Parshat Lech Lecha

This week we are introduced to Avram, his wife, Sarai, and his nephew, Lot. The slideshow above gives a quick summary of the Torah portion.

As you flip through the slideshow, think about these questions. Discuss them together, then record your thoughts below.

1. What do you think went through Avram's mind when he heard God talking to him for the first time? What would you have done?

2. Why did Sarai follow all of the decisions that Avram made? Do you think that she believed in God also or that she just went with Avram because he was her husband?

3. What does it mean to be a great nation?
