doesn't this ..."l'nochach ishto"<br /><br />doesn't this construction mean that Yitzchak at that very hour was eizer k'negdo to Rivka? that in itself was a pioneering manoeuver*/**, that would mean that his prayer, if accepted, included hers; in other words Yitzchak prayed for a child for his wife, and that Rivka's own prayer for a child would be accepted (thus he a helper to her, and his prayer a helper to hers);<br />when Hashem accepted Yitzchak's entreaty, the resulting dual acceptance yielded dizygotic twins: one pioneering sperm was received by a normal, helpmate egg (producing Yaakov), while a second, trailer sperm was trapped by a second, pioneering egg, the egg of a "tzadik ben rasha" (producing Eisav)... <br /><br />how else to explain it??<br /><br /><br />*see Divrei Chaim, Oct. 25, 2012<br />**Yitzchak's first and last?Alonzo Nakatomihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13218406401602847328noreply@blogger.com
