Parashat Vayetzei ויצא
A few thoughts and questions from this Torah portion that are applicable today:
JACOB’S DREAM
Today we see a rise of prophetic dreams and the appearance of the Gate of Heaven in Israel plus Adonai’s promises of Aliyah are being fulfilled.
LABAN’S TREACHERY
Will there be treachery as hamas releases Israeli hostages?
THE BIRTH OF JACOB’S SONS
Now we just need to be born again!
THE PROSPERITY OF JACOB
Even in the midst of war the Israeli stock market is up and the economy is thriving!
THE SECRET FLIGHT OF JACOB AND FAMILY FROM LABAN
Jacob was accused of treachery by Laban; so the pattern continues. Will we really stop all surveillance of Gaza six hours a day during the ceasefire?
THE COVENANT AT MIZPEH
Will a “peace treaty” be made?
ESAU
The story moves from problems on the northern border to the southern border…
One more thing – Vayetzei ויצא is my birth Parashah and the time of our return flight home!
