As has been the case since its launch a few weeks ago, the Parshah Almanac for Parshas Toldos explores an array of weird and fascinating ideas from the Parshah. This week’s “Oddities and Observations” asks whether we can learn the perfect way to tell half-truths from Yaakov Avinu.
“Commentary Kaleidoscope” features over 20 different interpretations of what it means that Yaakov and Eisov clashed before they were even born. The “Etymology/Entomology Corner” investigates the meaning of the name of one of Yitzhak’s wells. And the “Parshah Poll” features real reader responses to the question “what trait is more concerning in a newborn – hairiness or foot-grabbing?”
You can download this week’s “Parshah Almanac” for free here. The two-page PDF can be printed double-sided on a single sheet of paper.
