chana did ask the question today: how come avram didn't cut the birds?

we posited maybe because they are very small. (i know they are symbolic, but we didn't discuss that yet).

we went through the old pesukim and the new. then i wanted to finish the perek, which was just 3 more pesukim detailing the names of the nations that avram would inherit. chana was hungry by that point and didn't want to do it. i insisted. she screamed. it was a question of do i insist on her doing the pesukim or do i insist on her moderating her tone. (i didn't think she was capable of both). she screamed through the pesukim and through rashi. then she ate. i hope we get to some more chazara today. but after a looooong break.
