Torah Reading: Genesis 25:19-28:9
This Torah Portion tells the story of the conflict between Jacob and Esau all the way since their birth (Genesis 25:19-34). It also speaks of Isaac passing off his wife, Rebekah, as his sister, taking after his father Abraham (Genesis 26). Then there’s the story of Jacob and Rebekah deceiving Isaac into blessing Jacob (Genesis 27). The parashah concludes with Jacob being told to flee to Paddan-aram to avoid Esau’s wrath (Genesis 28:1-9).
