Summary

*Remastered* Listen to the story of the first set of twins mentioned in the Bible--Jacob and Esau--the sons of Isaac and Rebekah. I always enjoyed hearing about them because I am also a twin. It is a short story but full of deception and greed. To hear what happens after this episode, go to the episode entitled "The Story of Jacob and Rachel" followed by "Jacob Returns Home."


We are reading from Genesis 25, 26:34, and 27.
