This shiur explores why the first blessing of the Amida concludes with 'Mogen Avraham' and not with Yitzchak or Yaakov. Drawing from Rashi and Torah Ohr, it explains how Avraham's boundless kindness requires a shield, balancing Chesed and Gevurah, and how this theme runs through creation and redemption.
