1. "And Chanoch Walked With the Lord"

   Rabbi Amnon Bazak

   Among the various characters in Parashat Bereisheet, the Torah briefly mentions the mysterious Chanoch son of Yered. Chanoch is clearly a unique personality, who was said to "walk with God." What is the meaning of the verse "And Chanoch walked with the Lord, and was no more, for the Lord took him"? Why did the Lord take him? Why was Chanoch's life shorter than other men of his generation? And what is the significance of the brief episode about Chanoch? This lesson links four central characters in the beginning of Sefer Bereisheet - Adam, Chanoch, Noah, and Avraham - and questions man's place before God, and his position in the world.
