Torah shorts Parshat Toldot

[Music] foreign [Music] in this week's Torah portion the Torah Begins by saying which means these are the children of Isaac son of Abraham Abraham fathered Isaac wait a second isn't that a little bit repetitive Abraham Father the Son of Abraham I remember your cooking used to be on the high point not today yeah if you had a high point it wouldn't be your cookie I remember when email used to make good food like 15 years ago and never mind thought for me for tall for me uh maybe we shouldn't have been that obvious ah she's very sensitive it's okay yeah good night all right guys here comes the answer did you know that avraham and Yitzhak actually looked nothing alike they looked so different that the haters started spreading rumors that Yitzhak wasn't actually the son of Abraham hello I'm Dr Ramesh can I see a parental Guardian what what he doesn't look like my son well he doesn't have my face so because of all these rumors going around that yitzuk wasn't actually the son of aphram Hashem made a miracle and made Yitzhak look exactly like aphram and that is precisely why the Torah is repetitive because the second time that it says Abraham father Isaac is teaching us that God made this exact miracle question is why mention this story now this story happened a lot earlier now Isaac's already older and he's about to start his own family yeah Mom how are you I I've got something to tell you you know on Passover when when when we tell you that Elijah drinks from the cup we actually just pour the wine back in I know it's hard you're lying to me that did you know about this so to explain this we have to look a little bit deeper Opera Mini suck not only did not look alike they said very different personalities avram was much more of a social person he was much more into working with other people and yet Sak on the other hand it was much more reserved he liked doing self work think about it like this a lot of times we experience something very outgoing very inspiring and at that moment we feel Ultra inspired foreign the hard part is waking up the next day and implementing it in your own life of course you were inspired the day before but when it comes down to grind time can you do it [Music] that's it I'm doing this [Music] that is precisely why the Torah awaits till now because only now when Isaac is old and developed do we see how Abraham and Isaac have separate personalities and the Torah is coming to teach us that although they may have had separate personalities they are both working for the same goal and the goal is that even after the inspiration and after the excitement we still have enough self-control to eternalize foreign [Music]
