  • Understanding the argument between Yitzchok and Yishmael regarding the ideal way to perform Mitzvas Bris Milah. Is it better to perform the Mitzvah as an intelligent thirteen-year-old or an innocent baby?

  • Understanding the story of \u05d0\u05d7\u05e8 (R' Elisha Ben Avuya), a great sage who went off the Derech. The Gemara cites the Pasuk \u05d8\u05d5\u05d1 \u05d0\u05d7\u05e8\u05d9\u05ea \u05d3\u05d1\u05e8 \u05de\u05e8\u05d0\u05e9\u05d9\u05ea\u05d5, ascribing the father's wrong Kavanah during the Bris, which affected \u05d0\u05d7\u05e8 later in life.
