So, did I mention that Jacob, aka Israel, the patriarch, the namesake of the nation of God's chosen people was not a very nice guy.
I'm sure that I did.
Here is another example. He tricks his dying, elderly father out of the special blessing that was intended for his older brother.
Yeah, there is the role model you want. This isn't a little deception either - and oh, by the way he's pushed by his mother to do it.
God doesn't require that we be good to be a part of his plan. He requires that we eventually are willing to follow him.
That part is still coming for Jacob.
