What is the true meaning of greatness?

Avraham argues with Hashem, using what he saw in the stars as his evidence. What does it mean that Avraham saw in the stars that he was not destined to have a child? And how can Avraham argue with Hashem about what will happen? If Hashem tells Avraham that he will have a child, how can Avraham even think of suggesting otherwise? And finally, what does it mean that Hashem took Avraham "above the stars"?

When Hashem tells Avraham to leave his home and embark on a journey, Avraham is told “lech lecha me'artzecha u'mimoladitcha...” (Breishit 12:1). This directive is conspicuously odd. Avraham is told where to leave from, but he is not told his destination. What kind of journey lacks a destination?

Why did Hashem specifically choose to destroy the world with a flood. Hashem could have chosen any form of destruction, and yet, He chose water. We naturally associate parshas Noach with the mabul and the teivah, but couldn't there have been another form of this story? What is the significance of water?

We begin this year’s Torah cycle by reading Parshas Bereishis. While many think that Adam Ha’Rishon alone was worthy of a fascinating creation story, every single one of us has our own unique creation story as well.

What is the nature of time and ownership? Why is stealing such a terrible thing? How are we to understand the relationship between you and the things you own?

What is the nature of mockery and sarcasm? Why is this such a dangerous character trait?

Why do we care so much about what other people think? Why do we chase after honor, fame, and external recognition?

What was this cosmic battle really about? I think you'll find that it's deeper than you might have thought.

 If you ask most people what Avraham contributed to the world, they will most probably tell you, "Monotheism". However, there is a deeper layer to this that most people do not know. 

In this inspiring lecture we will reveal the secret gift that Avraham gave to the world.
