!Short Clips! Living With The Times – Current Situation in Israel – An Archetypal Struggle

Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman – The struggle between Yaakov and Esav in this week’s upcoming parasha (Vayishlach) is a struggle that has been going on throughout the ages including now in recent times. Rabbi Trugman explains the very interesting gematria that Yaakov + Satan = Yisroel. Yaakov (Jacob) plus the Satan (the guardian angel of Esav that Yaakov wrestled with) equals Yisroel (the name the angel in this wrestling event that Yaakov won and subsequently the name Hashem gave later on in the narrative).

Hand on Foot – Toldos (Rabbi Dovid Kaplan) (Weekly Parsha)

Rabbi David Kaplan – Shares some aspects of the Weekly Parsha we just read (Toldos). One interesting topic was the name Esav (who was Yaakov’s twin brother) – his name means complete – meaning he felt he was complete and had nothing else to learn a complete human being. This is opposite Yaakov (and the Jewish way) that says we are not complete that there is always room to continue to grow throughout our life. Two different perspectives to teach us today.
