Chaye Sarah - 2024

Chevre, this week’s parsha is Chaye Sarah (חַיֵּ֣י שָׂרָ֔ה). This parsha is very focussed on family continuity. Sarah passes, Avraham buys a place to bury her. And then sends an agent out to find a wife for Yitchak. There is the whole process of the negotiation for Rivka and she is brought back to Yitchak. Once the family continuation is settled, Avraham actually remarries before passing away himself. In the technical world, building systems for high availability (which you could call continuity) has been a stable for a long time.
