In this episode, we explore the biblical story of Sarai, Abram, and Hagar, focusing on Sarai's desperation to bear a child and the cultural context of surrogacy in the ancient Near East. We also examine Hagar's flight into the wilderness, her encounter with God, and how she gives God the name Eloroi, "The God Who Sees."
