In this week’s parsha three strangers pass by Abraham’s tent. What Abraham and Sarah do not know is that they are in fact angels. Abraham offers them food and a place to rest. One of them tells Abraham that Sarah will have a baby, and Sarah, who is listening in, laughs because she believes she is far too old to have children.<\/p>\n

Next, God tells Abraham about His plan to punish the people of Sodom because they are behaving so wickedly. Abraham is worried that innocent people in Sodom could suffer too, and argues with God that He must save the city if that is true. With real (and never-before seen) chutzpah he argues that God must take justice into account! God agrees that if ten innocent men can be found, He will spare the city (but unfortunately, even this deal does not save Sodom). Two of the angels visit Abraham\u2019s nephew, Lot, in Sodom to rescue him and his family before the city is destroyed.<\/p>\n

The baby promised to Abraham and Sarah is born and they name him Isaac. At the end of the parsha the Torah tells the famous story of the \u201cAkedat Yitzchak\u201d, also known as the \u201cBinding of Isaac.\u201d<\/p>\n
