Hello Everyone,
Last week we discussed the Halachot of the גיד השנה. Today we will discuss the story of Yakov Avinu wrestling with an angel. The medieval commentators examined the issue of how a spiritual being (an angel) is not only seen by human senses but can actually wrestle and physically harm a hman being.
The Gemarah in masechet Chullin examines what lesson is taught to us by the story of the wrestling angel.
