Parshas Vayishlach (5766)
by Mordechai Dolinsky
Rashi (33:5) quotes Rashbi that Esav not only demonstrated his love with outward kissing but it was from the depths of his heart. The significance of this is that Yaakov through his intensive concentration on the All-Presence of Hashem was able to cause Esav not only to put down his weapons and cancel his wicked agenda but went even further to actually penetrate Esav’s heart and create a love for Yaakov. The Gr”a esplains that Esther HaMalka used the same tactic to bend Achashverosh to cooperate.
Concentration on the presence of Hashem, R’ Chayim of Voloshzin explains is an actual tool and means that can save us from any danger or threatening situation.
Have a wonderful Shabbos.
