According to kabbalistic teachings, Yaakov corrected the spiritual damage caused by Adam's sin.
Therefore, just like Adam had been misled by the ingenious plot of the serpent, the correction of Adam's sin had to come through ingenious trickery - "Your brother came ingeniously and took your blessing" [Toldot 27:35]
Based on Likutei Sichos Lubavitcher Rebbe
"There are certain Jews", the Dubno Maggid once said, "who are the very personification of the words: "The voice is Yaakov's voice" as the way they pray and study conforms perfectly with all the pertinent halachos.
"Unfortunately," continued the Maggid, "their hands are Eisav's hands. For when it comes to the mitzvos of tzedakah or gemilus chasadim, these same Jews keep their hands tightly shut.
"It is vital for such individuals to know that one aspect of avodas Hashem without the other will not last."
