A bible study exploring scripture chapter by chapter, revealing how the entire bible points to Jesus.
In this episode of the Beyond the Basics Bible Study Podcast, Jacob's blessing and adoption of Joseph's sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, mark a turning point in the passing of the birthright. This chapter points to Jesus as the true firstborn, emphasizing preeminence over birth order. Reflecting on this theme, we're reminded to surrender to Jesus' preeminence in our lives and seek wisdom.
