#ShabbatShalom - Welcome to this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion) called Vayishlach (And He Sent).
Please read along as we study the portion of Scripture that will be read in synagogues around
the world during this week’s Shabbat (Saturday) service.
We know you will be blessed!
In last week’s Torah portion Vayetzei, Jacob left his unjust father-in-law, Laban, while he was off shearing his sheep. Fearing that Laban would keep his daughters, Leah and Rachel, Jacob stole away with all he had: his sons, his two wives, and all of his livestock, heading for the mountains of Gilead. In Parasha Vayishlach and after 22 years in Haran, it was likely difficult for Jacob to free himself from Laban’s wicked manipulation and control, but he did succeed. We can imagine that he was anticipating with great joy his return to his ancestral homeland of Canaan; however, in order to do so, he had to first pass through Edom, the territory of Esau, his estranged brother.

Simchat Torah Beit Midrash - Joy of God’s Teaching and Instruction
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16
What Does It Mean to Choose Life? Every decision you make can be made in a way that you are “choosing life.”
The Torah is God’s constitution; it is His teaching and instruction; it is eternal and it is life.
His Spirit is pure Light, abundant with untouchable, supreme, sovereign power.
God is the Source of all life.
וַיִּשְׁלַח Vayishlach means “and he sent.”
When Jacob journeyed back to Canaan after a 20-year stay in Charan, he sent messengers ahead to Esau with a message of reconciliation. When they returned with the news that Esau was coming with 400 men, he immediately responded with extreme fear and worry. In spite of Jacob’s inner fears and worries, he overcame and prevailed.

Welcome to Kashrut Malchut Shamayim
In Parsha Vayishlach,
as Esau approaches with an army of men, Jacob divides his family and prays for his life. Separated from his wives and family and all his worldly possessions, Jacob is left all alone on the other side of the River Jabbok. After wrestling with an angel until the break of dawn, and proving his strength under the most difficult of circumstances, Jacob and the angel reach a stalemate. Jacob refuses to let go until the angel gives him a blessing – and the angel changes his name to Israel. In solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Israel, we celebrate our homeland with an Israeli Inspired Shabbat menu.

And Jacob sent [vayishlach וַיִּשְׁלַח] messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
Genesis 32:4 [3h]
Shabbat Shalom - Parasha Vayishlach - Overcoming Anger and Reconciling !!!
This week’s Parasha (Torah Portion) is called Vayishlach (And He Sent).
Shabbat Shalom
Please read along as we study the portion of Scripture that will be read in synagogues around the world during this week’s Shabbat (Saturday) service.
We know you will be blessed!
PARASHA VAYISHLACH (And He Sent)
Genesis 32:4 (v. 3 in Hebrew Bibles)–36:43; Obadiah 1:1–21; Ephesians 4:1–32
“And Jacob sent [vayishlach וַיִּשְׁלַח] messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.”
(Genesis 32:4 [Hebrew Bibles: v. 3])
(Genesis 32:4 [Hebrew Bibles: v. 3])
In last week’s Torah portion, Jacob left his unjust father-in-law, Laban, while he was off shearing his sheep. Fearing that Laban would keep his daughters, Leah and Rachel, Jacob stole away with all he had: his sons, his two wives, and all of his livestock, heading for the mountains of Gilead.
After 22 years in Haran, it was likely difficult for Jacob to free himself from Laban’s wicked manipulation and control, but he did succeed. We can imagine that he was anticipating with great joy his return to his ancestral homeland of Canaan; however, in order to do so, he had to first pass through Edom, the territory of Esau, his estranged brother.
A Jewish man prepares to read from the open
Torah scroll.
Jacob’s Family Becomes a Nation
“Then the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, ‘We came to your brother Esau, and he also is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.’ So Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed.”
(Genesis 32:6–7)
(Genesis 32:6–7)
The time had come for Jacob to confront his past. More than two decades had passed since Jacob had posed as his brother Esau and received the first-born blessing from their father.
The last time Jacob had seen Esau, he was filled with murderous rage, vowing to kill him; therefore, it is no wonder that Jacob felt anxiety at the prospect of seeing Esau again, especially upon learning that his brother was headed his way with 400 men!
Had Esau held a grudge against Jacob all these years? Or had time eased the pain of betrayal and brought forgiveness? Could the generous gifts of livestock sent ahead to Esau somehow appease his anger? Jacob was about to find out.
Jacob was a man of strategy: he divided his family and the people with him, along with his flock, herds and camels, into two camps. That way, if Esau attacked one camp, the other would survive. (Genesis 32:8)
The Torah does not call these two camps Jacob's "family." This is the first time that the Scriptures refer to those who are with Jacob as a nation / people group (ha’am הָעָם).
“Jacob divided the people [ha’am, הָעָם] who were with him into two groups.” (Genesis 32:7)
This is why the Jewish People, even today, are called
the house of Jacob.
the house of Jacob.
Jacob Sees Esau Coming to Meet Him, by James Tissot
Jacob Becomes Israel
That night, after separating everyone and everything into two camps, Jacob stays behind. While alone, he encounters an angel with whom he wrestles until daybreak, insisting, “I will not let you go until you bless me.” (Genesis 32:26)
Jacob refuses to settle for anything less than a full physical and spiritual inheritance, and his tenacity is commendable;
even the angel takes note of it.
even the angel takes note of it.
But the angel's response is puzzling at first. The angel asks Jacob, “‘What is your name?’ He said, ‘Jacob (Yaacov יַעֲקֹב).’” (Genesis 32:27)
Why did the angel ask about Jacob’s name? In Hebrew, his name (Yaacov) can mean the heel of the foot (because he grasped Esau’s heel when coming out of the womb), but it can also carry a connotation of deceiver or supplanted.
The "angel” knew that for Jacob to embark on his divine destiny, he first needed to face the truth about himself. By stating his name, Jacob announced his character.
The angel then changed his name to Israel (Yisrael יִשְׂרָאֵל) because he had struggled (sarah שָׂרָה) with God and with men, and had overcome. (Genesis 32:28)
The name of Israel comes from two Hebrew words: strive (sar שר) and God (El אל). Since the word sar also means prince, there is a connotation of princely power. In this sense, Israel can also mean
Prince with God.
Prince with God.
Jacob Wrestled with an Angel (1897 Bible Pictures and What They
Teach Us by Charles Foster)
A lesson is in this for everyone. To become the overcomers we are called to be and to experience full victory in our lives, there are times when we must be tenacious in our faith and times when we must prevail in prayer.
The Torah identifies Jacob’s mysterious wrestling partner only as an eesh (man); nevertheless, it becomes obvious that he was much more than just a man. Jacob recognized this and, therefore, called the place Peniel (פְּנִיאֵל), which means Face of God, because He had seen God face to face (panim el panim).
The prophet Hosea also saw that Jacob wrestled with God:
“In the womb he took his brother by the heel, and in his manhood he strove with God. He strove with the angel and prevailed.”
(Hosea 12:3–4)
(Hosea 12:3–4)
This intense encounter left Jacob with a permanent limp from a dislocated hip.
“And the sun rose upon him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped upon his thigh.” (Genesis 32:31)
A reader follows along in the Torah scroll using a yad (Torah pointer) in
order to keep his place and not obscure the view of those standing at
his side.
Jacob Makes Peace With Esau
On his way to meet Esau, Jacob prepared for the worst to happen.
Positioning his family behind him, Jacob "went on ahead and bowed down to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.
"But Esau ran to meet Jacob and embraced him; he threw his arms around his neck and kissed him. And they wept." (Genesis 33:3–4)
While there is obvious merit in being prepared for the worst, the Bible teaches us that worrying about the future is pointless, since much of what we waste time worrying about never comes to pass.
It's not that we should deliberately fail to recognize the pitfalls before us and go ahead blindly.
The point is that we can put all of our cares and concerns into God’s hands, trusting Him to take care of us in any and all situations, even those that could cause us to be fearful or distressed.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
(Philippians 4:6)
(Philippians 4:6)
Jacob Reconciled with Esau (Bible Primer, 1919)
Like Jacob, some of us have relationships that have been strained—perhaps family members are angry over some past offense.
We may even have committed a great wrong toward someone close to us. In time and with the Lord’s leading, even these estranged relationships can be healed.
Each of us has been given the ministry of reconciliation and should do whatever we can to bring healing and restoration to our relationships with one another, especially our brothers and sisters in the Body of Messiah.
“Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.” (2 Corinthians 5:18)
Although Esau eventually reconciled with his brother, his descendants — the Edomites — continued to harbor hatred against Jacob’s descendants. It is an ancient hatred, the spirit of which continues to this very day.
A Jewish man stands at the bimah in a Jerusalem synagogue.
But we know that God severely judges such violence.
In the Haftarah (prophetic portion) for this week, in the book of Obadiah, God warns that because of their violence against the children of Jacob (Israel), there will be no survivors of the house of Esau, and they will be cut off forever.
“Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame shall cover you, and you shall be cut off forever . . . and there shall be no survivor for the house of Esau, for the LORD has spoken.” (Obadiah 1:10, 18)
