I had Yishai and Binyomin in mind.

I don’t know about Kilav. I had someone else in mind.

Also Amram.

The Gemara says that there were 4 people who only died because of Adam Harishon. Amram, Binyomin, Yishai, and Kilav

When yosef had his dreams, his father yaakov told him that they wouldn't come to fruition.
Rashi says it's because the moon represented yosefs mother, rochel, and she had died.

Where is the source for that within those pesukim?

Yaakov to Eisov- don't be a brother and then backstab me

He says it by Bilaam.
Bilaam asks for permission to curse. Hashem said no. So BIlaam asked if he can bless klal Yisroel. Hashem still said no.
Why? What's wrong with a blessing from Bilaam?
So Rashi comes and says, it's like one would say to a wasp- I don't need your honey nor your sting.

1. Noach - all previous were born with fingers grown together
2. V'avruhom zukain bu bayumim
3. Yaakov - he asked hashem that he should know when he will die, until then everyone just gave a sneeze and died (that's why we say Asisa when someone sneezes)
4. Chana?

All correct except #4. The answer is Avraham, with the tefila for Sedom.
