Descrição da Aula

In the portion of Toldot, the Zohar delivers a rarefied view of the true meaning of the struggle between Esau and Jacob. Eitan shares the Rav 's insights into the relationship of this ancient story to the struggle inherent in each of us between our evil and good inclinations and the value each has for the other. Discovering the real blessing in bargaining with our evil inclination rather than restricting it gives us a powerful tool to manifest lasting fulfillment.
