Description

Avraham is told Lech Lecha and leaves everything behind…except Lot. Why does Lot come along? In this piece of Nesivos Shalom we explore how these two individuals represent the light and dark sides of the middah of chessed, what it really takes to leave everything behind and fully strive for a life of spirituality, and how those choices forge us into individuals worth of inheriting the Land of Israel. (Bereishit, Lech Lecha: Inyan Avraham V'Lot, pp. 82-84)
