פרשת תולדות
Gn. 25:19-28:9 | Ml. 1:1-2:7
Rivkah's prayers are heard and she finally conceives after 20 years. Her pregnancy is tumultuous and God explains to her that two nations are in her womb. Esau, the firstborn, is a hunter and Yitzchak's favorite; Yaakov, Rebeca's favorite, is a man who stays in tents in search of knowledge. In a plot created by his mother, Esau sells his birthright to Yaakov, who receives all of his father's blessings. Yaakov flees to Charan to find a wife for himself in his mother's family, while Esau marries a girl from the house of Ishmael.

Quién no se compadeció alguna vez del anciano Itzjak al que su esposa engaña vilmente en complicidad con su hijo Iaakov, para lograr la bendición del primogénito? Más de una vez dijimos que Itzjak tuvo una vida sin sobresaltos ni grandes compromisos. Y para colmo, lo “engañan” de una manera que lo hace “equivocarse” y confundir a sus hijos.
