Two manner of people one who will follow God’s Law, the other who will go his own way. Two nations in the womb they are both twins but LOOK the same but are they? They both broke God’s Laws. Jacob lied to his blind father by pretending to be Esau, Esau didn’t honour his father cos of his birthright they both broke God’s commandments. Rebecca went to the Lord to inquire when the Lord says the younger will serve the elder and she made sure that it would happen so she deceived her husband. The Lord is all knowing but it doesn’t mean he agreed with it what he told Rebecca and with what Rebecca did. The manner of people one who will follow the Lord the other going his own way to be wicked❤😊

Jacob studying is intriguing. Im a mumin (the original true term for the followers of the Quran) and in the scripture Abraham and Ishmael were given the title of Messenger and thus bore scripture. It seems likely that Jacob had spent his time studying the scriptures of his grandfather and uncle if we use deductive reasoning. This was a great video cousin, Salam/Shalom

[@amiyah5834]

Well since your suppose to be righteous, how about telling these people who are the true Kings and Queens of this earth. My people are woke now, and we now understand why this world trampled us and showed us no mercy, but it was worth the test, because my people has a brilliant future ahead of us. Jacob is still here, but we forgot whobwe were but now, we are rising and understanding who we are spiritually. This world will be surprised to find out the WOOLLY haired man mouth are the Sons of God!! 👁🤴🏾👸🏽☀️

Thank you!🙏

[@smulktis]

I really needed to hear this. Thank you for all your wonderful study material and general wisdom. I have been seeking understanding and interpretation of this fascinating story of brotherly betrayal for a long time from many an elder… so does the analogy extend all the way to our spiritual souls (Jacob) running away from the body dimension (Esau) for dear life? And why does God give Jacob a big piece of candy (Israel) as a reward for rebellion and an adversarial wrestling match leaving him with a broken hip and a new name?? (Israel)

[@Godrules1111]

Jacob is the Wheat and Esau was a tare in the Wheat. God loved Jacob and hated Esau. On Christmas Day, Jacob came to me, he was wearing a golden crown on his head while holding a golden scepter in his hand. I didn't understand why he presented himself to me, so I proceeded to do more research on Jacob which led me to the book of Yasher Chapter 56 and it was in that chapter I saw where Esau died a disgrace to his family because his hate for his brother overtook him.

[@iulia1690]

Very interesting

[@jrutt2675]

Esav killed the Messiah because he wanted a material kingdom! Jesus Yahusha tells us this in John 10:26-28 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.

[@rigaudmoise3679]

WHICH ONE IS GOOD AND WHO IS THE BAD.

[@WeCube1898]

Both did wicked and good things, just that the younger one sought repentance from The Creator, demonstrated/furthered his trust in The Creator, seeked reconciliation and forgiveness with his brother, and worked himself towards becoming a better steward of their ForeFathers' Faith. Whilst the older was consumed by his own .

[@boootybounce420]

Romans 10:8

[@jeupater1429]

Reducing Rome to "Esau" blinds you too complexity and multidimensionality that was Rome. Really it's a type of hate speech.

[@joelessor652]

Thank You,, but You never finished the story about the Kings son???

[@pavelp9887]

He did. The whole point was that the son wanted to celebrate every time he got the letter from his father the king but celebrate what? He couldn’t tell his friends he’s the prince. So he made a party for people just to party and for him to celebrate the letter he got. He compared this to us getting a letter from the almighty sometimes.

[@leeboss373]

Who is Esau?

[@mehburnard6735]

Mennonite girl’s mind blown here.

[@mossig]

I'm disappointed! I wanted to hear your view of the story of Jacob and Esau and how it through ages have an impact still today. But it was more a lecture about human behavior. For that I can watch psychology channels.

[@esausjudeannephew6317]

The Jewish people are the Nieces& Nephews of Uncle Esau..I think we're still suffering from a multi generational guilt complex. Look how we tak about him. "Nobody honored his father like Esav".....He could perform kosher butchering with a BOW.....but he's rumererd to have fed Isaac dog meat......Very "schizophrenic".. interpretation of the character. One says he kissed him what "kol leebo" a full ❤️ heart... Another says he tried to bite Yaakov's neck. It says alot about us, that we put his Head in machpela but we take every opportunity to pull it out and slap the face. Tikun is NOT COMPLETE.....I was joking @ yeshiva that Jesus was Esav's way to get back IN the family....and I was reacted to with the comment: No. Jesus was his way to get back AT the family.😮 So, I chewed on that😅

[@mrcooper7027]

The Jewish people are Esau descendants, through Esau's grandson Amalek the Synagogue of Satan. Jewish people don't believe in the bible there main book of worship is the Babylonian Talmud. Who takes spiritual advice from the devil.

[@aleeman1718]

This rabbi is a joke? In one of a episode you teach us who is Ishmael( The vader and ancester of the Arab and later moslim world) Isaac is( The vader of de Jewish world) Esau the( ancester and vader of Room, the westerns christians world) WHO IS JACOB? WHO ARE THE CHILDREN OF JACOB? THE BLACK PEOPLE ARE THE CHILDREN OF JACOB. CAN YOU TALK ABOUT IT? THE BLACK PEOPLE NO IT, THEY UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE.

[@EnjoyTheShoah]

Absolutely hilarious

[@Bruno-by8pb]

Why are you using the Dutch word for father?

[@chillnation6604]

Jewish People are descendants of Esau. Why do Jewish people try to separate themselves from Esau? Jewish people are seeds of Esau not Jacob!

[@esausjudeannephew6317]

I've heard this stupid rummer b4. The only reason you even have the story is because it's a classic story from the Jews. To begin with. It's THEIR STORY from THIER BOOK. YOU CAN INTERPRET IT HOWEVER YOU WANT. IF you want to say that Superman comes from Gotham City and Batman comes from Krypton go right ahead.... enjoy.
