47. רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר אָמַר, כָּל מִי שֶׁמִּשְׁתַּדֵּל בַּתּוֹרָה, אֵין מִיתָתוֹ עַל יְדֵי יֵצֶר הָרָע, מִשּׁוּם [שֶׁהוּא נָחָשׁ, וְהוּא מַלְאַךְ הַמָּוֶת, אֶלָּא מִיתָתָם בִּנְשִׁיקָה, שֶׁכָּתוּב (שיר א) יִשָּׁקֵנִי מִנְּשִׁיקוֹת פִּיהוּ. כְּלוֹמַר עַל פִּי ה’. וְהִיא הַנְּשִׁיקָה שֶׁהִיא דְבֵקוּת שֶׁל הַנֶּפֶשׁ בְּעִקָּר, וְאוֹתוֹ שֶׁמִּשְׁתַּדֵּל בַּתּוֹרָה] שֶׁהִתְחַזֵּק בְּעֵץ הַחַיִּים וְלֹא הִרְפָּה מִמֶּנּוּ, וְלָכֵן צַדִּיקִים שֶׁמִּשְׁתַּדְּלִים בַּתּוֹרָה לֹא נִטְמָא גוּפָם [אֶלָּא הוּא טָהוֹר, כְּמוֹ אֵלִיָּהוּ בְּבֵית הַקְּבָרוֹת שֶׁמָּצְאוּ אוֹתוֹ רַבָּנָן וְשָׁאֲלוּ אוֹתוֹ, וְלֹא כֹהֵן הוּא מַר? אָמַר לָהֶם, צַדִּיקִים לֹא טְמֵאִים בְּמִיתָתָם, כְּמוֹ שֶׁשָּׁנִינוּ, בַּיּוֹם שֶׁמֵּת רַבִּי בָּטְלָה כְּהֻנָּה. כְּלוֹמַר שֶׁהִתְעַסְּקוּ בוֹ] שֶׁלֹּא שָׁרְתָה עֲלֵיהֶם רוּחַ טֻמְאָה.
\n48. יַעֲקֹב הָיָה עֵץ הַחַיִּים, לָמָּה פָּחַד, שֶׁהֲרֵי לֹא יָכוֹל לִשְׁלֹט עָלָיו? וְעוֹד, שֶׁהֲרֵי כָּתוּב וְהִנֵּה אָנֹכִי עִמָּךְ וְגוֹ’, לָמָּה הָיָה פּוֹחֵד? וְעוֹד, שֶׁהֲרֵי כָּתוּב וַיִּפְגְּעוּ בוֹ מַלְאֲכֵי אֱלֹהִים, אִם מַחֲנוֹת קְדוֹשִׁים הָיוּ עִמּוֹ, לָמָּה הָיָה פּוֹחֵד?.<\/div>\n

\nZohar Vayishach<\/strong>
\n#47
\nRabbi Elazar says that those who study the Torah to reveal light do not die by the evil inclination that is the angel of death<\/a>. They are protected because they holds fast to the Tree of Life<\/a>. The study of Torah even cleanse the corporeal body and Tzadikim keep a pure body even after their soul leaves the body.
\nThe Tzadik removes all selfish desires from himself and his body is sustained by pure light that is opposite to the negative side that is based on desires for the self that draws the aspect of death. Those desires give stronger connection to the evil side that destroys us in this world and take from our merits in the world to come.
\n#48
\nJacob was pure and connected to the Torah. As a righteous man and as a chariot<\/a> for the central column he shouldn’t have fear from the other-side<\/a> that couldn’t control him.
\nWe read in Genesis 28:15<\/a> that before he is to meet with Esau, God promised him protection;
\n“ וְהִנֵּה אָנֹכִי עִמָּךְ, וּשְׁמַרְתִּיךָ בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר-תֵּלֵךְ, וַהֲשִׁבֹתִיךָ, אֶל-הָאֲדָמָה הַזֹּאת: כִּי, לֹא אֶעֱזָבְךָ, עַד אֲשֶׁר אִם-עָשִׂיתִי, אֵת אֲשֶׁר-דִּבַּרְתִּי לָךְ”
\n“Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
\nIt also said (Genesis 32:2<\/a>) “and the angels of God met him”
\nWhy did Jacob had fear?
