Isn’t it bizarre that a lot of the Jewish people’s leaders grew up in homes that had horrible influences all around them?  Rivka grew up as the sister of one of history’s worst con artists Lavan.  Yitzchok’s brother was the adulterous and idolatrous Yishmael.  Yaakov’s brother was the serial murderer Eisav.  Yosef spent most of his life alone in Egypt and eventually married an Egyptian woman.  Moshe grew up as the adopted son of Pharoah and married a local priest’s daughter.  Why is this?  Shouldn’t Hashem want the future leaders of the Jewish people to have upbringings within the Jewish community, unexposed to any negative influences?  The answer might surprise you.
