  I think it was worth mentioning regarding the story of R' Chaim thirer From chernowitz with his son,

  that the name of his book is באר מיים חיים which means 'well of living water' & The fact that he "took" the 'kav' of yitzchak & that the story of his son was brought down in that book fits quite well-p.i.with all which was mentioned in the class וק״ל

  ניצן גרזי קיבוץ בית השיטה

  שלום וברכה הרב

  דבר ראשון תודה רבה על השעורים המדהימים הכנים והמתאימים לצורכי השעה  הדור.

  משפחתי ואני נהנים מאד מהשעורים (כבר כמה שנים ,מתנצל שלא שיתפנו את הבעת התודה עד עכשיו) .

  לפני שבוע חשבתי  ושיתפתי באחת הקבוצות את חידוש שדומה לחידוש שאמרת בשיעור לגבי אליעזר עבד אברהם "שדולה ומשקה" .שאברהם אומר להשם שאין לו יורש מלבד אליעזר שהוא דולה ומשקה מתורת רבו לאחרים. לכאורה למה מזכירים את מעלתו  כאשר אברהם מסביר שהוא לא רוצה שימשיך אותו? ועוד יותר מכך, שלא רוצה שיצחק יתחתן עם בתו אלא שאליעזר ילך ויביא ליצחק את רבקה?

  אלא שאברהם רוצה שממשיכו יפעל גם מכח עצמו בנביעה פנימית, ולכן גם רוצה את רבקה כאישה ליצחק כי היא אומרת "אלך" ורשי מפרש שתלך מעצמה.גם אם לא ירשו לה .

  ולכן מאוד נהנתי ששבוע לאחר מכן אני שומע את החידוש ממך.

  רציתי לשאול 

    האם החידוש של בן ביתי דמשק אליעזר "שדולה ומשקה" שרשי מביא כסיבה מדוע אברהם אינו רוצה אותו כממשיכו, האם יש לכך מקור קדום, והאם יש לרבי התייחסות לכך?

  תודה רבה

    Davening with a Minyan is an amazing opportunity. Yet for grandparents to attend a bar mitzvah of a grandson when possible is also a very very powerful opportunity, as it can bring great joy, inspiration, and love to the grandchild, and help him during this fateful time as he accepts the yoke of Torah and mitzvot. So you have to see the pros and the cons.

  Question for Rabbi YY

  When you say that yitzchok didn't look like Avraham, did you mean physically or by his behavior? Isn't there a commentary about Yitzchok's birth that he looked like Avraham so that no one would doubt the paternity of Avraham due to his advanced age.?

  Do you think...

  that Yitzchak wanted to give all these teachings to Esauv too?

    Seems you are answering that question now. Yitzchak thought he WAS giving these blessings to Esauv... What then, were the blessings he would have given to Yitzchak? The ones that he utlimately did give to Esauv?

    In Yitro (20:14) it says they saw sound.

    As Yitschok was able to see smell.

    Chassidus holds the explanations.
