Description

Yitzchak is an anomaly - one of the Avot, and the building blocks of the nation, but with far fewer stories where he is the active character than either his father or his son. In this first shiur on Yitzchak that covers the end of Vayera to the end of Haye Sarah we will look at why Yitzchak is absent at his own betrothal, the effect of the Akeidah on the relations with his father, and the first meeting between Rivka and her new husband.
