He tricked; his elder brother, Esau, out of the "birthright, and in other incidents jhe showed himself a cowardly and selfish man. But Jacob at his best proved to be a man upon whom some thing could be built, whereas the more likeable, good-natured Esau, like many likeable, good-natured men, was weak. He was unde pendable, unwilling to bear much responsibility. , And also, Jacob at his best had some remarkable spiritual ex periences. Perhaps the Bible tells us so much about Jacob, at his worst and at his best and about these experiences, because even mean and shifty men can be saved from their meanness and shiftiness. They can have visions of ladders reaching to heaven, and can find God. For God is no respecter of persons, and he does Jielp those who call upon Him in sincerity and truth, even if their character and past conduct have not been what they ought to have been. A man who begins to be re ligious can get a better religious experience a better religion. He can grow in grace. It is the man who never makes a beginning who comes to noth ing. Jacob DID come to some thing better. Bethel was the first step; Peniel (Genesis) saw him really a changed man.
