וישלח יעקב מלאכים לפניו אל עשו אחיו ארצה שעיר שדה אדום(וישלח לב:ד)

Then Yaakov sent angels ahead of him to Eisav his brother to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.

Mefarshim ask, why did Yaakov send Malachim – angels? He could have sent people? The Mishna tells us (אבות א:ז) to “הרחק משכן רע” – distance oneself from bad neighbors; even a good person can be affected.  אל עשו אחיו – Yaakov is sending to a bad person ארצה שעיר שדה אדום – and to a bad place – to such a place one cannot send people therefore Yaakov needed to send Malachim.
