so merrill tell us about your life
all right and we will move on
selling beer what did we just do
dance like crazy what's all over your
face
being proud of your heritage is amazing
but it's simply not enough what does the
parsha
talk about in large measure the famous
twins
yaakov jacob and esau or however that's
pronounced
e-s-a-u the sons
of i just missed my turn that's okay
we'll keep driving
you know what i really don't know where
i'm going anymore the famous twins sons
of
rebecca rivka and isaac yitzhak who is
the son of avraham
in fact the torah portion opens saying
that these are the descendants
of isaac isaac the son of abraham
avraham is the father
of isaac i didn't exactly translate but
that's what it tells us
what's up with this yitzhak is the son
of avrahama brahm is the father of you
it's like
yeah we get it okay we understand
well of course it's tyra so there's
gonna be more than one explanation as to
the seeming redundancy
but here's one that the medrush has to
offer just as
yitzhak took pride in that he was the
son of abraham
avram took pride in being the father of
yitzchak
you see having great parents is awesome
trust me i know but we can't be
satisfied with being the son or daughter
of special people just because the
generation above you
was something else just doesn't
cut it you feel inspired by how they
lived
that's great but now you gotta live
being proud of your heritage
parrot heritage heritage is amazing
but it's simply not enough your father
or mother's accomplishments
are not your accomplishments and that's
just fine because
you were created to accomplish something
else you might be their dna but you are
not a clone
yes you are a son or daughter of the
jewish people
and you should be proud to be cherish
what your ancestors have given you but
make it yours
make them proud of you and like this
you can be assured that your children
will be proud of their heritage
and make it theirs yes our parents have
given us inspiration
but we must dig within and pull out new
inspiration
a whole new dimension now should start
with you
so do me and you all of us jews
and all of the world a favor don't just
acknowledge that mashiach
is coming that redemption will happen
live it make it yours and when you do
that
you'll be able to assist others
and like this we will all increase in
the joy in our life
in the love in the world
and in torah and mid-choice and service
of god
fulfilling the purpose of creation to
live here in this world
together with god revealed
