Vayislach Yaakov is on his way back to his father’s home when he is told big brother Esav is on his way with no less than 400 gentleman. Yaakov sets the standard for what to do in times of distress from other nations: Gifts, (on this occasion, sending sets of animals), Prayer and Preparation for War. He divides the family in different groups and prays to Hashem to save him from his brother Esav. Anyway, Esav arrives and gives his brother a hug and kiss! Some say that it was just a temporary moment of mercy. Esav suggests that they travel together. Yaakov politely says, “No” and they part ways. Yaakov arrives back in the Holy land, Dinah ventures out and is taken by Shechem; her brothers Shimon and Levi are furious and dealt a harsh blow to the entire town. Rivka dies in the week’s Sidra, as does her nurse, Deborah. The sidra ends with listing the vast family of Esav and all its branch heads. This is done in brief, to show that the main focus is of course Yaakov, whose lifestory continues to be related next week onwards!
