What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi YY Jacobson’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

a communication the same is true every other time hashem appears to somebody in a dream or in vivid reality all the way from adam to all the way down to avraham and further it's always with a message here there's no message he just appears to him he appears to him and what happened suddenly the story is interrupted by a second story he picks up his eyes and he sees three people is there a connection between the first passage and the second passage just two completely different stories hashem appeared to him we don't know why and then we're now stopped we finished with that story now we have a new story which would be very difficult a way to understand the context is difficult this is genesis chapter 18 bereishi's parakeet which begins with parasha's valeria pasek alef the structure is a very difficult structure because you look for the sequence and you don't see it hashem will later come back to talk to him again when the guests are about to leave and sarah laughs hashem speaks to avram and then when the guests leave hashem has a conversation with avraham about saddam you know he tells him that he wants to destroy his dawn because of the heinous crimes and the heinous evil and the selfishness and the narcissism and the narcissism and abramovinu starts fighting forced but it would be unjust to destroy its addiction together with russia and have this whole conversation with his daughter so how do we understand the structure and the context and that's why rashi says that the first passage is actually a separate story was sick it was the third day after his bris and hashem just came to visit him and when you visit you don't have to say
