YOUR BROTHER'S BLOOD IS CRYING:
BIBLICAL ORIGINS OF OUR FRACTURED SOCIETY

Can the stories of family strife provide us with the hope for repairing our own society?

As we examine several sibling-centered stories in the book of Genesis, we will draw a line from these narratives to the Jewish people today, noting the enduring theme of fractiousness among “siblings.”
