Description:
Erica is having trouble with her little sister, Hayley. Bernard Walton tells Erica the story of a real sibling rivalry, one of the greatest in history, in fact, between twin brothers named Esau and Jacob. It's a story filled with treachery, jealousy, thievery, hatred, thoughts of murder, and, ultimately, brotherly love. Read all about it yourself in Genesis!

 

Questions:
What did God mean when He told Rebekah that "two nations struggle in her womb"? What is a birthright? Why was a father's blessing so important? Why didn't Esau kill Jacob like he vowed?
