Aleph Beta: Lech Lecha: Was Abraham The First Wandering Jew?

By Rabbi David Fohrman

In the video for Parshat Lech Lecha (Genesis 12:1-17:27), David and Immanuel ask - why is it that, though God keeps reassuring Abraham that this land is his, he refuses to settle down? God just promised him the land - why wouldn't he mark his territory? To answer this, we are reminded that the stories of Abraham occur in a larger context - and specifically, right after the catastrophe of the Tower of Babel - and we can answer the question: what is it about Abraham that really makes him special, and the father of our nation?
