Parsha Panorama - Vayeira: Does Lech Lecha Repeat Itself? 🎬

A panoramic view of Parshas Vayeira with a focus on the following questions: 1. Why are there 2 "Avraham Avinu" Parshiyos? Why don't we cut straight to the birth of Yitzchak? What does Vayeira add to Lech Lecha? 2. Is Vayeira a repeat of Lech Lecha? In both Parshiyos:      • Avraham Avinu is promised a son      • Lot is in danger      • Sarah Imeinu is kidnapped by a king      • Avraham Avinu has a son      • Hagar is driven away      • Avraham Avinu sharpens knife for an important, painful trial What is the meaning behind these Parsha parallels? Why does history repeat itself?
