JACOB (A SELFISH MAN ‘TRANSFORMED). Genesls, xxv.19-34; xxvii.34; xIvi.28; xlvil.12. Golden Text—For what shall & man be profited, if he shall gain the whole world and forfeit his life? Or what shall a man glve in exchange for his soul?— Matthew, xvi.26. Jacob impresses one, as failing to come up to the predictions that the Spirit of the Lord had made of him preceding his birth. While he failed to measure up to the prophetic words in the early days of his life, so that he appeared to be “umpromising material out of which to make a great ancestor and leader of the chosen people of God.” Nevertheless divine grace selected this worldly minded man to become the head of His chosen people, and to whose descendants He would intrust “the oracles of God,” and from whose stock would come the promised Mes- siah. Although Jacob was the younger born, it had been predicted that he would .obtain and exercise dominion over his twin brother, Esau, “and that he should be the progenitor of & great and powerful nation, and that they who sprang from his loins should be para- mount to all the descendants of his elder brother.” Parental partiality is the source of the sins of both sons, as it is largely the cause of the failure of many of our modern youths, Isaac's partiality to Esau and Rebekah's attitude toward Jacob caused a family division that de- veloped finally into a bitter tribal an- tagonism. The suffering, sorrow and separation from the joys of the home that this partiality caused failed to teach Jacob to avoid the same blunder. It brought to him, as it will bring to every parent who exercises partiality toward his children, trials, tears and trouble, that could be avoided if par- ents refused to show partiality toward their own. The Supplanter’s Sinful Scheme. Jacob understood the art of cooking. The pottage that he was making ap- pealed to Esau when he returned from one of his hunting expeditions. The cunning, crafty and cowardly Jacob took advantage of his brother’s hunger to propose that Esau sell him his rights of being the first born for.a mess of pottage. Esau sold his privileges for a bowl of soup, because in his hour of hunger its savory smell appealed to him. He bartered away his God-given rights, because he did not consider the future. The man who thinks only of the present moment is not apt to have & great spiritual development. Probably both had discussed this matter of birthright previously. Jacob took ad- vantage of his own brother’s needs to secure the privileges by a barter that was far from being just and fair, any way it is considered. He made Esau confirm it by a holy oath, that was equivalent to making him sign the dot- ted line, Too many men today are fol- lowing in the footsteps of both Jacob and Esau. Assisted by his mother, Jacob suc- ceeded in deceiving his father, so that he obtained from him the parental blessing that he planned to bestow upon Esau, who was his favorite son. Re- bekah, who had suggested and helped Jacob deceive his aged and blind father, realized the possible peril that Jacob would face when the facts were made known to Esau upon his return, so upon his mother’s suggestion, Jacob started upon & journey of 500 miles to Haran. He realized that he had secured by treachery rights and blessings that he desired, but he had not realized the cost of his sin until he was forced to leave the Yruence of his mother. His iniquity filled his thought and made his journey one of melancholy. In & desolate spot, worn out by the day's travel and with a stone for a pillow, the young exile tried to sleep and dreamed. The vision opened up the presence of the Lord, and he made a covenant with Jehovah. He had given to him a revelation of God's program and he entered into partnership with Him. He was filled with the convic- tion that “the Lord was in this place and I knew it not.” His fears left him and he dedicated that place as a house of God. Reaping What He Sowed. ‘When Jacob started to work for Laban, we see the commencement of the transformation that God started in Jacob’s life in his love for Rachel. He had no funds with which to furnish a dowry. He met his match and reaped what he had sowed at the hands of Laban, who took advantage of Jacob and compelled him to serve him many long years before he was entitled to Rachel as his wife. The necessity of his supporting his two wives and their children called for further effort. Finally, after many years of struggle, sacrifices and serv- ice, Jacob was filled with the desire to return to his birthplace and see his own people once more. Although Jacob had reaped from Laban what he had sowed, God was at work transforming the selfish man into a loving and devoted husband and father. On Jacob’s return to the promised land, God met him at Peniel, where Jacob wrestled one night with an angel of God at brook Jabbok. That night marked a complete ‘transforma- tion in Jacob's character, for Jehovah gave him a new name. He had been Hniversalist Universalist National Memorial Church Corner 16th & S Sts. N.W. Rev.

Grafflin, D. D. Everyone Cordially Invii Jacob, & cheat and supplanter up to that hour, and henceforth he was to be known as Israel, for as a prince he had prevailed with God. He was ready then ‘to meet his brother and make ample restitution in an effort to wipe out the memory of his former treacherous actions. He sent forward the choicest possessions from his flock in such a manner that Esau was ap- peased and a complete reconciliation was made between the two brothers. Esau probably was moved by the changed appearance and walk of his brother to that extent that he fell upon his neck and gave him the kiss of reconciliation. Reaching Shechem, where his grand- father had pitched his first tent and erected his first altar, Jacob settled down, bought a plece of ground and erected an altar dedicated to the wor- ship of Jehovah. As a servant of God, the former supplanter enjoved the peace of his fellowship with God. But the transforming power was not completed. The discipline of exile had failed to teach Jacob the folly of parental parti- ality. He showed his affection and devo- tion for his son Joseph to that extent that he lost him through the treachery of his own sons. He reaped again some fruitage of his sins. But the mys- terious providence of God brought Joseph to the throne of power in Egypt in an hour, when the perils of famine had forced Jacob to send his sons for food supplies into Egypt. There Joseph recognized his brethren and obtained from them the facts about his father and brother. Finally Jacob was brought with his family and flocks under the protection of Joseph. There in Egypt the work of transforming the sinful and selfish man was completed. The aged father enjoyed the fellowship of his son and his protection until the final end came to him. ‘The experience of ‘Jacob teaches us the folly of treachery and sin. Let us seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and we will obtain every needed blessing of life. If Jacob found it paid to give the Lord a tithe, how much ought we to give, consid- ering how He has given unto us sal- vation and the fellowship of the church in helping Him develop His kingdom among men, Let us work out with fear and trembling the salvation that He has first worked into our lives so that we may be transformed into His likeness to that extent that men may see we have been with Jesus and learned of Him.
