Steve Kirschenbaum The first words of the Parsha He saw the Yad Hashem in everything. are ‘Vayishlach Yaakov He says this also explains why we find many times in the malachim.’ The Medrash performing miracles which seem to be without a special purpose. Rav records two interpretations, Chanina ben Dosa in Taanis 25a says that the G-d that says that oil can either malachim mamash or burn can also say vinegar should burn; miraculously, he ultimately caused sheluchim -- either Yaakov vinegar to burn. Why did he need such a miracle? Because in Rav Chanina sent angels literally, or he sent ben Dosa’s world and in Rav ’s world, whether oil or messengers. For some reason, vinegar burns is the same miracle since it’s always the Yad Hashem in control. Rashi only quotes the pshat We find many times there were miracles despite the fact that Hashem doesn’t that it was malachim mamash. do miracles for no purpose. Yet, in the Beis Hamikdash, the Aron didn’t take Rav Moshe in the Darash Moshe up space. Why was it important to have that miracle? We find that Rav asks why would Yaakov send made the Yam split and he crossed the Yam. Kriyas Yam angels and perform a neis -- we is an extraordinary miracle, why would he do it just to cross. The Talmidim have a rule that miracles are couldn’t come with him they had to cross on the bridge. Why? When you not done without a purpose. are on the level of Rav Chanina ben Dosa or Rav Pinchas ben Yair, this is Moreover, Yaakov Avinu himself life, everywhere you see Yad Hashem so things happen in a different way. was afraid when he returned So, in Yaakov Avinu’s existence, the fact that malachim are available to from Lavan that all the miracles him is not something that is extraordinary since everything is Yad Hashem. that happened to him expended his zechusim. When someone does a miracle, it affects his zechusim. If that is the case, why would he send malachim mamash, what was the purpose of sending these angels? Says Rav Moshe, to a Baal Madreiga, to someone on an elevated level, there is no difference if something happens miraculously or within the bounds of nature. G-d can do nissim. Rav Yisroel Reisman quoted Rav Hutner saying that Hashem can perform miracles, and for ordinary people that is something incredible. However for great people, it is not such a chiddush when something happens miraculously or ‘naturally.’ When you are on that level, the concept of Neis is something else. Everything is the hand of G-d. With this he explains other occurrences. For example, Chizkiyahu Hamelech did not say Shirah after the great miracle of the overnight death of the camp of Sancheriv. Why didn’t he say Shirah? Says Rav Moshe, because for Chizkiyahu there was no difference if it happened miraculously overnight or in battle.
