Sometimes impatience has a high cost. We see this in how Esau traded his birthright for a bowl of stew. But he wasn’t the only one who was impatient. Jacob knew what God had promised and instead of waiting for God, he took advantage of Esau. The bad blood between them would continue for generations until one day, a child of Esau (Herod the Great) would try to wipe out the promised king of Jacob (Jesus).
