The Torah relates two instances in which Yaakov's name is changed to Yisrael. The first is after the struggle between Yaakov and Esav's angel (according to the Midrash that "the man" is Esav's guardian angel). "He said to him, 'what is your name?' and he said, 'Yaakov.' And he said, 'No longer shall you be called Yaakov, but Yisrael, for you have contended with Elokim and with men and have prevailed.'" (32:28-29).
The second time it is Hashem who changes Yaakov's name. "Elokim said to him, 'Your name is Yaakov; your name shall no longer be Yaakov, but Yisrael shall be your name, and He named him Yisrael." (35:10).

Parshas Vayishlach

Sfas Emes, Zechuso Tagein Aleinu, Vayishlach, 5631/37/38

This ma'amar begins with a surprise. Almost always, the Sfas Emes starts his ma'amar with a comment on the parsha's first Medrash Rabba. This week, however, he goes well into parsha before he starts his discourse. Thus he begins with the Medrash Rabba's comment on the posuk (Bereishis, 33:18): "Vayavo Ya'akov shaleim ... va' yichan es penei ha'ir." (ArtScroll: "Ya'akov arrived intact" -- [i.e., whole] -- "at the city of Shechem ... and he encamped before the city.")

Parshas Vayishlach

The Roots of Strength

Yiddishe nachas - two words so full of Jewish meaning that they defy translation into any other language. Yiddishe nachas is that special blend of pride, joy and satisfaction that Jewish parents feel when they look at their successful children and remember all the effort that went into them. It is a sigh and a smile grafted together.

Shalom Mispochah! (Family)

Sometimes you just can't plan how the day will go. Last Friday, our young son-in-law was admitted to the hospital with what the Dr.'s called "a 7 centimeter mass" in his stomach.
