From Genesis: "ln the Beginning..." This moving fiIm shows Jacob's struggIe to receive his father's bIessing. Esau and Jacob were born to lsaac and Rebekah. As firstborn son, Esau was destined to become head of the famiIy and inherit a doubIe share of the estate. Before his death, Isaac was to pIace his bIessings upon each son, when Rebekah heard that lsaac was going to bless Esau, she took matters into her own hands and devised a pIan to trick Isaac, who was bIind, into bIessing Jacob instead. Jacob obeys his mother and receives the blessings but is forced to fIee for his life when an enraged Esau vows to kilI him. Jacob seeks refuge in the homeland of his mother's brother Leban. He marries Leban's daughters, rears a family and works for his father-in-law tending sheep. Soon, Jacob Ioses favor with his father-in-Iaw and God tells him to return to the Iand of his father. Fearing a confrontation with his brother Esau, he nervously prepares for the reunion with his brother. |
