About this episode
In this episode, Rabbi Shlomo Farhi explores a powerful idea from Parashat Vayishlach: why Yaakov sent angels —and not people—to Esav, and what that teaches us about conflict, grudges, and the hidden dynamics in our relationships. We dive into how mitzvot themselves create “angels,” why clarity can prevent unnecessary battles, how unresolved expectations fuel conflict, and what it means to grow beyond our comfort level. With stories from Poland, deep Torah insights, and real-life applications, this class reframes how we approach tension, negotiation, and personal growth.
