The Beginning of Descendants From
Jacob
What is Isaac referencing as he mentions “the blessing of Abraham” to Jacob in Genesis 28:4?
What do we learn about Esau in Genesis 28:6-9? Take a moment to remind yourself of the choices
Esau had already made in Genesis 26:34-35 and the effects of those choices in Genesis 27:46
Describe in your own words what Jacob experiences in Genesis 28:10-17.
Is there anything we can learn about Jacob from his reaction the next morning to what he has
experienced (Gen 28:18-22)?
After carefully reading Genesis 29, how does Jacob come to be married to Leah rather than
Rachel?
Is there anything we can learn about Leah from the names she gives to her children in Genesis
29:31-35?
What can we learn about Rachel from her envy and actions in Genesis 30:1-8?
What should we take away from what is recorded in Genesis 30:14-18?
Why does tension seem to develop between Laban and Jacob in Genesis 30:25-43? How do both men handle the tension?
