Parasha Vaietzé


"Yaacov left Beersheba and went to Haran" (Bereshit-Genesis 28,10-32,3)

When we want to ascend from one level to another, many obstacles arise that confront us. These obstacles are found mainly in our imagination and illusions, and these arise from anger.

When Yaacov wanted to ascend from the "seventh level" as it is written: from "Beer Sheva" literally translates: (from the seventh well of water) to a higher level, he went out to "Haran", which has the same root in Hebrew as ''Haron'' (Divine Wrath), signifying the obstacles he would face before reaching his goal.

Yet Jacob was resolute in his determination to serve the Creator and so he "arrived at the place" for he knew that he was not experiencing a descent, but rather, quite the opposite.

"Your obstacles" aren't always a bad thing! They can be the door to a great blessing! "The place"

Just don't let those obstacles limit you and deceive you, and you must be very careful with anger, for it is like humidity... "It starts in a small and insignificant corner of the wall, but in time it will be absorbed by the entire wall and then the entire house, until it can be easily torn down with the slightest movement due to its rottenness."

Shabbat Shalom!

(For the elevation of the soul of Albert Abraham ben Ana, and for the complete healing of all the sick in Am Israel and the world)
