    Bris Bein HaBasarim Covenant Between the Parts


    Answer the following questions, using the chart below
    1. Avram was told the Jews would be 400 years in a strange land. Rashi
    said this began with the birth of Yitzchak. How old was Avram when
    Yitzchak was born?
    2. Avram was told he would have a male child a year later when visited
    by the angels three days after his circumcision. How old was Avram
    when he had his circumcision at the end of this week’s Parsha?
    3. At the beginning of the Parsha, Avram was told to leave Charan. How
    old was he at this time?
    4. The Covenant Between the Parts occurred after more than half of this
    Parsha. Another place in the Torah says we were 430 years in a strange
    land, which we count from the Covenant Between the Parts. How old
    was Avram when this event occurred?
