Description

Why did Yaakov Avinu go to the yeshiva of Shem and Ever? Why wasn't he punished for those years of learning Torah? Why does the pasuk tell us that he left Be'ar Sheva and came to Charan? How does this connect to Kislev and Chanukah? Ideas included from Rav Yaakov Kaminetsky, Rav Moshe Feinstein, Reb Leizer Geldzahler, Rav Chaim Kanievsky and Kotsker Rebbe.
