Rishon

  1. Avraham travels to Eretz Canaan:
  • Hashem commands Avraham to leave his homeland to a land that he will be shown.
  • Avraham is blessed that through doing so, he will turn into a great nation and become famous. He will receive the power of blessing and curse.
  • Avraham was 75 years old at the time.
  • He left together with Lot, his nephew, and his wife Sarai, and all their followers, towards the land of Canaan.
  • Avraham arrived at the town of Shechem, known as Eilon Moreh.
  • Hashem revealed Himself to Avraham there, and told him that his descendants will receive this land. Avraham built an altar in that area.
  • Avraham settled his tent on the mountain between Beis Ail and Ai and built an altar there.
  • Avraham continued traveling towards the south.

 

  1. Avraham travels to Egypt due to the famine:
  • There was a famine in Eretz Canaan and Avraham went down towards Egypt, to settle there temporarily.
  • When they came close to Egypt, Avraham told his wife that he realized how beautiful she is and that when the Egyptians will see her, they will kill him, her husband, and let her live. He therefore asked Sarai to tell them that she is his sister, and thus he too will live.
