English: “And he rose early…” It was taught: Avraham instituted the morning prayer, as it is said, “And Avraham rose early in the morning to the place where he had stood,” and “standing” means only prayer, as it is said, “And Pinchos stood up and prayed.”
On the daf / in context: The daily Shacharis is traced to Avraham’s early rising and standing before Hashem at the same place where he had interceded for Sedom.
Type of Learning
Derash on the verse (Bavli sugya) — not a formal named middah of the 13. The verb “amad” is equated with prayer by means of a parallel verse.
What Is Learned
Avraham established the morning prayer; his early rising and standing before Hashem is the scriptural source for Shacharis.
