Description

Parshas Toldos: When Nations Stir


This week’s Parsha brings us into the very beginning of a struggle that started before Yaakov and Esav were even born. Rivkah feels something inside her that no one can explain, leading her to cry out in fear, a moment that opens one of the most meaningful revelations in the Torah.


From this inner turmoil comes a story that shapes the destiny of our people: twins drawn to opposite worlds, blessings that determine the future, and a mother who sees the truth long before anyone else. With the Radak’s clarity and the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s deeper insight, we explore how Rivkah’s fear became the first sign of a divine plan already unfolding.


It’s a Parsha about confusion that becomes clarity, struggle that reveals purpose, and the quiet beginning of a destiny still alive within us.


🛡️ In honor of Eretz Yisroel — may G-d protect our brave soldiers and comfort all who grieve.


🕯️ Dedicated in memory of Rabbi Gabi and Rivki Holtzberg, Hy”d, and in loving memory of Leah Mintche Bas Yaakov Yosef, Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia.


🎧 Listen now and step into the story where nations awaken and purpose takes shape.
