Description

Benaiah was King Solomon’s favorite servant, and he was very good at his job – maybe a little too good. In order to humble Benaiah, the king assigned him an impossible task: find a magical ring that can make the king happy when he’s sad and sad when he’s happy. Can Benaiah do it? This story is retold by Rabbi Leah Berkowitz, spiritual leader of Vassar Temple in Poughkeepsie, NY.

Judaism has a deep and rich tradition of storytelling, passing down stories from one generation to the next. To carry on that tradition, Stories We Tell from ReformJudaism.org will share a new story with you every Thursday. Whether you listen while driving to work, preparing Shabbat dinner, or taking your kids to school, each episode will give you a new story to reflect on and discuss with the people in your life. Stories We Tell is a project of the Union for Reform Judaism, a leading voice in the discussion of modern Jewish life.
