She asked, “What was the point of my praying?!” Hashem answered her, “There are two nations in your womb.” The Gemara teaches this refers to R’ Yehuda HaNasi and Antoninus - the great sage and the Roman Caesar - who respected each other greatly and studied together. Though you will give birth to the wicked Eisav, from him shall come “kosher” descendants, like Antoninus and the other converts of the future.” Though we may not immediately see the results of our tefilos, and the answers may not be the ones we were expecting, prayer is a powerful tool for good that bears fruits. “And the children struggled together within her.” (25:22) QUESTION: Rashi says that when Rivkah passed the yeshivah of Shem and Eiver, Yaakov wanted to jump out of her womb, and when she passed a place of idol worship, Eisav wanted to jump out. We find a similar situation later when Eisav comes to meet Yaakov with 400 generals (to wage war against Yaakov.) When they made peace, Eisav “offered” to have some of his men accompany Yaakov on the rest of his journey. Therefore, he was willing to give up the opportunity of an angel teaching him Torah in order to go to a yeshivah where he would have good “chavairim” (other little Yaakovs) and not be in the company of Eisav. A) that it is proper, no matter your position or greatness, to admit to not knowing something, and B) Rashi, according to all scholars (and smart laymen) was smarter than all of us. Lest a scoffer point out this peculiarity and try to deny the Torah, Rashi points out that even he didn’t understand it but continued to accept what is written and taught from it. When Kislev began, HaShem blessed Noach, permitted the eating of meat, forbade the shedding of human blood, then struck a covenant with Noach and showed him the rainbow. That’s the point of no return so we criticize this behavior and use Esav as the paradigm for wickedness – when one doesn’t serve Hashem, and he is happy about it. If we internalize this lesson than the neshoma/soul of Avi Mori/ my father, my master, Chiya Kehos son of/ben Yaakov will be elevated in Shamayim/heaven.
