“The Coming of the Messiah, as is known, belongs to the previous Torah portion, Vayishlach, when it will be the authentic (truthful) connection (friendship) between Jacob and Esau, the twins… the sweetening, the coming of the Messiah is the connection between them… then, he (Esau) was not prepared. He tells the rabbi that now he is already yes, ready. So all the problem now is us, why are we not connecting with him, why are we not initiating the Fourth Revolution to bring closer our brother Esau to redeem him?

We have to redeem Messiah King David, and there are some additional souls that we should redeem as well through a Pidyon HaBen. We should redeem them in peace. Who is ‘Peace?’ It is ‘Esau’ in Gematria (376)…”
-Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh, recorded lesson on 19 Kislev, 5778

This piece of cake is called by the Chassidim a “Lekach”, which in Gematria is equivalent with ‘2 million’ (לקח = 2 מליון = 138).
When the rabbi handed me the cookie, I said to the rabbi: “Is this instead of the 2 million!”
The rabbi replied: “I try to be patient, but, you must hurry”.
I asked: “Hurry up for what?”
He replied: “Hurry up to get the $2 million donation”.
I answered him: “But, I brought you a donor and you rejected him”!
He replied… (and then, the video recording silenced the sound): “He (the donor) was not a successful one …
