In the final portion of Genesis, Jacob blesses his grandchildren Ephraim and Menashe and instructs future Jewish parents to bless their children in the same way. Surprisingly, Jacob doesn’t ask them to be like the patriarchs, but instead offers a blessing that reflects strength and encouragement. Despite being born in Egypt, not Israel, Jacob suggests that even those far from the holy land can embody the virtues of Ephraim and Menashe. The blessing calls for resilience and staying connected to Jewish heritage, emphasizing the importance of faith and roots despite external circumstances.
