It presents Isaac and Rebekah’s long-awaited children, Isaac’s prayer, and God’s response leading to pregnancy with twins. Before birth, the twins struggle in the womb, prompting Rebekah to ask the Lord. The Lord reveals they will become rival nations, with descendants of the older serving those of the younger.","008 Jacob and Esau  \nGenesis 25:19-34; 27:1-46  \nEnglish Spiritual  \n008 Jacob and Esau  \nEnglish  \n© 2020 Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc.  \n[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.

Years passed and Rebekah had no children. Isaac prayed to the Lord for her. The Lord answered his prayer, and Rebekah became pregnant.  \nRebekah was going to have twins, and before they were born, they struggled against eachother in her womb.  \nRebekah prayed and asked the Lord what this meant.  \nThe Lord told her,“The sons in your womb will become two rival nations. The descendants of your older son will serve the descendants of  \n”  \nyour younger son.  \nThe time came for her to give birth, and she had twin sons. The first one was reddish, and his skin was like a hairy robe, so he was named Esau.  \nThe second one was born clutching tightly to the heel of Esau, so he was named Jacob.","cbCaiiU61XUb4086","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiU61XUb4086","pdf",7108547,6,1,40,"English","en",105,"# Jacob and Esau in Genesis\n## Pregnancy and prayer\n## Twins struggle in the womb\n## God’s message and birth names","[{\"question\":\"What led Rebekah to become pregnant according to the story?\",\"answer\":\"Rebekah had no children for years.
