About this episode

The episode explores the complexities of Jacob's journey and the fragile nature of the blessing as he transitions to being known as Israel.

The Fragile Nature of the Blessing Jacob is yet to be known by his new name, Israel. It will be centuries before Israel will be known as the Land God promised to Jacob and his descendants. It seems like God is in no rush to introduce him and his son’s as we begin to read of their episodes. Sometimes it will make us cringe that these guys are supposed be the emissaries of the blessing, when they can barely get along. We must realize that civilization was not civilized to understand God’s process of releasing them into the world as His representatives. Before long God will use Israel using three objects symbolically. Compass—Plumbline—Time piece. Later we will see how these connect as the path of righteousness hosts its first sojourners.
