November 21, 2014 Although part of the the blessing upon Isaac is the promise that those who curse him will be cursed, the focus of the Parasha is on blessings, and not curses. In fact, the Hebrew word for blessed (baruch) is so significant in this Parasha that out of 106 verses, baruch appears 34 times!
