Esau Despises His Birthright

Dr. Joel Beeke

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.”—Hebrews 12:14-16 

This week, on Doctrine for Life, Dr. Joel Beeke begins his exposition of Genesis 25:27-34, describing Jacob and Esau’s infamous conversation about dinner and a birthright. To enjoy more resources from the pen and pulpit of Dr. Beeke, visit joelbeeke.org
