Vayishlach (5781): Start Slowly and You Will Gain Clarity
from Something Spiritual · host Rabbi Yehuda Stern
Reuven and Shimon were two sons of Yaakov. Each of their names represents a unique approach to Jewish observance and to many other areas of life. Reuven is associated to seeing and Shimon is to hearing. What does each one represent spiritually? Once we understand this, we will understand why the source for a Bar Mitzvah comes from Shimon, rather than from his older brother Reuven.
