own words

  1. What's one moment in Vayeshev you can't stop thinking about?
  2. Who in this portion do you actually understand — and who confuses you?
  3. If this story happened at your school this week, how would it go?
  4. What does Vayeshev ask you to do differently?

Write these out longhand. The friction is the point.
