Bible Question: WHY WAS JACOB ENTITLED TO THE COVENANT BLESSING IN GENESIS CHAPTER 25 THUR 35 |
Bible Answer: Because God chose him. It is an example of the mystery of election. Despite Jacob's cheating ways, God can bring good even from evil. See also the story of Joseph and his brothers. Re Jacob see Psalm 135:4; Psalm 47:4;Isaiah 41:8; Malachi 1:2; Romans 9:13. In the context of malichi and Romans "hate" is Hebrew way of say "loved less." It does not imply harte the way our usage of the word does. Emmaus |
