[Avodah] RSRH's Comments on Bereshis 33:4-7

[Micha Berger]

On Fri, Dec 12, 2008 at 11:54am EST, R Yitzchok Levine quoted RSRH:
: The word "vayevkoo" ("and they wept") attests that Esav was overcome by
: genuine human emotion....

Which reopens the question of when one takes the liberty of giving a
peshat contrary to Chazal. Does RSRH have a contrary source in Chazal to
the medrash that turns Esav's act into an attempt to steal -- which even
as a mashal, can't indicate authenticity on his part.

:-)BBii!
