Vayishlach, Kislev 19 - Vol. 1

The connection between the simple meaning of “I dwelt with Lavan” and the Midrash: “I have kept the 613 Mitzvot”. From Yaakov’s perspective Esau was ready for redemption. Lesson in one’s service and the connection with Kislev 19. In the Midrash it states: “And the donkey that is king Moshiach” the connection of Moshiach to the idea “poor and riding on a donkey”. The donkey of Avraham, Moshe and Moshiach. The sorting of the materialistic. The interpretation of the Alter Rebbe in the verse: “and he said to him where are you” which he said to the officer while he was incarcerated and the lesson from this. Kislev is the third month, the time for the revelation of the inner part of Torah and the month of Sivan, the time of Matan Torah. https://www.torahrecordings.com/likutei-sichos/001/008
