This episode delves into the iconic encounter between Eliezer and Rebecca at the well, exploring the moment Eliezer runs toward her before she proves herself. Drawing on a mystical Midrash (Genesis Rabbah 60:15) that describes water rising to greet Rebecca, the discussion connects this idea with modern insights into altruism. Inspired by bioethicist Stephen Post, the episode highlights how acts of kindness create a unique "giver's glow"—a natural radiance that draws others in. Through this lens, we uncover the deeper significance of Rebecca’s actions and the timeless value of selfless giving in building meaningful connections.
