Rabbi Minkowicz Torah Lesson Parsha Toldot Where do we have the strength to deal with Galus / exile?

welcome to this week's tour lesson this week's Torah portion is Polish has told us the question of the week is where do we have the strength to deal with the challenges of galut Exile so in this week's total portion of the end of the Torah portion the Torah tells us where his son and he sends them away from his home he sends him to Corona to find a sudok and the term the Torah uses is by islach which is a unique term it's the first time the Torah uses the term of a ishlach in terms of sending someone away as a messenger so the rabbit asks a simple question Yitzhak was at home with Jacob and life was good so what does he do he sends him away to harana which we know is a rough place it's the world and he leaves Israel so Robert asked a simple question why did yaaku agree to leave his father's house to go into harun to the Wrath of the world and why did you send him away he could have arranged should have came to him so the rabbit explains and he says because we know the stories of the Patriarchs not just stories of the past but it sets the tone of life here Yitzhak was establishing light for the Jewish people that if you want to go and you want to accomplish you want to do great things you want to make the world a better place you have to leave your comfort zone you have to leave your parents home you have to leave your comfortable environment and you have to go out to the real world and possibly the Wrath of the world a place where you're not comfortable a place where God is Not revealed and it's very very heavy concealment but specifically out there that's a jakov wins and he married and he has his children he became extremely wealthy so in other words if you want to be successful in life you have to leave your parents home your community your comfort zone and that's where you'll succeed but the question is how will you succeed you're leaving it all you're leaving your strength your power your family and the rabbit explains because so you can send some money or you can leave by islach means that yet he made him an emissary now we know when you make someone an emissary there's different levels you can send someone to do something for you you can send someone to be your representative of certain actions you can make him a total representative or by ishlach where he takes your place he becomes he's your Emissary there and up to the point where the expression is that yaakov was representing was with him so what is means that yaakov when he went it wasn't just that he went Yitzhak was with him every step of the way the same thing also we come down into this world we are shlochen we are emissaries of Hashem in this world so yes sometimes it's tough but Hashem is with us because he answered the question how do we have strength to overcome some of the challenges of galoot Exile we have to know by islach we're all shlokim we're all emissaries of ashram and Hashem is with us and as long as you know and you feel that Hashem is with you you will succeed against any and all obstacles so I want to wish us all a great life a life of of success and our mission as being Hashem Hashem us and we will succeed this week's Torah lesson is dedicated to memory of bark when are you safe and Cena batsara May their souls be elevated by the Torah was studying in their memory thanks so much again for joining us for our weekly tour lesson for more information please see our website Chabad swf.org have a great and blessed week
