No nation has been subjected to a wider range of biblical attitudes and emotions than Edom. In some sources, Edom is perceived as Israel’s brother; in many others, the animosity toward Edom is tremendous. The book of Genesis introduces Isaac, his wife Rebecca, and their twin sons, Esau and Jacob. Rivalry between the brothers emerges even before their birth and escalates over the course of their lives. The question of which son should be favored also causes tension in the parents’ relationship, and most of the Genesis text concerning Isaac and Rebecca revolves around this issue. The narrative describes the fraternal conflict between Jacob and Esau at length, and many hold that this description is a reflection of the hostility between Edom and Israel. However, the relationship between the brothers is not always depicted as strained. The twofold relationship between the brothers in Genesis—brotherhood and fraternity coupled with hatred and rivalry—introduces a dichotomy that is retained throughout the Hebrew Bible. In this monograph, Assis elucidates the complex relationship between Edom and Israel reflected in the Bible, to attempt to clarify the source of this complexity and the function that this relationship serves in the various biblical texts and Israel’s early history. He shows how this relationship plays an important role in the formation of Israel’s identity, and how the historical interaction between the nations influenced the people’s theological conception, as reflected in prophetic literature, poetry, and biblical narrative.

Jacob-Israel God's Man Of Faith And Power Loved by God and chosen while still in the womb, Jacob was born reaching out to claim the high calling of God on his life. His role in the Plan of Redemption was to father the nation through whom God would speak to a lost creation. It is time someone spoke a good word for Jacob-Israel, whose descendants changed the world! This book offers a refreshingly different view of this spiritual forefather of our faith. Over-emphasis on his morals has largely obscured his faith in God's promises which made him a channel of blessing to all people. Believers in every age who are used by God to further His Plan are, like Jacob, often misunderstood. An examination of his heart and motives explores the reasons why God's chosen instruments often suffer. Do we always reap what we sow? Are life's trials always the result of our personal sins? An avid Bible student from early youth, Frances developed a lifelong love of God's Word which has inspired her to write this book about her favorite Bible character. Frances lives in Springdale, AR near her 2 grown daughters; she also has a son in Houston.

Jacob's Dozen is a study of the biblical history and prophecies associated with each of the tribes of Israel. It is based on Jacob's deathbed prophecies concerning each of his twelve sons found in Genesis 49. The remarkable manner in which each prophecy was fulfilled in that tribe's history is clearly explained. Other fascinating subjects, such as the lost tribes of Israel and the role of the tribes in the end times, are explored. You will be amazed and blessed by this scholarly, yet readable prophetic look at the tribes of Israel.
