In Genesis 15 we read about God\’s promise to Abram (Later he becomes Abraham). God takes Abram out to look toward heavens and "count" the stars.
In the Book of Formation, written by Abraham, he reveals the knowledge God gave him during that event. God showed him the structure of the spiritual system and the ten sefirot.
15:17 God said "I brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees to give you this land to inherit it." "לָתֶת לְךָ אֶת-הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת, לְרִשְׁתָּהּ". "The Land" "הָאָרֶץ" in this form always refers to the Land of Israel where the whole creation began with the Aleph and centered around the "רֶץ" (more on this subject another time.)

The parasha tells us the famous story of the twelve spies that Moshe sent to spy on the Promised Land. Those twelve were heads of the tribes, not regular people.
The question that comes to mind is why send spies to check the land?

On Shabbat before Purim in addition to the regular Torah reading we read a small paragraph from the end of parashat "Ki Teitzeh". "Zachor Et Asher Asa Lecha Amalek BaDerech Betzetchem MiMitzrayim", "Remember what Amalek did to you on your way out of Egypt! (Deuteronomy 25)". What is so special about this shabbat?
