D’var Torah – Vayeshev

The word vayeshev means “and he settled down” (set down) but with the power to create the change we need, let us switch the vowels to change the meaning of the word to vayasuv which means “and he will return”.

D’var Torah – Toldot

She is a tree of life to those who hold fast to her, and those who support her are fulfilled and happy.39 Proverbs 3:18.

D’var Torah – Abraham Go to yourself (your heart) 

Lech Lecha, this week’s Torah portion, teaches us how to deal with life trials. Abraham succeeded with all his trials. We can imagine him like a big and powerful vehicle that drives forward and continues ahead through all the obstacles that are placed in his way.
