Genesis 33:11 Context
9And Esau said, I haue enough: my brother, keepe that thou hast vnto thy selfe. 10And Iacob saide, Nay, I pray thee: if now I haue found grace in thy sight, then receiue my present at my hand: for therefore I haue seene thy face, as though I had seene the face of God; and thou wast pleased with me. 11Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with mee, and because I haue enough: and hee vrged him, and he tooke it. 12And he said, Let vs take our iourney, and let vs goe, and I will goe before thee. 13And hee said vnto him, My lord knoweth, that the children are tender, and the flockes and heards with yong are with mee: and if men should ouer-driue them one day, all the flocke will die.

9 years AgoDanny NguyenI have been thru 31 chapters and most of the chapter cover the test questions that not really important according to that individual chapter. Why all question concerning too much of how many children do they have? what is this children doing and others that doing? What is the name of this person? or who is Jacob brother or etc. Why did you go straight to question about God relationship to each individual of each chapter? I hope the test more regarding to God relationship to human rather than as asked.Flag

9 years AgoJosephI learnt from this Chapter that indeed 'PRAYER CHANGES THINGS '! It was the prayer of Jacob that melted the heart of Esau such that both of them wept Verse 4 . It was because Jacob prayed that God gave him 'a mouth and wisdom ' which Esau could not resist and not only did Esau took the gift from Jacob, but he did not argue with Jacob concerning joint movement to Seir. Jacob moved on with his family as God led him. Our God wants us to pray and be intimate with Him and this will require self discipline and sacrifice from us. may God pour upon all Christians the spirit of prayer and supplication that changes lives, families and nations in Jesus Name.Flag

10 years AgoElizabethSampson osei, jacob did not 'steal' Esau's birthright, Jacob actually bought it from him with a reciept (oath), Gen 25: 31, 33. Nothing comes free in this world. Not even Salvation, 'cause it was paid for by Christ. Afterall God changed his name. But I'm happy he later reconciled with him at last.Flag

Very good perception don't forget to follow the verses and when they start..I am very happy to see someone thinking like you ..Flag

10 years AgoSampson oseiThe best way to revenge is to succeed.Esau was suppsed to be the looder, God Himself said that Jacob I love and Esau I hate, and the same God said in 2 Chronicles 7:13-14, If i shut down the heavens that there be no rain, if i send locust to devour the land and if I send pestilence upon my poeple, If my people that are called by my name shall humble themselves pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, i will hear from heaven and heal their land.Esau had all the chance to kill Jacob but he did not, he left his father's house after that Jacob had taken what belonged to him, God had intended to give to Jacob that blessing, but instead for Jacob to let God give to him in the right way he stole something that belonged to him.According to the blessings jacob received, it was Esau that was supposed to bow to Jacob and call him lord, but here we see Jacob bowing 7 times to Esau and calling him lord.when you dont wait on the Lord to give you what is rightfully yours and you take a short cut, there will always be consequecies.Flag
