Blessing of Jacob - Gerrit Horst Williamsz Google Art Project - Wiki Commons Images My Mini-Bible Study for 2019 Read the Bible in a Year Using The NRSV Daily Bible Today’s Reading 1/10/2019 Day 10 Genesis 25:19 - 28:9 Reflection This reading deals with the birth right is to be given to the eldest but is not.

(I have never understood the repeat of the Abe and...
