We are continuing to learn about the character of the people of the Old Testament. Last week we discussed Jacob and Esau. We learned that although Jacob got wealth and his father's blessing by tricking his father and his brother, he really lost out in the end. He had to flee his home and his brother hated him and planned to kill him.
Yesterday we talked about Jacob's dream. When he was on his way to hide out with his Uncle Laban, Jacob had a dream of a stairway, angels, and God. In this dream, God renewed the convenant He had made to Abraham. Even though Jacob was less than honest, God kept the promise He had made to Abraham. God is so good!
