The Possuk: Bereishis (32:1) וַיָּלֶן מִּנְחָּה לְעֵׂשָּו אָּחִּיו “he took from what came into his hand a gift for his brother Eisov”; symbolising that the ‘Minchah’ gift that Yaakov sent to Eisov was about elevating feminine waters from below to above up to the spiritual world of ‘Tohu’ (to Eisov as he is at source), which is why in this ‘Minchah’ [Yaakov] also included non-Kosher animals (unlike the Korbonos of Tikkun which could only be brought from Kosher animals). This is why it is called a ‘Minchah’ being that it is superior as is the virtue of the ‘Minchah’ prayer over the Shacharis prayer and the Maariv prayer, and similarly the virtue of the Ketores over the Korbonos.
Tohu: As is explained in Kabbalah and Chassidus, that at the beginning of creation, a spiritual world was created as part of the process to creating our world and was called ‘Tohu’. ‘Tohu’ was designed to fail as it had many great lights, but only very few vessels. This caused a breakup of the vessels. And the fall of the lost sparks of G-dliness and of holiness into zones which are outside the parameters of holiness. Unlike all the other worlds, in which the lights do settle into the vessels are called the worlds of ‘Tikkun’ – rectification, where the illumination and revelation is correct and operates in an orderly fashion and any departure of light from the vessels is contrary to the Divine intention, and as such is only a sacrifice of the soul and not a sacrifice of the body. Therefore ‘Tohu’ symbolises unlimited lights that do not conform to limitation or size and therefore do not pervade any vessels. But our world comes from the world of rectification, and includes the ability to elevate those lost sparks from the world of Tohu. In the source of things, the source of Tohu is higher than the source of Tikkun, therefore the source of Eisov is spiritually higher than the source of the Yaakov, which comes from the world of Tikkun.
Eisov at source: As is explained in Kabballah and in Chassidus that Eisov’s roots are from the spiritual world of ‘Tohu’ and Yaakov’s roots are from the world of ‘Tikkun’.
Kosher animals: As mentioned earlier regarding the virtue of Ketores over Korbonos.
Ketores over Korbonos: Which can even refine the Sholosh Kelipos Hateme’os. This is something which is not achievable through Korbonos.
