## Resource

מָצִינוּ We observe דְעִקָּר חִבָּתוֹ שֶׁל הקב"ה לְאַבְרָהָם אָבִינוּ עָלָיו הַשָּׁלוֹם that G‑d cherished Avraham mainly הָיָה לְמַעַן אֲשֶׁר יְצַוֶּה — כְּפֵרוּשׁוֹ יְחַבֵּר — אֶת בָּנָיו וְאֶת בֵּיתוֹ because “he commands his children and his household.” Now, the word here translated “commands” (yetzaveh) can also mean “connect.” הַיְנוּ This implies דְּכָל גּוֹדֶל עֲבוֹדָתוֹ בְּהַנִּסְיוֹנוֹת that all of Avraham’s prodigious endeavors in the face of his trials אֵינוֹ בְּעֶרֶךְ לְגַבֵּי הָא דִיצַוֶּה וִיחַבֵּר אֲחֵרִים pale in comparison to his commanding and connecting others — מַה שֶׁיְּזַכֶּה אֲחֵרִים by making them, too, meritorious.
