Portion Va'yera


 
"Avraham was a hundred years his son Isaac was born ... And Sarah said ... who thought that Sarah will nurse sons for Avraham ... And Avraham made a great feast" (21, 5-8).

Rashi asks about that, in his commentary on the Torah: "What is the "boys" in the plural?"  And Explain: "On the feast the women brought their children with them and Sarah nursed them. They say: Sarah did not give birth, but a foundling brought from the market ", by feeding the babies, they proved that Sarah is giving birth, Isaac. Rashi adds: "And she nursed all of them".

Puzzling: to remove the doubts of the people, is not it was enough See that is breastfeeding her son Isaac, and why nursed them all?

Explanation: the life of the people of Israel is the purpose of creation of the world. Therefore, after the birth of Israel and giving of the Torah, cannot be, any command from G-d to all humanity not through the Torah and Israel. Existence Seven Laws of Noah by the nations of the world goes through with Israel: The children of Israel are those which yield all nations to maintain their seven commandments, and they should have them because that G-d commanded in the Torah!

First creation of Israel began the birth of Isaac to his parents Avraham and Sarah, as they say, "that through Isaac will have continuity of generations." Therefore, already at that moment began to be influenced by the people of Israel on the creation. Hence the answer to the question: On the birth of Isaac, the miracle was done to Sarah also affected nations. It was a day of abundant miracles and blessings to all nations, which were that Sarah, the Jewish mother, gave her milk wealth for nations as well. Therefore, even the language of Rashi: "Infertility is had a baby, a lot of patients healed in a day, many prayers were answered, and most of the world would laugh." It felt all the nations of the world that Israel is the chosen people, and is also a source of blessing for them.

Sarah's actions among the nations of the world were up on the actions of Avraham. While Avraham was doing special actions to bring the word of G-d and nations, Sarah's work was different. Is not done certain things on purpose to influence the nations of the world, but by her own miracle happened, was already in G-d's amazing power to do, say: "Infertility is had a baby ... a lot of patients recovered ...", and everyone saw right openly in the light of G-d.

Here we come to the subject of redemption: When the messiah will be revealed for all to see Israel's virtue. Effect on the nations of the world will resemble the effect of Sarah our mother - without any effort. So the Prophet said: "End of Days and was true to G-d's Temple Mount at the top of mountains ... and come to all nations, and left many nations ... to the G-d of Jacob."
