Lech Lecha in a Nutshell

The name of the Parshah, "Lech Lecha," means "Go Forth" and it is found in Genesis 12:1.

G‑d speaks to Abram, commanding him, “Go from your land, from your birthplace and from your father’s house, to the land which I will show you.” There, G‑d says, he will be made into a great nation. Abram and his wife, Sarai, accompanied by his nephew Lot, journey to the land of Canaan, where Abram builds an altar and continues to spread the message of a one G‑d.
