Vayishlach: Don’t be too Confident - Rabbi Ari Zahtz

rashi tells us that yaakov sent to malacham he sent messengers to aesop to see what's going on when isa was coming with all these men's but rashid coming specifically actual angels where rashi got that from what are you saying need to be understood but there's a very interesting side point that emerges from this rashi is that yaakov avinu is on a level where he is able to control to a certain extent and be able to send angels of god on his behalf and yet in the end asap is coming by roma yaakov yakub is scared daca was nervous how can it be something on the level of yakovino's even is even scared [Music] and if casual levenstein explains that what you see from this is that a person can never be overly confident in himself and even if that person is accomplished so much and even if a person could be a yaakov vino and think wow look at all the amazing things that i've done still have to realize we don't know the full calculation of hashem we don't know what we have done right and what we have done wrong and we can't be overly confident and that's the balance that yakuba avino lives with the aquavino understood that on the one hand i i feel close to akarij i have the ability to control them all often but still by iran yaakov yakubu understands that that doesn't mean that everything is as smooth sailing necessarily for me bursting cannot be booked hey cannot be confident in himself until the day of his death until then we keep working whatever strides you're making to keep working more and more and get closer and closer to our kurdish borough
