About this episode

The episode discusses the concept of true Israel being defined by promise rather than ethnicity, illustrated through the story of Jacob and Esau.

This text shows us that being true Israel is not about ethnicity but about promise. Two sons in the same womb but one is chosen and one is rejected, before they were ever born.
