It is another week to be blessed as you take the journey with me into scriptures to learn about how Yahweh has been dealing with his creations. He has been dealing with us in relative and absolute ways. This week blog is another example for you to learn. To remind you of last week blog, there were contests between Jacob's two wives. The lesson was very intense and educative. Please, take time to read it if you have not. I stopped at Genesis 30:1-25 last week. Yahweh eventually gave Rachel her first son. It was a huge victory for Rachael. Jacob requested Laban to go back to his parents with all his belongings including his two wives and their children (verse 26). Laban began to play tricks on Jacob. First of all, he stated that he h

I pray that you get blessed as you read this week blog. I am going to complete my review on Genesis chapter 29 and discuss part of chapter 30. After 14 years of Jacob's sojourn in the land of Padan-Syria, he married Leah and Rachael. These wives were the two daughters of Laban. Laban tricked Jacob into marrying Leah because Leah was not attractive. More so, Laban had observed that Jacob would be a better husband to his two daughters because he had been a great blessing to him in taking care of his flocks. What a scammer and a user. Genesis chapter 29:31-to the end showed that Jacob's love was towards Rachael (whom Jacob actually loved). However, Yahweh saw a

I pray that this week blog blesses you beyond my imagination. Last week blog discusses that at the heel of the incidence that occurred between Esau and Jacob; Jacob's parents instructed him to go to Padan-Syria (Padan-Aram) to live. He was charged to stay with Laban the brother of Rebecca. He was also charged to marry from there because they were grieved at Esau's decision to marry daughters of Heth who they did not accept. Jacob had a dream while he was sleeping and this week, he found himself in Padan-Syria (eastward of Gerar of Canaan).                Jacob stopped at a well and asked the shepherds if they knew Laban (son of Nahor). He was informed that they kne

Last week blog discussed a lot about how Yahweh carried out the secret he kept with Rebecca. Please, read last week blog for details of my view on Genesis chapter 27.                In Genesis chapter 28, Jacob's parents blessed him and sent him to Padan-Syria to marry his wife. He was sent to Laban the sister of Rebecca to get married. Just like in Genesis chapter 24, Jacob's parents preferred him not to marry from the city they were sojourning. I believe this is a thing of great concern from parents. It is advisable for people to marry from their tribe. Tradition and language matter a lot. I am not advocating again
