PARSHAS TOLDOS


Thought of 2 questions last night:

Q.#1 Why is Yaakov, the greatest of the Ovos, and one who lived a life of kedusha every second, called Yaakov (“he who holds the heel”) just because he held onto Esav’s heel when he was coming out of his mother’s womb?

Q.#2 Why was it necessary for Yitzchok to make a peace treaty with Avimelech, if Avrohom made one with him already for himself and their FOR THEIR CHILDREN?
