This fact only sharpens our question: Why did Yaakov spend 14 years learning in the Yeshiva of Shem and Ever if he had so much to do in his lifetime and he was already aged?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Wait?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Those 14 years delayed him significantly. Do the math: Yaakov left Be\u2019er Sheva at age 63, he learned in Yeshiva for 14 years \u2192 77, then worked for Lavan for 7 years<strong> \u2192 <\/strong>84. Had he skipped those 14 years, he could have married at 70. So why the \u201cdelay\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chida quotes his grandfather, who brings a Medrash: When Elifaz, Esav\u2019s son, was sent to kill Yaakov, he found Yaakov and was about to kill him. Yaakov said: \u201cTake all my possessions. A poor man is like dead.\u201d Elifaz did exactly that. He kept Yaakov alive and took all his possessions, including the clothes on his back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Robbed!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/jewish-resources\/parshat-vayeitzei-bitachon-trust-in-the-midst-of-uncertainty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Left with nothing<\/a>, Yaakov hid in a river for modesty until a traveler came for a swim in that same river and drowned. Yaakov took the man\u2019s clothing, but fearing being accused of murder, he sought safety in Yeshivat Shem Va\u2019ever, staying hidden there for 14 years until the danger passed and the incident faded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s the deeper purpose of those 14 years? When Yitzchak was giving the blessings in last week&#8217;s parsha, he could not see well so he instead felt around to determine who was standing in front of him. While feeling Yaakov, Yitzchak commented:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">&#8220;\u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b4\u05bc\u05d2\u05b7\u05bc\u05e9\u05c1 \u05d9\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05e7\u05b9\u05d1 \u05d0\u05b6\u05dc \u05d9\u05b4\u05e6\u05b0\u05d7\u05b8\u05e7 \u05d0\u05b8\u05d1\u05b4\u05d9\u05d5 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b0\u05de\u05bb\u05e9\u05b5\u05bc\u05c1\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b9\u05bc\u05d0\u05de\u05b6\u05e8 \u05d4\u05b7\u05e7\u05b9\u05bc\u05dc \u05e7\u05d5\u05b9\u05dc \u05d9\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05e7\u05b9\u05d1 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b7\u05d9\u05b8\u05bc\u05d3\u05b7\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd \u05d9\u05b0\u05d3\u05b5\u05d9 \u05e2\u05b5\u05e9\u05b8\u05c2\u05d5&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yaakov approached his father Yitzchak, and he felt him and said, &#8220;The voice is the voice of Yaakov, but the hands are the hands of Eisav.&#8221;<\/p>\n<cite><a href=\"https:\/\/library.alhatorah.org\/?r1=Bereshit_27:22&amp;s1=1&amp;l1=he,en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bereshit 27:22<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jewish Strength<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This Pasuk is a lesson for us and teaches that our strength comes not from weapons or force. Our strength is the protection we get when we learn Torah, pray, and do mitzvot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chofetz Chaim highlights that the word \u201c\u05d4\u05b7\u05e7\u05b9\u05bc\u05dc&#8221;, hakol is spelled without a vav (&#8216;\u05d5) which can translate to cold or weakened. It&#8217;s only when \u201c\u05e7\u05d5\u05b9\u05dc \u05d9\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05e7\u05b9\u05d1\u201d (with a vav) is strong, meaning, there is a lot of Torah learning, prayers and mitzvot, do the hands of Eisav weaken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/jewish-resources\/parshat-vayeitzei-whats-going-to-be\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yaakov was running for his life from Eisav<\/a>. To survive, he needed maximal spiritual firepower. That meant that those 14 years in Yeshivat Shem V&#8217;ever were not a detour, they were life-saving ammunition. This explains why Rashi says Yaakov \u201cnever lay down to sleep\u201d during those 14 years. He was pouring every ounce of strength into Torah, tefillah, and avodah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Important Takeaway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In today\u2019s world, we face our own versions of Eisav and Lavan. We&#8217;re faced with spiritual confusion, cultural temptations and nonstop pressure from every direction to do wrong. And just like in Yaakov\u2019s time, we must shield ourselves. Our shield and our strength come from the same unshakable pillars: <strong>Torah<\/strong>, <strong>Tefillah<\/strong>, <strong>Mitzvot.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spiritual preparation is not a detour. It\u2019s the mission itself. Just like it was for Yaakov.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button tm-cta\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/sign-up.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Want to learn more about our spiritual superpower?
