Jacob & Esau: Two Nations & The Inheritance
As prophetic representatives of two nations, Jacob and Esau foretold of a great paradigm shift in the redemptive plan of God.
“Jacob & Esau, Two Nations & The Inheritance” will take you on a journey through various places in the Scriptures whereby God had foretold of Israel’s Messiah, Jesus, who by way of the Cross confirmed the Abrahamic covenant making him the father of “many nations” through the New Covenant in Jesus’ shed blood.
Using not just written prophecy by the prophets but actual historical events of the children of Israel, God foretold of the time when the “womb” of the nations would be opened up, the middle wall of partition would be removed between Jew and Gentile, and God’s Church would become one in His hand or “one new man in Christ”.
The pictures, types, and shadows that are often overlooked will be illuminated and will forever change the way you view the Bible.

Front Cover:
In the chapter entitled “From Abraham to the Cross,” I discussed how Jesus reconciled Jew and Gentile together as He hung on the cross. With his hands held out, it’s up to us, both Jew and Gentile alike, to accept the saving hand of Jesus. With the men, representing Jew and Gentile, Jesus not only offers salvation to all through the crucifixion of the flesh, he joins the two together into Himself as “one new man in Christ.” The promise to Abraham was being confirmed for its imminent fulfillment and the two sticks of Ezekiel 37 were in the process of becoming one in God’s hand. On the one stick hung Judah and Israel and on the other, Joseph and Ephraim, according to the prophecy. Since Ephraim was blessed to become the fullness of the Gentiles, that is exactly who was hanging on the other stick.
“And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thy hand” (Ezekiel 37:17).
Back Cover:
Abraham sleeps while God alone performs the ritual of the unconditional promise that He made with him, prophetically looking down the long, two‑thousand‑year path toward its confirmation on Calvary where God, through Christ, becomes the Father of “many nations.”
