(4) Jacob sent messengers ahead to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom, (5) and instructed them as follows, “Thus shall you say, ‘To my lord Esau, thus says your servant Jacob:*Thus shall you say, ‘To my lord Esau, thus says your servant Jacob…’ Or “Thus you shall say to my lord Esau, ‘Thus says your servant Jacob…’” I stayed with Laban and remained until now; (6) I have acquired cattle, asses, sheep, and male and female slaves; and I send this message to my lord in the hope of gaining your favor.’” (7) The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau; he himself is coming to meet you, and his retinue*retinue Trad. “men,” yet women may be in view. See 33.15; cf. 24.59; contrast Judg. 9.49 with Exod. 32.28. See further the Dictionary under ’ish. numbers four hundred.” (8) Jacob was greatly frightened; in his anxiety, he divided the people with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two camps, (9) thinking, “If Esau comes to the one camp and attacks it, the other camp may yet escape.” (10) Then Jacob said, “O God of my father Abraham’s [house] and God of my father Isaac’s [house], O יהוה, who said to me, ‘Return to your native land and I will deal bountifully with you’! (11) I am unworthy of all the kindness that You have so steadfastly shown Your servant: with my staff alone I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two camps. (12) Deliver me, I pray, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; else, I fear, he may come and strike me down, mothers and children alike. (13) Yet You have said, ‘I will deal bountifully with you and make your offspring as the sands of the sea, which are too numerous to count.’” (14) After spending the night there, he selected from what was at hand these presents for his brother Esau: (15) 200 she-goats and 20 he-goats; 200 ewes and 20 rams; (16) 30 milch camels with their colts; 40 cows and 10 bulls; 20 she-asses and 10 he-asses. (17) These he put in the charge of his servants, drove by drove, and he told his servants, “Go on ahead, and keep a distance between droves.” (18) He instructed the one in front as follows, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks you, ‘Who’s your master? Where are you going? And whose [animals] are these ahead of you?’ (19) you shall answer, ‘Your servant Jacob’s; they are a gift sent to my lord Esau; and [Jacob] himself is right behind us.’” (20) He gave similar instructions to the second one, and the third, and all the others who followed the droves, namely, “Thus and so shall you say to Esau when you reach him. (21) And you shall add, ‘And your servant Jacob himself is right behind us.’” For he reasoned, “If I propitiate him with presents in advance, and then face him, perhaps he will show me favor.” (22) And so the gift went on ahead, while he remained in camp that night. (23) That same night he arose, and taking his two wives, his two maidservants, and his eleven sons,*sons NJPS “children”; Heb. yeladim. Given the specified number, the reference cannot include Jacob’s daughter(s). English idiom warrants the greater gender specificity. he crossed the ford of the Jabbok. (24) After taking them across the stream, he sent across all his possessions. (25) Jacob was left alone. And a figure*figure Or “[divine] agent.” The expectation of divine intervention (see 28.15; 32.10–13) via a nearby agent (see 32.2–3) evokes this extended sense. Cf. 18.2; see further the Dictionary under ’ish; Agent. wrestled with him until the break of dawn. (26) When he saw that he had not prevailed against him, he wrenched Jacob’s hip at its socket, so that the socket of his hip was strained as he wrestled with him. (27) Then he said, “Let me go, for dawn is breaking.” But he answered, “I will not let you go, unless you bless me.” (28) Said the other, “What is your name?” He replied, “Jacob.” (29) Said he, “Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven*striven Heb. saritha, connected with first part of “Israel.” with beings divine and human,*beings divine and human Or “God (Elohim, connected with second part of ‘Israel’) and human beings.” and have prevailed.” (30) Jacob asked, “Pray tell me your name.” But he said, “You must not ask my name!” And he took leave of him there. (31) So Jacob named the place Peniel,*Peniel Understood as “face of God.” meaning, “I have seen a divine being face to face, yet my life has been preserved.” (32) The sun rose upon him as he passed Penuel, limping on his hip. (33) That is why the children of Israel to this day do not eat the thigh muscle that is on the socket of the hip, since Jacob’s hip socket was wrenched at the thigh muscle. (1) Looking up, Jacob saw Esau coming, with a retinue*retinue See note at 32.7. of four hundred. He divided the children*children Heb. yeladim, referring here only to Jacob’s sons (see 32.23) in anticipation of their becoming the progenitors of Israel’s tribes; and so through v. 14. among Leah, Rachel, and the two maids, (2) putting the maids and their children first, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph last. (3) He himself went on ahead and bowed low to the ground seven times until he was near his brother. (4) Esau ran to greet him. He embraced him and, falling on his neck, he kissed him; and they wept. (5) Looking about, he saw the women and the children. “Who,” he asked, “are these with you?” He answered, “The children with whom God has favored your servant.” (6) Then the maids, with their children, came forward and bowed low; (7) next Leah, with her children, came forward and bowed low; and last, Joseph and Rachel came forward and bowed low. (8) And he asked, “What do you mean by all this company which I have met?” He answered, “To gain my lord’s favor.” (9) Esau said, “I have enough, my brother; let what you have remain yours.” (10) But Jacob said, “No, I pray you; if you would do me this favor, accept from me this gift; for to see your face is like seeing the face of God, and you have received me favorably. (11) Please accept my present which has been brought to you, for God has favored me and I have plenty.” And when he urged him, he accepted. (12) And [Esau] said, “Let us start on our journey, and I will proceed at your pace.” (13) But he said to him, “My lord knows that the children are frail and that the flocks and herds, which are nursing, are a care to me; if they are driven hard a single day, all the flocks will die. (14) Let my lord go on ahead of his servant, while I travel slowly, at the pace of the cattle before me and at the pace of the children, until I come to my lord in Seir.” (15) Then Esau said, “Let me assign to you some of the people who are with me.” But he said, “Oh no, my lord is too kind to me!” (16) So Esau started back that day on his way to Seir. (17) But Jacob journeyed on to Succoth, and built a house for himself and made stalls for his cattle; that is why the place was called Succoth.*Succoth Meaning “stalls,” “huts,” “booths.” (18) Jacob arrived safe in the city of Shechem which is in the land of Canaan—having come thus from Paddan-aram—and he encamped before the city. (19) The parcel of land where he pitched his tent he purchased from the kin of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred kesitahs.*kesitahs Heb. qesiṭah, a unit of unknown value. (20) He set up an altar there, and called it El-elohe-yisrael.*El-elohe-yisrael “El, God of Israel.” (1) Now Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the daughters of the land. (2) Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, chief of the country, saw her, and took her and lay with her and disgraced her.*and disgraced her Heb. wa-y‘anneha, lit. “and violated her.” NJPS “by force,” but whether Dinah consented is not stated, and is not at issue; regardless, by the norms of the ancient Near East, she was disgraced. OJPS “and humbled her.” (3) Being strongly drawn to Dinah daughter of Jacob, and in love with the maiden, he spoke to the maiden tenderly. (4) So Shechem said to his father Hamor, “Get me this girl as a wife.” (5) Jacob heard that he had defiled his daughter Dinah; but since his sons were in the field with his cattle, Jacob kept silent until they came home. (6) Then Shechem’s father Hamor came out to Jacob to speak to him. (7) Meanwhile Jacob’s sons, having heard the news, came in from the field. The men*The men More precisely, “the [salient] participants [in the situation],” namely Jacob’s sons. See the Dictionary under ’ish. were distressed and very angry, because he had committed an outrage in Israel by lying with Jacob’s daughter—a thing not to be done. (8) And Hamor spoke with them, saying, “My son Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him in marriage. (9) Intermarry with us: give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves: (10) You will dwell among us, and the land will be open before you; settle, move about, and acquire holdings in it.” (11) Then Shechem said to her father and brothers, “Do me this favor, and I will pay whatever you tell me. (12) Ask of me a bride-price ever so high, as well as gifts, and I will pay what you tell me; only give me the maiden for a wife.” (13) Jacob’s sons answered Shechem and his father Hamor—speaking with guile because he had defiled their sister Dinah— (14) and said to them, “We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised, for that is a disgrace among us. (15) Only on this condition will we agree with you; that you will become like us in that every male among you is circumcised. (16) Then we will give our daughters to you and take your daughters to ourselves; and we will dwell among you and become as one kindred. (17) But if you will not listen to us and become circumcised, we will take our daughter and go.” (18) Their words pleased Hamor and Hamor’s son Shechem. (19) And the youth lost no time in doing the thing, for he wanted Jacob’s daughter. Now he was the most respected in his father’s house. (20) So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the public place*public place Lit. “gate.” of their town and spoke to their town council,*their town council Heb. ’anshe ‘iram; NJPS “their fellow townsmen,” trad. “the men of their city.” Cf. Ruth 3.11; 4.1–2. See the Dictionary under ’ish. saying, (21) “These people*people (So NJPS.) Lit. “participants whose involvement defines the depicted situation.” See the Dictionary under ’ish. are our friends; let them settle in the land and move about in it, for the land is large enough for them; we will take their daughters to ourselves as wives and give our daughters to them. (22) But only on this condition will their representatives*their representatives NJPS “the men.” Cf. note on v. 21. agree with us to dwell among us and be as one kindred: that all our males become circumcised as they are circumcised. (23) Their cattle and substance and all their beasts will be ours, if we only agree to their terms, so that they will settle among us.” (24) All his fellow townsmen*All his fellow townsmen So the NJPS footnote; the reading in NJPS itself is more literal (“all who went out of the gate of his town”), yet here, women are not in view. heeded Hamor and his son Shechem, and all males, all his fellow townsmen,*all his fellow townsmen See the previous note. were circumcised. (25) On the third day, when they were in pain, Simeon and Levi, two of Jacob’s sons, brothers of Dinah, took each his sword, came upon the city unmolested, and slew all the males. (26) They put Hamor and his son Shechem to the sword, took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away. (27) The other sons of Jacob came upon the slain and plundered the town, because their sister had been defiled. (28) They seized their flocks and herds and asses, all that was inside the town and outside; (29) all their wealth, all their children, and their wives, all that was in the houses, they took as captives and booty. (30) Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me, making me odious among the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites; my fighters*fighters Heb. metim (in construct form); cf. Deut. 2.34; 3.6; Isa. 3.25. NJPS “men.” are few in number, so that if they unite against me and attack me, I and my house will be destroyed.” (31) But they answered, “Should our sister be treated like a whore?” (1) God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and remain there; and build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you were fleeing from your brother Esau.” (2) So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, “Rid yourselves of the alien gods in your midst, purify yourselves, and change your clothes. (3) Come, let us go up to Bethel, and I will build an altar there to the God who answered me when I was in distress and who has been with me wherever I have gone.” (4) They gave to Jacob all the alien gods that they had, and the rings that were in their ears, and Jacob buried them under the terebinth that was near Shechem. (5) As they set out, a terror from God fell on the cities round about, so that they did not pursue the sons of Jacob. (6) Thus Jacob came to Luz—that is, Bethel—in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him. (7) There he built an altar and named the site El-bethel,*El-bethel “The God of Bethel.” for it was there that God had been revealed to him when he was fleeing from his brother. (8) Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and was buried under the oak below Bethel; so it was named Allon-bacuth.*Allon-bacuth Understood as “the oak of the weeping.” (9) God appeared again to Jacob on his arrival from Paddan-aram. God blessed him, (10) saying to him,
“You whose name is Jacob,
You shall be called Jacob no more,
But Israel shall be your name.” Thus he was named Israel. (11) And God said to him,
“I am El Shaddai.*El Shaddai Cf. 17.1.
Be fertile and increase;
A nation, yea an assembly of nations,
Shall descend from you.
Kings shall issue from your loins.
(12) The land that I assigned to Abraham and Isaac
I assign to you;
And to your offspring to come
Will I assign the land.” (13) God parted from him at the spot where [God] had spoken to him; (14) and Jacob set up a pillar at the site where [God] had spoken to him, a pillar of stone, and he offered a libation on it and poured oil upon it. (15) Jacob gave the site, where God had spoken to him, the name of Bethel. (16) They set out from Bethel; but when they were still some distance short of Ephrath, Rachel was in childbirth, and she had hard labor. (17) When her labor was at its hardest, the midwife said to her, “Have no fear, for it is another boy for you.” (18) But as she breathed her last—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni;*Ben-oni Understood as “son of my suffering (or, strength).” but his father called him Benjamin.*Benjamin I.e., “son of the right hand,” or “son of the south.” (19) Thus Rachel died. She was buried on the road to Ephrath—now Bethlehem. (20) Over her grave Jacob set up a pillar; it is the pillar at Rachel’s grave to this day. (21) Israel journeyed on, and pitched his tent beyond Migdal-eder. (22) While Israel stayed in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father’s concubine; and Israel found out. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve in number. (23) The sons of Leah: Reuben—Jacob’s first-born—Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. (24) The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. (25) The sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maid: Dan and Naphtali. (26) And the sons of Zilpah, Leah’s maid: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram. (27) And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, at Kiriath-arba—now Hebron—where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned. (28) Isaac was a hundred and eighty years old (29) when he breathed his last and died. He*He Lit. “Isaac.” was gathered to his kin*kin (So NJPS.) See the Dictionary under “predecessors.” in ripe old age; and he was buried by his sons Esau and Jacob. (1) This is the line of Esau—that is, Edom. (2) Esau took his wives from among the Canaanite women—Adah daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah daughter of Anah daughter of Zibeon the Hivite*Hivite Cf. v. 20, “Horite.” — (3) and also Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth. (4) Adah bore to Esau Eliphaz; Basemath bore Reuel; (5) and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. Those were the sons of Esau, who were born to him in the land of Canaan. (6) Esau took his wives, his sons and daughters, and all the members of his household, his cattle and all his livestock, and all the property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to another land because of his brother Jacob. (7) For their possessions were too many for them to dwell together, and the land where they sojourned could not support them because of their livestock. (8) So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir—Esau being Edom. (9) This, then, is the line of Esau, the ancestor of the Edomites, in the hill country of Seir. (10) These are the names of Esau’s sons: Eliphaz, the son of Esau’s wife Adah; Reuel, the son of Esau’s wife Basemath. (11) The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. (12) Timna was a concubine of Esau’s son Eliphaz; she bore Amalek to Eliphaz. Those were the descendants of Esau’s wife Adah. (13) And these were the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. Those were the descendants of Esau’s wife Basemath. (14) And these were the sons of Esau’s wife Oholibamah, daughter of Anah daughter of Zibeon: she bore to Esau Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. (15) These are the clans of the sons of Esau. The descendants of Esau’s first-born Eliphaz: the clans Teman, Omar, Zepho, Kenaz, (16) Korah, Gatam, and Amalek; these are the clans of Eliphaz in the land of Edom. Those are the descendants of Adah. (17) And these are the descendants of Esau’s son Reuel: the clans Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah; these are the clans of Reuel in the land of Edom. Those are the descendants of Esau’s wife Basemath. (18) And these are the descendants of Esau’s wife Oholibamah: the clans Jeush, Jalam, and Korah; these are the clans of Esau’s wife Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah. (19) Those were the sons of Esau—that is, Edom—and those are their clans. (20) These were the sons of Seir the Horite, who were settled in the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, (21) Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. Those are the clans of the Horites, the descendants of Seir, in the land of Edom. (22) The sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan’s sister was Timna. (23) The sons of Shobal were these: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam. (24) The sons of Zibeon were these: Aiah*Aiah Heb. “and Aiah.” and Anah—that was the Anah who discovered the hot springs*hot springs Meaning of Heb. yemim uncertain. in the wilderness while pasturing the asses of his father Zibeon. (25) The children of Anah were these: Dishon and Anah’s daughter Oholibamah. (26) The sons of Dishon*Dishon Heb. Dishan; but cf. vv. 21, 25, 28, and 30, and 1 Chron. 1.41. were these: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran. (27) The sons of Ezer were these: Bilhan, Zaavan, and Akan. (28) And the sons of Dishan were these: Uz and Aran. (29) These are the clans of the Horites: the clans Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, (30) Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. Those are the clans of the Horites, clan by clan, in the land of Seir. (31) These are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the Israelites. (32) Bela son of Beor reigned in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah. (33) When Bela died, Jobab son of Zerah, from Bozrah, succeeded him as king. (34) When Jobab died, Husham of the land of the Temanites succeeded him as king. (35) When Husham died, Hadad son of Bedad, who defeated the Midianites in the country of Moab, succeeded him as king; the name of his city was Avith. (36) When Hadad died, Samlah of Masrekah succeeded him as king. (37) When Samlah died, Saul*Saul Or “Shaul.” of Rehoboth-on-the-river succeeded him as king. (38) When Saul died, Baal-hanan son of Achbor succeeded him as king. (39) And when Baal-hanan son of Achbor died, Hadar succeeded him as king; the name of his city was Pau, and his wife’s name was Mehetabel daughter of Matred daughter of Me-zahab. (40) These are the names of the clans of Esau, each with its families and locality, name by name: the clans Timna, Alvah, Jetheth, (41) Oholibamah, Elah, Pinon, (42) Kenaz, Teman, Mibzar, (43) Magdiel, and Iram. Those are the clans of Edom—that is, of Esau, father of the Edomites—by their settlements in the land which they hold.
“You whose name is Jacob,

(א) ר' שמעון פתח וכו': ר"ש פתח ואמר, כמראה הקשת אשר יהיה וגו' מקרא זה למדנו. אבל בוא וראה, כי כתוב, ולא קם נביא עוד בישראל כמשה. ושואל מה בין משה לשאר נביאי העולם. ומשיב, משה הסתכל בספקלריאה המאירה. שהיא ז"א, שאר הנביאים, לא היו מסתכלים אלא באספקלריאה שאינה מאירה, שהיא הנוקבא. משה היה שומע הנבואה, ועומד על רגליו, וכחו מתגבר, והיה יודע דבר על בוריו, כמ"ש ומראה ולא בחידות. שאר הנביאים היו נופלים על פניהם בשעת הנבואה, ונחלש כחם, ולא היו יכולים לעמוד על בירורו של הדבר. מי גרם להם זה, משום שכתוב, כי נגע בכף ירך יעקב והוא צולע על ירכו. פירוש כי הנבואה היא מנו"ה דז"א שה"ס ב' ירכין, וכיון שנפגם הירך, ע"כ אין נבואתם צלולה כראוי. (ועי' לעיל ב"א דף קל"ג אות קמ"ה ובהמשך).
(א) וכל אינון נביאין וכו': וכל אלו הנביאים לא יכלו לעמוד על מה שעתיד הקב"ה לעשות לעשו, חוץ מעובדיה הנביא, שהיה גר שבא מצד עשו, הוא עמד על בוריו בענין עשו, ולא נחלש כחו, כמ"ש בספר עובדיה.
(א) וע"ד כל שאר וכו': ועל זה, כל שאר הנביאים נחלש כחם ולא יכלו לעמוד ולקבל דבר על בוריו כראוי. מה הטעם, משום כי נגע בכף ירך יעקב בגיד הנשה, שלקח ושאב כל הכח של הירך, ועל כן נשבר כחו של הירך, ונשאר צולע על ירכו, כי כל נביאי העולם לא יכלו להשיג ולעמוד בו. בוא וראה, כל הנביאים חוץ ממשה לא עמדו בכחם כראוי.
(א) ומאן דלעי וכו': ומי שלומד בתורה, ואין מי שיתמוך בו, ולא נמצא מי שיטיל כסף לסחורה לתוך כיסו, לחזקו, על זה נשתכחה התורה בכל דור ודור, ונחלש כחה של התורה בכל יום ויום, כי אין להם לעוסקים בתורה על מה שיסמכו. שז"ס והוא צולע על ירכו, שאינם נותנים תמיכה וחיזוק לת"ח שיוכלו לעסוק בתורה. וע"כ והמלכות הרשעה מתגברת בכל יום ויום. בוא וראה כמה גרם החטא הזה, ומשום שאין מי שיסמוך את התורה שהיא ז"א, כראוי, נעשו הסומכים דז"א חלשים, דהיינו נו"ה דז"א המכונים סמכין, וגורמים שיתגבר אותו שאין לו שוקים ורגלים לעמוד עליהם. שהוא הנחש הקדמוני.
(א) פתח ואמר וכו': פתח ואמר, ויאמר ה' אלקים וגו' על גחונך תלך. ושואל מהו על גחונך תלך. ומשיב, כי נשברו הסומכים שלו ונקצצו רגליו, ואין לו על מה שיעמוד. כך ישראל אם אינם רוצים לסמוך את התורה, דהיינו לפרנס ת"ח העוסקים בתורה כנ"ל, הם נותנים לנחש סומכים ושוקים לעמוד ולהתחזק בהם. כי מחסרונות שבקדושה נבנה הס"א.
(א) ת"ח כמה עקימו וכו': בוא וראה כמה מרמה וערמה התחכם באותו הלילה, אותו רוכב על הנחש, שהוא סמאל, כנגד יעקב. כי הוא היה יודע, שכתוב, הקול קול יעקב והידים ידי עשו, שפירושו, שאם נפסק קולו של יעקב, דהיינו קול התורה, אז ניתן כח אל הידים ידי עשו, משום זה הסתכל לכל הצדדים להרע ליעקב ולהפסיק קול תורתו.
(א) וחמא ליה תקיף וכו': וראה אותו חזק בכל הבחינות, ראה הזרועות, מצד זה ומצד זה, דהיינו חסד וגבורה הנקראים אברהם ויצחק שהם חזקים. ראה הגוף, שה"ס יעקב המיחד ב' הזרועות, שמתחזק ביניהם. וראה כח התורה שלו ושהוא חזק מכל הבחינות, אז וירא כי לא יכול לו. מה עשה, מיד, ויגע בכף ירכו, דהיינו בתומכי התורה, שנתחכם כנגדו, אמר, כיון שנשברו תומכי התורה, מיד לא תוכל התורה להתחזק עוד, ואז יתקיים מה שאמר אביהם, הקול קול יעקב והידים ידי עשו כמ"ש לעיל, וכן, והיה כאשר תריד ופרקת עלו מעל צוארך.
(יב) וַיִּשְׁלַח יַעֲקֹב מַלְאָכִים. רִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן פָּתַח וְאָמַר, (משלי י״ב:ט׳) טוֹב נִקְלָה וְעֶבֶד לוֹ מִמִּתְכַּבֵּד וַחֲסַר לֶחֶם, הַאי קְרָא עַל יֵצֶר
(12) "And Jacob sent messengers." Rabbi Shimon began the discussion with the verse, "Better is one lightly esteemed who owns a servant, than one who pranks himself but lacks bread" (Prov. 12:9). This verse refers to the Evil Inclination,
(א) הָרָע אִתְּמָר, בְּגִין דְּאִיהוּ מְקַטְרְגָא תָּדִיר לְגַבֵּי בְּנֵי נָשָׁא, וְיֵצֶר הָרָע אִיהוּ אָרִים לִבֵּיהּ וּרְעוּתֵיהּ דְּבַר נָשׁ בְּגַאֲוָתָא וְאָזִיל אֲבַתְרֵיהּ מְסַלְסֵל שַׂעֲרֵיהּ וּבְרֵישֵׁיהּ עַד דְּאִיהוּ אִתְגָּאֵי עֲלֵיהּ וּמָשִׁיךְ לֵיהּ לַגֵּיהִנֹּם.
(ב) אֲבָל טוֹב נִקְלָה, הַהוּא דְּלָא אָזִיל אֲבַתְרֵיהּ דְּיֵצֶר הָרָע וְלָא אִתְגָּאֵי כְּלָל וּמָאִיךְ רוּחֵיהּ וְלִבֵּיהּ וּרְעוּתֵיהּ לְגַבֵּי קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא, וּכְדֵין הַהוּא יֵצֶר הָרָע מִתְהַפֵּךְ לְעֶבֶד לוֹ, דְּלָא יָכִיל לְשַׁלְטָאָה עֲלוֹי, וְהַהוּא בַּר נָשׁ שַׁלִּיט עֲלוֹי כְּמָה דְאַתְּ אָמֵר, (בראשית ד׳:ז׳) וְאַתָּה תִּמְשָׁל בּוֹ.
(ג) מִמִּתְכַּבֵּד, כְּמָה דְאֲמָרָן דְּאִיהוּ אוֹקִיר גַּרְמֵיהּ מְסַלְסֵל בְּשַׂעֲרֵיהּ אִתְגָּאֵי בְּרוּחֵיהּ, וְאִיהוּ חֲסַר לֶחֶם, חֲסַר מְהֵימְנוּתָא כְּמָה דְאַתְּ אָמֵר, (ויקרא כ״א:י״ז) לֶחֶם אֱלֹהָיו וְגו' (ויקרא כ״א:ו׳) לֶחֶם אֱלֹהֵיהֶם הֵם מַקְרִיבִים וְגו'.
(1) who constantly accuses man. The Evil Inclination causes man to become haughty and proud, encouraging man to curl his hair until the Evil Inclination towers over him and drags him to Gehenom.
(2) "Better is one lightly esteemed" means one who does not follow the Evil Inclination, and does not act haughtily but humbles his spirit, heart, and will before the Holy One, blessed be He. Then the Evil Inclination becomes his servant, as it cannot control him. On the contrary, the person controls it, as it is written, "Yet you may rule over him" (Beresheet 4:7).
(3) "than one who pranks himself" is as we said, that he puts on airs, curls his hair, and acts haughtily, "but lacks bread." This means a lack of faith, as it is written, "to offer the bread of his Elohim" (Vayikra 21:17), and "the bread of their Elohim they do offer" (Ibid. 6). Bread is the Shechinah in both verses. Faith is the Shechinah, so lacking bread means lacking faith.
