Genesis 27 | God's Concept of Retribution

After Jacob has convinced Esau to sell his birth right in a moment of weakness, the trickery continues. We learn a plethora of things here in this passage:

1. Esau was guilty of bartering divine privilege for carnal gratification.

2. Don’t think you have to help God. If Rebekah would have not devised the plan God would have worked it out his way.

3. Don’t be blind by you own affections to what God wants to do. Isaac was stuck on Esau, God was stuck on Jacob. Isaac wasn’t sensitive to the prophecies of God.

4. Did Jacob earn the blessing? Nope. Something worthy of being grateful for, in our own weaknesses. 

5. Jacob found the acceptance of his father by hiding behind the name of the first born beloved son. He was clothed in his clothes (type of Christ: we’re clothed in his righteousness).
