We read the story of Jacob stealing the blessing of the Firstborn Son from his brother Esau. Having already stealing his brother’s birthright in Chapter 25, we see the full scale of Jacob’s deception and manipulation to possess what God has already chosen to give him by his own evil schemes and selfishness. We will also see how Rebecca from her complete mistrust toward Esau and her favoritism toward Jacob develops a scheme that will bring a great curse on her and Jacob. Yet, God in His Sovereignty will use their sin to bring about His plan. This Chapter teaches us that what man uses for evil God will cause it to bring good.
