Parshas VaYetzei al pi Meshech Chochma. Is Yaakov on his way to חרן or to ארץ בני קדם? Does Hashem identify Himself to the Avos as קל ש-די or as the Holy Name of הויה? Why does Hashem identify Himself to Yaakov of the father of Abraham rather than as the father of Yitzchok? Why does Yaakov establish a מצבה rather than a Mizbe'ach? What Halachik principle can be derived from the fact that Yaakov joins his family for חודש ימים? Why does Mother Leah break out in a song of thanksgiving after the birth of Yehuda, her fourth son? Why is the pregnancy of Zilpa (she gave birth to Gad & Asher) omitted from the Torah? These and other q's will be addresses in a most original way by HaRav Meir Simcha of Dvinsk.
