Lesson_43_Esau_Birthright

Esau grew up to be a rugged hunter, while Jacob was a quiet man who lived in the tents. One day, Esau came

home from hunting exhausted and famished. Jacob was cooking a delicious-smelling red lentil stew. In a

moment of absolute weakness, Esau famously traded away his entire spiritual and financial birthright to his

younger brother for a single bowl of soup! It was the worst trade in history. Today, we will explore the science

of that lentil stew, the economics of making a bad trade, and the incredible danger of letting our temporary

physical appetites control our eternal destiny.
