Deliver Me From My Brother and the Gift Counted Out for Esau

"Deliver me, I pray" (Genesis 32:12) - deliver me, I pray, from the hand of my brother, who comes against me with the strength of Esau. "Lest he come and strike me, mother together with children" - yet You Yourself said, "You shall not take the mother together with the young" (Deuteronomy 22:6). Another interpretation: And You Yourself said, "I will surely do good with you" (Genesis 32:13) - "do good" in your own merit, "do good" in the merit of your fathers. "Two hundred she-goats" (Genesis 32:14-16). From here is derived the conjugal duty stated in the Torah: two hundred she-goats require twenty he-goats; two hundred ewes require twenty rams; thirty nursing camels with their young, and thirty more in calf; forty cows require ten bulls; twenty she-donkeys require ten he-donkeys.
