Genesis 27 & 28

Published on: 26th February, 2024

Why did Rebekah want Jacob to lie to Isaac? Was Isaac wrong to favor Esau? If the birthright was already Jacob's, why was it likewise wrong for him to steal the blessing too? Is there a reason craftiness isn't always the best idea? What was the purpose of the blessing? How did Isaac's blindness come into play for this interaction? What blessing did Esau receive? Why did Jacob have to flee his home to Laban's house? How did Esau learn the wrong lesson from Isaac and Rebekah wanting Jacob to marry better than him? How was God faithful to Jacob in the midst of this flight?
