[Avodah] Ki Seitzei and Yaakov

[nachmanl at juno.com]

You're definitely on to something. R. Yitzchak Etshalom has developed this idea extensively here:

"Ki Seitzi/The first Jewish Family

http://www.torah.org/advanced/mikra/5757/dv/dt.57.5.06.html


He also cites Esnan Zonah (HaKeZonah: Dinah). Kedesha (Tamar), Amalek=Eisav, Snuah (Leah), bechor, yefei/Yefat Toar, Yibum (Tamar), Yaakov's Neder, etc.

And I would add: "Em al Banim" by Yaakov's prayer and Shiluach HaKan (noted in Bereishis Rabah 72:6, where Yaakov cites the Mitzvah in Parshas Ki Seitzei).

By all means, you should send him what you've found. It seems every year Motzoei Shabbos Ki Seitzi I have to Email new things we find in the Parshah
