Book 7
📖 Genesis 25—37 Explained Verse-by-Verse ✝️
Why did God say, "Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated"? In this exhaustive 5-hour study, Les Feldick takes us through the pivotal transition from the patriarchs to the twelve tribes of Israel. We begin with the birth of the twins and the controversial sale of the birthright, exploring the sovereignty of God in choosing the line through which the Messiah would eventually come. Les clears up the common misconceptions about Jacob’s "scheming," showing how God’s purpose of election stands regardless of human failure.
The second half of this study dives into the life of Joseph—perhaps the most perfect "type" of Christ found in all of Scripture. From being the beloved son of his father to his rejection by his brothers and eventual exaltation to the throne of Egypt, the parallels to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus are undeniable. Les explains how Joseph’s marriage to a Gentile bride while rejected by his brothers perfectly mirrors God’s current work with the Church. Whether you are studying the origins of the twelve tribes or looking for the Gospel hidden in Genesis, this verse-by-verse teaching brings the Word of God to life. 📜
