In summary, Rabbi Shmuel adds that the word the sages use to describe Jacob’s haste to leave the womb (‫—)מְ פַ ְרכֵּס‬a word that usually describes the convulsions of the soul as it departs the body 3—hints at Jacob’s self-sacrifice in his struggle to not 2F become defiled by the acerbic nature of Esau’s evil and impurity. Third Reading: Authenticity in Serving God “All the wells that his father’s servants had dug in his father Abraham’s lifetime, the Philistines had blocked and filled them with earth.” Digging Wells The zenith of Isaac’s Divine service (Avodat HaShem) was digging wells, which are viewed as a symbol for all “elevation of feminine waters” (‫)הַ עֲ לָאַ ת מַ יִם נֻקְ בִ ּ ין‬, the excitement and awakening from below that accompanies all Divine service. Regarding the aftermath of Adam and Eve’s eating from the Tree of Knowledge, God banishing them from the Garden of Eden, and clothing them in special skin garments, it is said that the Mishnaic sage Rabbi Meir, who was also a scribe, wrote the verse, “skin garments and clothed them” (‫ )כֻּ תּ ֳ נ ֹות א ֹור וַיַּלְ בִ ּ ׁשֵ ם‬as “light garments and clothed them” (‫)כֻּ תּ ֳ נ ֹות א ֹור וַיַּלְ בִ ּ ׁשֵ ם‬. In his commentary on this verse, Rashi, the classic medieval commentator on the Torah quotes the sages: “When she [Rebeccah] would pass by the entrances to Shem and Ever’s places of Torah study, Jacob hastened to be born, but when she passed by a doorway of idol worship, Esau struggled to get out.” Rabbi Shmuel of Shinova (Sieniawa, Poland), author of Ramatayim Tzofim, 1 asks a seemingly simple question on this statement from the sages: “What would bring Rebeccah to pass by places of idol worship in the first place? She was undoubtedly careful to guard the purity of her unborn children and made efforts, while still pregnant, to regularly be present (for their sake) at her husband Yitzchak’s Beit Midrash (house of Torah study.) Further, why was the situation described as a struggle or fight between the boys in trying to determine whether they would ultimately enter a Beit Midrash or a place of idol worship? This inspired Torah teaching was no doubt heard
