1. Revelation to Avraham vs. Revelation to Moshe

   Rabbi Dr. Tamir Granot

   God's revelation to Moshe after the sin of the Golden Calf parallels God's revelation to Avraham in the beginning of Parashat Vayera. The comparison positions Moshe in a similar status to Avraham: both are forefathers of the nation, and the two revelations relate to the prophet's prayer for a sinning public who is about to be destroyed. Perhaps their ability to pray is the reason God chooses to make them fathers and leaders of the nation.
