Negev – lecture 5

In this lecture we delve into the character of Isaac, “man of the Negev,”.
It seems that Isaac is described as a copy of Avraham. Digging and naming the same wells, his similar encounter with the King of Grar, his desire to descend to Egypt. Even in the story of the Akedah – Isaac is passive and simply follows his father’s path. But it is really more complex: after the Akedah, Isaac chooses his own path and goes to the Negev. But eventually and with Divine guidance, he returns to the path of Avraham. Let’s follow his unique path!
