Parsha Lech Lecha - Go Forth

By Jaime Noriega | 2018

Introduction

The portion of the Scripture for this week opens with the divine calling of Abraham to leave his country, his people and his family in order to embark upon a journey to a new land.

Abraham, through his covenant with G-d, was to be blessed and be a blessing to all humanity. Interestingly enough, the Hebrew word for blessing (brakha) may be changed to spring of water (breikah) with just one minor vowel change.

God is the source of all blessing, and Yeshua is the fountain of springs of living water (John 4:14)

I will bless those who bless you, but I will curse anyone who curses you; and by you all the families of the earth will be blessed.

Genesis 12:3
