As Chassidus teaches, everything in the Torah (bible) is a life lesson! – as the Rebbe teaches – the first instruction to the first Jew is certainly an all-encompassing lesson – what did God tell Abraham? – Lech lichah, leave to become who you are! – abandon me-artzichah, your cultural norms – abandon moiladitichah, your natural instinctual child-self – umibais avichah, abandon your identity as a son of your father – el ha-aretz asher arecah, your potential lies in following my direction/s!
