(Genesis deja, what)

For one of my finals, I need to write a few midrashim about the identity and persona of one of the patriarchs or matriarchs. I chose Rivkah.

In looking for supporting verses and ideas, I wanted to see if there was anything about the death of Rivkah so after looking through the Bible and coming up emptly, I turned to my concordance- Ari. Ari sent me an e-mail of a dvar torah that was written in Hebrew. To make sure that I understood it correctly, I plugged it into google translate. Below are the two segments. Please note the biblical reference.


רש"י מצטט דרשן בשם משה שסבור: "לפי שאמרה רבקה ליעקב [בהאיצה בו לברוח מאימת עשיו] 'וְשָׁלַחְתִּי וּלְקַחְתִּיךָ מִשָּׁם' (בראשית כז, מה), שלחה דבורה אצלו לפדן ארם לצאת משם, ומתה בדרך". בהמשך הסברו חוזר רש"י על ההנחה ששם נודע ליעקב על מות אמו. ומדוע לא כתוב במקרא על מות רבקה? מציע רש"י: "ולפי שהעלימו את יום מותה, שלא יקללו הבריות הכרס שיצא ממנו עשו, אף הכתוב לא פרסמו".


Rashi quotes a preacher named Moses believes, "" by Rebecca said to Jacob [urge him to escape from the fear of Esau], and I sent took thee away "(Genesis deja, what), Deborah sent to him from Padan Aram, and died on the way". "Back further explanation Rashi on the assumption that where Jacob learned that his mother's death. Why not write the Bible and the death of Rebecca? Rashi suggests: "" and suppressed the day she died, people who will curse him out belly done, though the text was not published "."  

Oh my...
