a solution of the perplexing problem v 22 god had made it known to her that although jacob was technically the younger he was to attain supremacy over the elder brother in his dealings with men god has very little regard for primogeniture in his sovereign grace he quite often sees fit to ordain that the elder shall serve the younger the fact that god had revealed his purpose to rebekah that jacob should have the supremacy over- esau did not 4n the least justify the false and wicked methods the woman employed to bring to pass the revealed purpose of the lord jacob manifested his character

and often ques tionable methods h the selling of a birthright 29 34 as we read this incident we are forced to the conclusion that for a grown man esau acted childishly foolishly even re- prehensively and is deserving of no pity in the circumstances on the other hand the fact that his brother played the fool furnishes no excuses for jacobs scurvy conduct there is no question but that he was meanness incarnate arid one can have mo other feeling but one of contempt for the petty way in which he took advantage of his brothers folly esau was beyond doubt hungry and faint but he was not at the point of death as in his childishness he as serted he was he had nothing more serious the matter with hun than a spell of- natural fatigue common to all healthy men who exert themselves the fact is the man saw nothing felt noth ing but his immediate need he hid no appreciation of his birthright or of what was involved in it he was ready a parrashoot he sed they all ways seam 6d like such stow

him cf his folly and strove hard to regain that which he had lost ch 22 3237 but it was too late and beyonci his power so we read that esau cried with a great arid exceeding bitter cry ch 27 34 but his tears availed him nothing and he found no place to change his mind heb 12 17 he had sold his birth right for a mess of pottage and when he afterward desired to inherit the bless ing he was rejected later esau com plained bitterly that jacob had sup planted him twice that he had taken away his birthright and had taken away his blessing ch 27 36 but in point of fact the blame rested upon himself hadiie been hto own man had he shown anything of the quality of endurance the worst that could have happened him would have been a scurrlous attempt made upon his rightful possessions by his own brother bad enough in all ponsclence but only for jacob it could never have- harmed esau but because he was a creature qf appetite because he thought more of instant gratification than lifelong
