the record button okay so this week's uh parsha is is uh parshas by isla is yakov on his journey back to arizona and in that journey back there to searle there is so much for us to learn um for our lives i'm trying to think which portion i should be focusing on if we should go a little bit more kabbalistic or a little bit more aldera each one of them uh gives us a different explanation um maybe we'll we'll go a little bit more kabbalistic uh today it's early in the week we have some more time to uh to digest the the thoughts and the concepts um so i want to focus on one thing and that is on the way back yaakov uh he starts bringing his family over the river and then famously he forgets the pakhim kitanim the small jugs as we're getting closer to chanukah the mekubalim and the khasirisha's farm connect the two together he goes back and over there he has the battle with the tsar of asap as it says in the positive was left all alone and there is a man who uh wrestled with him modern hebrew took the word from this uh pasik itavakut means to wrestle but we have to know what the word is until until the the dawn the break of dawn and he sees this man that he can't overcome yaakov rather your name will be israel because you have uh overcome spiritually and physically you've been able to overcome therefore your name is israel now our name is israel as the people who are called ami israel the people of israel the nation of israel so we have to understand what does the name israel mean why does he get it at this exact moment
