Bible Question: Where did Jacob get the game and how come Easu did not know about it, or get it? |
Bible Answer: Hello. In verse 9 of the same chapter, Rebekah,Isaac's wife, is telling Jacob what to do, and that she will prepare the game just as Isaac likes it.Jacob went down to the flock (on his own back yard) to bring "two choice kids of the goats"..................When I read about Essau I see that he wasn't very sharp. He's priorities were off. I think that is why it was easy for Jacob to supplant him. Twice he did; birthrights and blessing(Gen 27:36) |
