| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
| 0:07.0 | Yesterday, Isaac and Rebecca had twin sons and God made an unusual promise to bless the |
| 0:18.8 | younger one, Jacob, instead of the older one, he saw. We saw God's plan unfolding when older brother Esau |
| 0:26.0 | sold Jacob the rights to his inheritance in exchange for lentils stew. |
| 0:31.0 | And today we'll take a few more steps in that direction when the sins of both |
| 0:35.0 | Rebecca and Isaac also play a role in this. Rebecca tricks her husband into giving |

| 0:44.4 | Isaac goes against the words of God by intending to bestow his blessing on the child |

| 1:24.0 | When Isaac was accidentally giving the blessing to Jacob instead of Esau, |
| 1:28.0 | he uses some of the very same phrases and ideas that God did in 2523. |
| 1:33.6 | Isaac said, |
| 1:35.0 | Be Lord over your brothers and may your mother's sons bow down to you. |
| 1:39.3 | Decades earlier, God had said, |
| 1:42.1 | The older shall serve the younger. |
| 1:45.0 | Esau, of course, hates this, and he hates Jacob. |
