Question for vayeira
Avraham sits at the entrance to his tent

Where in the Torah do we have anything related to door/doorway/entrance

I can think of a few. I’m sure you tanach geniuses will come up with more.

On Shabbos Chanuka when it falls out on Rosh Chodesh. We say Al hannisim, retzei and yaaleh veyavo. No skipping!


It can get even longer than that- if you are also at Shabbos Sheva Brachos and have to add that whole section! We did that one Chanukah.

In Shmuel Aleph, the Aron is captured and taken to one of the Pelishti cities and set up opposite their idol Dagon.
The next morning, the arms and head of Dagon had fallen off and landed at the entrance of the room. ( wow it's been years since I came across this story. )
