Scope and Content

Rabbi Ingber uses AirBnB headquarters as an example of a place that looks great to those on the outside but may not be as an example of why people may choose to leave not very good situations. He uses the example of some Jews not wanting to leave Egypt or slavery in the Torah as an allegory for current situations in the world when victims of domestic abuse may choose to stay or go back to their situations. He says that the passage where it states for slave holders to pierce the ears of the slave who does not want to leave to the door as a way of saying it is not a good house and to beware what goes on inside.
