Hebrew keyword: וַיָּרָץ (Vayaratz – 'He ran')
Significance: Avraham’s 'running' to greet guests is legendary. Chazal (our Sages) highlight the urgency and joy in performing chesed (kindness). This is not a reluctant act; he seeks opportunities for kindness and pursues them energetically.
You may sometimes hesitate before helping, unsure if it’s worth the effort. Avraham inspires you to act with kindness eagerly and with a full heart. Hospitality—welcoming others, even strangers—reflects deep emunah and brings Hashem’s presence into your daily life.
Reflection: Today, look for a small act of chesed you can run toward!
