Study Gem : Esauw / Edom
Genesis 25:30 – Esauw was also called Edom. H123 – ‘ĕḏōm in hebrew comes from the root word Adom (H122 – ‘āḏōm) – which means “red”, and also relates to Adam H120 – ‘āḏām.
Also, the prophet Obadiah begins his prophecy in Chapter 1 about Edom – a generation known as those who think themselves to be wise/skillful/cunning/crafty/learned.
Study Gem : Jacob
Genesis 25:26 – Jacobs name (H3290 – yaʿăqōḇ) means grabbing/holding on to the heel or supplanter. The first time “heel” (H6119 – ʿāqēḇ) is mentioned, is off course Genesis 3:15, with the serpent that will strike HIS heel!
Verse 27 mentions that Jacob dwelled in tents.. In Hebrew culture this means he was a shepherd and he followed his flock to protect them.
IMPORTANT SCRIPTURES / PROPHECIES:
| Gen 25:23 Two Nations There always seems to be this theme of two nations or two brothers throughout Scripture. So YHVH answered Rebekkah on her prayer for children, that there are two nations in her womb, and the older will server the younger. So it does not matter how this plays out, with Jacob tricking his dad Isaac, it was promised by YHVH that that is how it was to be. |
