I'm not sure why everyone loves Jacob so much. Esau was a chad and I suspect the father of the European nation. God said that Abraham would be the father of many nations.
In the Bible, Esau was a hunter and warrior, strong and charismatic. But Jacob was subversive and deceptive. He stole Esau's blessing from their father, Isaac. Jacob was a little rat and created the nation of Israel (ie. the hebrews/semites/etc.)
God Promised that Jacob would take command of the tribe, but eventually Esau would break the yoke of his younger brother.
>Look, your dwelling place will be
away from the richness of the land,
away from the dew of the sky above.
You will live by your sword,
and you will serve your brother.
But when you rebel, you will break his yoke from your neck. - Genesis 27
Any theologians here who want to explain this to me?
> *"And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you."* ~ Galatians 3:29
Those who confess the Holy Name of Jesus Christ are the TRUE heirs to God’s Promise!

> "Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah; and they said to him, “Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint us a king to judge us like all the nations.” But the matter was [a]displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” And Samuel prayed to the Lord. **And the Lord said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people regarding all that they say to you, because they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being King over them. Like all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up from Egypt even to this day—in that they have abandoned Me and served other gods—so they are doing to you as well.** Now then, listen to their voice; however, you shall warn them strongly and tell them of the practice of the king who will reign over them.” ~ 1 Samuel 8:4-9
They've always been proud and disloyal to God. The treated their closeness to God like a kid who found his dad's gun, rather than a shepherd among nations ... that's when Jesus came!
Also, note this: Jesus declared Himself the last Prophet. Before then, God would consistently sent them a Prophet every 300 to 500 years. The jews have not claimed ONE new Prophet since Jesus Christ was crucified. It's been 2,025 years. What happened?
And yet they can't bring their hard hearts to confess the Holy Name of Jesus Christ! *God doesn't speak to them anymore!*
I'm reading the old testament and the hebrews/Israelites are constantly being cunts, and God punishes them constantly. His final covenant with them was Jesus Christ, the messiah, and they not only turned their back on him, but killed him, and then slander him to this day -- the only religion which does so.
I tell these modern jews that God hates them, and it's true. God gave them everything, yet they are still wicked.
Like i already know the guy is evil, i don’t need the fire around him.
