Source Citation

AUDIT HOLD — exact primary-source locus not yet established. The current repository wording is a reconstructed warning-summary and is not being presented as a verified quotation.

Lemma / focus: השמר לך פן תשיב.

Sefaria — Genesis 24:6

AUDIT HOLD — Source Verification Required

Not a verified Chazal quotation

The existing Hebrew formulation has not been tied to an exact primary-source witness to the project's standard. It is intentionally withheld from presentation as Core Text until the underlying source is established.

Audit status: Do not treat the previous reconstructed wording as a quotation from Chazal. The page remains structurally intact while source verification is pending.

Type of Learning

Derash on the verse (plain sense with classical emphasis) — not a formal named middah of the 13: the doubled warning is read as an absolute bar on returning the son to the old land.

What Is Learned

Avraham strictly forbids taking Yitzchak back to the land of his own birth; the son of the covenant is not to leave the land that was promised.
