"Come together that I may tell you what is to befall you in days to come". He (Jacob) meant to reveal the End of Days to them. He used the term "Come together" because the End of Days cannot take place so long as gratuitous hatred between you remains, and you must gather into one union…which is why it is written that "Before his death your father left this instruction". This raises a question. Where do we find this instruction? RASH"I, of blessed memory, may have written what he wrote, but what they intended was to tell him that this was our father's intention, in saying "Come together that I may tell you" that there should be no slander between us and that we should all be united as one and by everlasting love.
