I taught small children in Talmud Torah, in one of the classes they taught them about the hospitality of our ancestor Abraham.
After a while I once went to visit a friend, whose son is studying in my classroom. I knocked on the door, and the three-year-old opened the door. I asked, "Dad at home?"
"No, he's asleep."
"Well, I'll come another time."
Then the boy looked at me with the eyes of an angel and said to me: 'The rabbi will come in'.
I really could not refuse, I could not break his heart, the heart of an angel. I went in.
Then I hear all sorts of strange sounds emanating from the kitchen, and after a few minutes the boy returns from the respectable meter he is carrying, and places in front of me a huge bowl with five packets of margarine, two frozen carp and a head of red cabbage, and says: 'The rabbi will eat ...'.
This good, this love of grace - this is the seed of our father Abraham. "
The rabbi taught us that in this child and in his childish hospitality the "Abrahamic" was revealed
Imprinted in all of us in the most natural and simple way.
