Midrash Vayisau (original) (raw)
Midrash Vayisau (Hebrew: מדרש ויסעו) is one of the smaller midrashim. This small midrash, "the heroic legend of the sons of Jacob," is based on Genesis 35:5 and 36:6, and recounts the story of the wars of Jacob and his sons against the kings of the Amorites and against Esau and his army. The beginning of its discussion of the Amorite war is as follows: "Our teachers said that although they did not pursue after them this time, yet seven years later all the kings of the Amorites gathered themselves together against the sons of Jacob."

| dbo:abstract | Le midrash Vayisau (ou va-yissa'u), en hébreu מִדְרַשׁ וַיִסָּעוּ, est un petit midrash médiéval sur les guerres légendaires du patriarche biblique Jacob et de ses fils contre les Ninivites, les rois amorrites et Esaü et ses fils. Dans son commentaire sur le livre de la Genèse, Nahmanide y fait référence sous le nom de « livre des guerres des fils de Jacob ». Il a été réutilisé dans le midrash Sefer haYashar. Le texte médiéval est en partie la traduction en hébreu d'un texte grec ou latin, lui-même basé sur un ouvrage juif de la période du Second Temple en hébreu ou en araméen. Cet ouvrage plus ancien a aussi servi de sources à certains passages du livre des Jubilés et du Testament de Juda. (fr) Midrash Vayisau (Hebrew: מדרש ויסעו) is one of the smaller midrashim. This small midrash, "the heroic legend of the sons of Jacob," is based on Genesis 35:5 and 36:6, and recounts the story of the wars of Jacob and his sons against the kings of the Amorites and against Esau and his army. The beginning of its discussion of the Amorite war is as follows: "Our teachers said that although they did not pursue after them this time, yet seven years later all the kings of the Amorites gathered themselves together against the sons of Jacob." That the legends contained in Vayisau are very old may be inferred from the Book of Jubilees and from the Testament of Judah; the midrash betrays its relationship to these old pseudepigraphical writings in many details. The war against the Amorites is treated at greater length in the Sefer ha-Yashar, pericope "Beshallach." The midrash itself is contained in Yalkut Shimoni, and is mentioned by Naḥmanides as "Sefer Milchamot Benei Ya'akov". cite the opinion of G. Schmitt that the work was composed not later than the Bar Kokhba war. The text has been edited according to the Yalkut Shimoni by A. Jellinek, by , and by Charles. (en) |
