The eighth reading from the book of Genesis is
named Vayishlach (וישלח), which means “and he sent.” The title
comes from the first verse of the reading, which says, “Then Jacob sent
messengers before him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of
Edom” (Genesis 32:3 [verse 4 in Jewish-published Bibles]). Jacob prepares to
meet Esau as he returns to the Promised Land, but first he has a mysterious
encounter with an angel in the darkness, which changes his name to Israel. The
portion follows Jacob’s adventures in the land of Canaan, including the loss of
his beloved wife, Rachel.
