Scope and Content

The overarching themes of the sermon are on envy, jealousy, and feeling joy for others achievements. This is couched in the story of Jethro (Yitro), and his approaching Moses prior to him climbing Mount Sinai to receive the ten commandments. Rabbi Ingber says that it is not good enough to just be a good Jew but also be a good human in this aspect. One must find the joy in the joy of others.
