In this packed episode, Kerry and Robbie Taggart explore Jacob's actions as he obtains blessings and covenants with God. They examine different ways of viewing Jacob when he deceives Isaac, and of looking at his life as he is married and has children. Kerry and his roundtable colleagues also look at the issues involved with slavery in the Old Testament. Kerry also looks at the wrestle Jacob has with an angel in terms of idolatry, covenant, and the abrahamic sacrifice.
