  • Rosh Hashanah 5780: Two Brothers Rabbi Lisa J
    Rosh Hashanah 5780: Two Brothers Rabbi Lisa J. Grushcow, D.Phil., Temple Emanu-El-Beth Sholom Two brothers. Two brothers, standing, at the foot of a mountain. One of them will go up the mountain with their father, a journey fraught with fear and glory, which will transform the history of faith. The other will be left behind. The Akeda, the binding of Isaac which we read on Rosh Hashanah, seems to come out of nowhere. But, like most family legends, there is a back story. What could possibly have happened, to lead to God calling Abraham to sacrifice his son? Most explanations have to do with Abraham – what he did wrong, what he did right. But one zooms in on the relationship between Isaac and Ishmael, the brothers. They are fighting, as siblings do, about who is better, and who is more beloved. Ishmael says to Isaac: “I’m better than you, because I was circumcised when I was thirteen!” And Isaac shoots back: “No, I’m better than you, because I was circumcised when I was only eight days old!” (Note their mothers aren’t invited to give their perspective here; we can only imagine Hagar and Sarah comparing notes). Ishmael replies: “No way! I was thirteen! I could have argued, I could have run away, but I didn’t.” “Oh yeah?” Isaac says, “You think you’re so special? Even if God appeared to me now and told me to cut off one of my limbs, I would do it.”i And it happened after those things, that God tested Abraham, and said, take your son…ii In a world in which the greatest virtue was offering your whole self up to God, no wonder Jewish tradition maintains that Isaac was the son taken up to be sacrificed, and Ishmael was the one left at the foot of the mountain.iii And no wonder Islamic tradition said that Ishmael, their ancestor, was the one that Abraham took.
