The battle of the brothers continue.  Thing is Jacob had an unfair advantage over Esau because Rebekah loved Jacob more than Esau.  Rebekah helped her younger son get Isaac’s blessing by covering his arms with goat skin and using Esau’s clothes.  Isaac when he was old was blind so he used his hands and nose.  Must have been a little hard of hearing too.  Well Jacob stole Esau’s birthrights and now was about to steal his blessings from his father.  It’s a conspiracy I tell ya!  This kind of stuff is made for TV soap operas LOL.  To get even Esau had vowed to kill his brother and to make his dad mad so he married a Cannanite woman from Ishmaels family.  Remember we read a brief paragraph on Ishmaels family yesterday.  Now Jacob went to get a wife as well and loved a young woman by the name of Rachel but Rachel’s dad tricked him into laying with Rachel’s older sister Leah claiming that it is not their custom to give the younger daughter for marriage before the older one.  Well Jacob loved Rachel and wanted her so Jacob married two women.  He loved Rachel more than Leah but Leah kept having babies.  Makes you think doesn’t it?  Amazing how this dysfunctional family is in the bloodline of our Savior.  Gather the bits and pieces and deduct God’s plan.
