Below is a summary of the topics from the daily lesson as delivered by our teacher Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a — yesterday after the Maariv prayer on Monday night, the eve of the 5th of Kislev, 5786, Parshat Vayetzei:

1. Likutei Halachot on the eve of the 5th explains the whole matter of the brothers and Joseph, not because of the disputes of Ben Pekua, but because Joseph, who was the angel Metatron, said to create the world, while the brothers, like the angels, said not to create.
2. Rashi is greater than Etz Chaim and the Zohars. 313 fasts for each commentary.
3. Elijah the Prophet, why Elijah feared Jezebel, but the truth is it is written "vayar" and not "vayira"; in truth, he did not fear Jezebel, but he wanted to receive a new neshamah (soul). Everyone who comes to the tzaddik receives a new neshamah.
4. The entire Gemara is stories about a tiger snake with seven heads.
5. "And Jacob went out from Be'er Sheva and went to Haran" — the initials are "And Jacob went out a tzaddik, then Esau will raise his voice in weeping, immediately Eliphaz the wicked, who is the son of Esau, came and Jacob gave him all his possessions, only the staff remained." Laban asks why did you bring only diamonds because the diamonds were in the staff.
6. Eliezer said to Abraham, I will go to Haran, they will kill me, and indeed they tried to kill him twice. The first time when Laban came out to him with a knife, then a miracle happened and the camels flew in the air "on the camels on the eye," and the second time they put poison in his plate and Gabriel switched the plates, but they did not know this and did not understand how one eats poison and the other dies.
7. Eliezer saw Esau coming out of Rebecca as hinted "and her pitcher on her shoulder." And he did not understand how it was possible that Abraham sent him to take a wife from whom Esau would come? Then he decided to be "silent" and understood that Esau is only the shell of Jacob. Because "silent" is the gematria of Jacob Esau.
8. And then he gave her the two bracelets that hint at the two Tablets of the Covenant.
