עלי קללתך בני אין לי ולך לירא מן הקללה שהרי בטוחה אני כמה שאמר הקב״ה ורב יעבד צעיר. ד״א אפי׳ ימושך לא יקללך כי מעצמו יבין שלא עשית זאת מדעתך כי אם מדעתי שאני רגילה לעמוד לפניו והשאתי ערמה זאת אותך, ואם בא לקלל יקללני. ד״א עלי קללתך בני דוגמא על עמך ברכתך, שהרי למה יקללך ואתה מביא לו מטעמים אבל עלי לקללך שאתה מסרב מצותי. אך שמע בקלי ולך קח לי. עלי קללתך בני, “neither you nor I need worry as I am certain that what G-d has told me before the two of you have been born will come true. So I can safely say that I will absorb any curse you might be cursed with.”A different exegesis: Rivkah meant that even if Yitzchok would subject Yaakov to a “touchtest” in order to assure himself that he was Esau, he would never curse him, as he would realise that you would never have tried to deceive him if I had not put you up to this charade. If he would curse anyone, he would curse me.”A third possible exegesis of this line: the curse would backfire on me; why would he curse someone who had brought him such tasty food? Our author uses the line על עמך ברכתך, “Your blessing be upon Your people” in Psalms 3,9 as a comparison. [The curse in that context would befall the people mentioned in the previous verse. Ed.] You would only become cursed if you refused to carry out what I command you. Listen to me and go and get me the goats.”
