Parsha:
Vayishlach 

Description

One of the highlights of Parashat Vayishlach is Yaakov's nocturnal wrestling match with an unknown assailant ( http://alhatorah.org/Wrestling_With_A... ). Who is the mysterious figure with whom Yaakov struggles until dawn? Why is he confronting Yaakov? What message did the incident convey to Yaakov and what meaning does it have for us today? This Torahcast, brought to you by ALHATORAH.ORG, featuring Neima Novetsky, explores these questions and more.
