Previously: COME, ROGER. I WILL SHOW YOU THE LOVE OF TWO BROTHERS.

I KNEW ESAU AND I KNEW JACOB.

CHAPTER 36

Genesis 25: 21 Now Isaac pleaded with the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord granted his plea, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

22 But the children struggled together within her… 24 So when her days were fulfilled for her to give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb. 25 And the first came out red… so they called his name Esau. 26 Afterward his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau’s heel; so his name was called Jacob…

27 So the boys grew… 28 And Isaac loved Esau… but Rebekah loved Jacob.

The LORD then said to me words I knew from scripture:

JACOB I LOVED, BUT ESAU I HATED.

“Lord, I have never understood this.”

Romans 9: For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, 7 nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham… 11 (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), 12 it was said to her, “The older shall serve the younger.” 13 As it is written, “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.”

I TAKE THE WORD OF A MAN SERIOUSLY… FOR BETTER OR WORSE.

ESAU SPOKE AGAINST ME TO JACOB. I AM THE LORD.

Genesis 25: 32 And Esau said, “Look, I am about to die; so what is this birthright to me?”
33 Then Jacob said, “Swear to me as of this day.”
So he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob… Thus Esau despised his birthright.

THE WORD OF A MAN IS ESTABLISHED UNTIL DEATH.
THE WORD OF THE LORD LIVES FOREVER.
