Description

We know that Avraham Avinu had 10 tests, including the akeida of Yitzhak Avinu. What was Yaakov Avinu's test? Rav Yoseph Salant explains in his Be'er Yoseph that this is the reason for the placement of Eisav's marriage in the middle of a story about Yaakov. Delivered to a select group of talmidim at Yeshivat Har Etzion.
