But if one is careful only to speak truth and not falsehood, he clings to Yaakov Avinu, whose attribute is truth, and with that power one can overcome the yetzer hara. Likewise, when one sits at Shalosh Seudos and extends it with zemiros and divrei Torah, since this seudah corresponds to Yaakov Avinu, one also receives a holiness to be able to overcome the power of falsehood of the yetzer hara.
