[Music] Good morning. In we read about how is anticipating the arrival of his brother is and he's quite afraid. He's fearful. The Torah uses two words to describe his fear and his angst for's arrival and the rabbis tell us says he was nervous that maybe he would be killed. So certainly there was fear for Jacob that he would be killed or any of his me family members would be but he was also nervous that he would kill others. He would kill other people. And so we seek's sensitivity to not wanting to harm others even when they were coming to attack him. But I heard a nice explanation about how Rashi says there's a there's a in the in the Mishnah that's called is known as he eventually gets called by that name. And the rabbis tell us that was a descendant of meaning that Yakov was nervous that he would kill and by doing so end a possible line of looked well into the future to make sure that he wasn't doing anything wrong even for future generations that he was nervous to make sure that everything that he did would be uh would be proper according to Hashem's will. Have a great day.
