Description

We are told that Yitzchak will be born and then immediately dive into the story of Lot and Sedom. Why does this story have to precede the birth of Yitzchak? When we look deeply at what is produced through the story of Sedom, as well as the pact at and naming of Beer Sheva, we find the necessary groundwork being set for the final refinement of Avraham and the emergence of Yitzchak.
