Biblical Parallels Index – Bereshit 46
Overview
This index is meant to help the reader explore Biblical parallels, be they two accounts of the same event, stories with similar motifs and themes, or units of text which are linguistically similar and perhaps alluding one to the other. The page includes links to tools that aid in comparison, primary sources that touch upon the parallels, and summaries of and links to articles which analyze them in depth.Avraham and Yaakov
There are many parallels between the narratives of Avraham and Yaakov. For example, in Bereshit 46, the language of Hashem’s revelation to Yaakov ( וַיֹּאמֶר יַעֲקֹב יַעֲקֹב וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּנִי) closely parallels His revelation to Avraham at the Akeidah: (וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְרָהָם אַבְרָהָם וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּנִי).1
Articles
- See Avraham and Yaakov for an exploration of the parallels between the two narratives
- See The Parallel Between Yaakov and Avraham by Professor Yonatan Grossman for analysis of the parallels, with a focus on understanding why Yaakov is encouraged to leave the land of Israel.
