Our Parsha begins with Ya'akov fleeing Beer Sheva to escape Esav's anger and rage.
On his way to Charan, he rested overnight on the future home of the Beis Hamikdash, Mt. Moriah.
He dreamt of a ladder reaching the heavens with angels ascending and descending it that night.
We learn how God showed Ya'akov and all of his future descendants, us that he will always be with us!

Our Parsha begins with the passing of Sarah at 127 years old. Avraham negotiated with Ephron to buy a plot of land in Chevron, known as Mearas HaMachpelah, for 400 shekels. This cave would be a family burial plot for the next generations.
When Avraham finished mourning for Sarah, he sent his most trusted servant, Eliezer, to find a wife for his son Yitzchak.

We learn the secret behind the job of each angel and the lesson of unity during these tragic times.
