In this week’s Torah portion, Esav and his henchmen try to kill Yaakov. This struggle is symbolic of the many nations that have tried to wipe out the Jewish people. They are long gone- but we remain stronger than ever!<\/p>\n

First Pharaoh tried to destroy the Jews.<\/p>\n

Why did Pharaoh like to light fires?<\/p>\n
