Prayers of the Avot: Avraham

This session is dedicated to the memory of all those who were murdered by Hamas on and after Simhat Torah in southern Israel, and to the memory of the soldiers who fell in the days of war on and since that day.   ה’ יקום דמם . And may the merit of our learning be dedicated to those kidnapped by Hamas. May they be speedily freed. 

In this series we will be studying passages in the Talmud that can give us insights into the activities and personalities of the Avot – Avraham, Yitzhak and Yaakov.

We will start with Talmudic discussions of prayers of the Avot. In this session we will discuss two passages in the Talmud that refer to prayers of Avraham.

I have attached here sources for the class, which you are welcome to read over beforehand.
