We start this week’s lesson by watching a video of Mac King doing The Rope Trick (https://youtu.be/xmI9uwYzH9o). This is the second of three very prophetic sections surrounding Jacob and Esau. An interesting historical study to be sure, but the prophetic implications are awesome.
Why did Esau not kill Jacob in the desert when they met? Had he not sworn to do so? Why did God tell Jacob to return to Bethel and “Get rid of the foreign gods he had with him?”
Did Jacob cause Rachel’s death? When Jacob and the family camp at the mig-dawl’ ay-der outside of Bethlehem, do you know where they were? When he built an alter at El-bethel do you know where he was? Do you think any of this was an accident?
