Summary
Going on into verse 29, it says, once when Jacob was cooking a stew, Esau came in from the field and he was famished. Verse 33, Jacob said, swear to me first, so he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. So even though Esau had sold the birthright to Jacob, Isaac was going to go ahead and go to the birthright. So when Esau went to the field to hunt for game and bring it, Rebecca said to her son, Jacob, I heard your father say to your brother Esau, bring me game and prepare for me savory foods that eat that I may bless you before the Lord before I die. Go to the flock, get me two choice kids so that I may prepare for them savory food for your father, such as he likes and you shall take it to your father to eat so that he may bless you before he dies. The scripture says in verse 22 of chapter 25, it says, that children struggled together within her and she said, if it is to be this way, why do I live?
