Midrash su Genesi 27:43

(Gen. 28:10:) AND JACOB SET OUT. This text is related (to Prov. 12:15): THE WAY OF A FOOL IS RIGHT IN HIS OWN EYES. This refers to Esau the Wicked, according to what is written above (in Gen. 28:8f): NOW ESAU SAW THAT THE DAUGHTERS OF CANAAN WERE EVIL…. SO ESAU SET OUT UNTO ISHMAEL < AND TOOK FOR A WIFE MAHALATH THE DAUGHTER OF ISHMAEL >…. He heaped trouble upon trouble. (Prov. 12:15, cont.:) BUT A WISE MAN LISTENS TO ADVICE. This refers to Jacob.¹Gen. R. 67:12. Thus it is stated (in Gen. 27:42): NOW IT WAS REPORTED TO REBEKAH ABOUT THE WORDS OF HER ELDER SON ESAU (i.e., about his scheming). < SO, HAVING SENT AND CALLED FOR YOUNGER SON JACOB, SHE SAID UNTO HIM: LOOK AT YOUR BROTHER ESAU. HE IS TAKING COMFORT >…. When was he taking comfort? When he would have killed you (Jacob), as stated (ibid., cont.): HE IS TAKING COMFORT < IN SCHEMING > AGAINST YOU TO KILL YOU. (Gen. 27:43:) SO NOW, MY SON, HEED MY VOICE. What is the meaning of SO NOW, MY SON? She said to him: Yesterday you heeded me and received the blessings; now heed me in order to remain alive. He said to her: But is that the proper way? For me to set out without Daddy's knowledge? If he also tells me, I will do so. Immediately (we read in Gen. 28:1f.): SO ISAAC CALLED JACOB AND BLESSED HIM…. ARISE AND GO TO PADDAN-ARAM…. As soon as he heard that, he said to him: Give me an exiterion {i.e., travel instructions}.²The Greek word means “departing blessing.” He said to him (in vs. 3): MAY GOD ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU. Immediately (we read in vs. 7): SO JACOB HEEDED HIS FATHER AND HIS MOTHER AND WENT TO PADDAN-ARAM…. (Gen. 28:10:) AND JACOB SET OUT. Ergo (in Prov. 12:15, cont.): BUT A WISE MAN LISTENS TO ADVICE.
