Such love, he must have been emulting his forefarthers.
Yup, the one who tried to murder his son based on a dream, and even when he was told to stopp he begged to be alowed to slit his sons throat. When he was stoped from doing that as well, he brutlised a lamb.
Ah, such love.

Ah, So the first time it was a dream and next time he was "told"? And how do you know of the story altogether? And since you are so knowledgeable with the Bible and it's commentators, can you give your opinion on Abraham's whole personality by taking in account all the stories recorded about him?
Ah, such wisdom.
Thank you for putting a smile to my face today.
P.S. Forgive me for wasting my time with your Majesty my genius cynical friend.

Yitzchok's Love for Eisav
Rabbi YY, I really enjoy your shiurim al haparsha on the way to and from work every day. you shiur on Esav was gevaldig. I just found a Pirkie Dreb Eliezer Perek 38 which describes the scene that when Yaakov returned to Yitzchok's house he found Esav there which fits in to the rabbi was saying about Yiztchok relationship with Esav. I will copy the here. Kol Tuv and a Freilichen Chanukah. ולקח יעקב בניו ובני בניו ונשיו והלך לקרית ארבע אצל יצחק אביו ומצא שם את עשו ואת בניו ואת נשיו יושבים באוהל יצחק ותקע לו אהלו חוצה לה וראה יצחק את יעקב ואת נשיו ואת בניו ואת בנותיו ואת כל אשר לו לשנ"י בני"ו

Yitzchaks love for Eisav
From the shiur "Why did Yitzchak Love Eisav" whereas Rashi seems to learn, and the m'sora today teaches children that Yitzchak was fooled. Is it possible that it was a g'zeira min hashamayim that Yitzchak should be fooled and that there is some truth and value to that approach, as opposed to being delusional? For example, I understood from my rebbe the eyes of many of the Tzadikim in europe were closed to the g'zeira of what was imminent prior to WW II.
In the Torah from the R Aaron m'Strashalev Avodas Haleiva Succos: My understanding of us who are far away from Hashem actually being closer to be on condition that we have a yearning His'or'r'rus pining passion to be closer from Hashem. Without that yearning we are not closer to Hashem when we are farther away...?

Why did Yitzchok Love Eisav
This week's shiur was truly beyond anything describable!
I can't reiterate enough the mitzva of allowing many struggles mothers to receive the tools (shovels) to dig into their childrens hearts to discover the pure water flowing deep within...
You make it easy and enjoyable for me and others like me to love our challenging but special boys... Rabbi Jacobson gives added strength to accept Hashem's will!
