In this final session in the three-part series, we complete the virtual tour by reaching and touring the southernmost of the biblical cities associated with the Patriarchs: Be’er Sheva. We also discuss the third Patriarch – Yaakov – his selection over his brother Esav, and his unique contribution to what was started by his grandfather Avraham and father Yitzchak. As we saw with Yitzchak and Hebron, there is an uncanny parallel between Yaakov’s specific mission and the nature and character of the city Be’er Sheva. We also discuss the significance and role of the “rejected” brothers Yishmael and Esav to the mission of the Chosen People. Based on the ideas and philosophy elaborated on in my Am Levadad series: https://rabbihaber.net/am-levadad/.
