Toldot - 2024

Chevre, this week’s parsha is Toldot (תּוֹלְדֹ֥ת). In this week’s parsha there is an episode where Yitchak’s team are in confrontation with the herdsman of Gerar. Yitchak’s team dig a well and the others take them over. This happens several times. Eventually, Yitchak gets to Rechovot and there they are able to maintain their well and to stay for a while. I find this episode interesting, water was and is an important commodity, especially in the climate of Eretz Yisrael.
