Torah (1)

Join Shmuel for portion Toldot! This portion details the epic battle between brothers Esau and Jacob. Why shouldn’t Isaac choose his strong son Esau to succeed him? Jacob and Rebeccah certainly fooled Isaac with the “hands of Esau” but remained true to their nature with the “voice of Jacob”.  All this and more in today’s episode.
