Machshava:

Avraham,  Chassidut 

Parsha:

Toldot 

Personalities:

Lubavitcher Rebbe 

Description

Avraham and Yitschak are not mere heroes to be placed on a pedestal. Instead we should see them as paradigms to emulate. The Rebbe sees Avraham as the educator/ mentor who brings positivity to the lives of his disciples without necessarily transforming them. Yitzchak in contrast transforms his disciples, uncovering their inner passion. This is a more risky path, but potentially a more rewarding one. Likkutei Sichos Chelek Aleph VaYera Sicha 2 Text Based
