Parashat Toldot

I am very excited to say we have reached Parashat Toldot!  I really hope to finish before the end of the year and be able to have one more celebration.
Next week we will begin Perek 25:19-28.  Yaakov and Esav are born.  They are described very differently as babies and they become very different adults.
1. What is the connection between how they were as babies and how they were as adults?
2. Why did Rivka love Yaakov and Yitzchak love Esav?
3. Does that mean Rivka did not love Esav and Yitzchak did not love Yaakov?
Kol tuv,
Rabbi Rapoport
