Exposing the Yaakovs

Toras Avigdor | June 27, 2025

Part III. Exposing the Yaakovs

Exposing the Good Ones

Now, I have a lot to say about exposing the wicked in this world – it’s an important subject by the way and I hope one day to spend an entire lecture on that – but I wanted to talk to you tonight about the other side of the coin. Because it’s not only that the darkness of this world causes the Eisavs to look important but even more so we don’t see the Yaakovs for who they really are.

Now, this might seem unimportant to us. After all, we’re not Yitzchok Avinu. You’re not choosing between them, to give them the brachos, to be the progenitor of the Am Yisroel. And so doctors, professors, talmidei chachomim, politicians, inventors, they’re just ships passing by in the night. It doesn’t matter.
