Then follows Yaacov, whose skin is as smooth as silk. Esav and Yaacov are quite different.

1 ב"ה TLC Nishmas NEWSLETTER 10 th November 2017 ת ול ד ת - Toldos "MAKE EACH DAY YOUR MASTERPIECE" Dear Parents and Grandparents Hope you all had a lovely week! In this week's parsha, Toldos... we told the children that Yitzchok marries Rivka and after a long time she becomes pregnant with twins! 2 babies! Esav (ey-sav) and Yaacov. Esav is born first. He is hairy and red headed. Then follows Yaacov, whose skin is as smooth as silk. Esav and Yaacov are quite different. Esav is naughty and mean and does not work hard, while Yaacov is a good boy, who is kind and likes to learn the Torah. As Esav was born first he should get a special brochoh from his father but he doesn't deserve it! Yaacov does. One day Yaacov is making red lentil soup. Esav comes home hot and hungry and asks for some soup. Yaacov agrees as long as Esav lets him have the frist born's brochoh from their father. Esav agrees. Yitzchok would be sad if he knew that Esav didn't want to have the special brochoh. A plan is hatched by Rivka, the mummy, to make sure Yaacov receives his father's brochoh. Rivka covers Yaakov's arms and neck with goat skins to Yitzchok will think Yaacov's is his hairy son Esav. Yitzchok is blind so he cannot see his children. He hears Yaacov's sweet voice, but touches his hands which feel hairy. Yitzchok thinks it is Esav and gives the special brochoh to Yaacov instead. Monday: WOW! Yet another birthday celebration to start off our week! HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY TO OUR LITTLE AARON! Wishing you a lifetime full of health, happiness and laughter little man! Love from all your little friends and teachers at TLC X Page 1 of 6
