Look at his wives and see if any were overlooked of the older and the younger Jew and their gentile sisyer

and these were tied to Jacob before GOD renamed Jacob "Israel" and considered each of his offspring heads over the 12 tribes

Jacob was another polygamist in the bible. Each of his wives held different roles to serve their part to play in his life, they were fantastic stories of the bible.

GOD's WORD pointed us to spiritual truths

you are Jacob's flesh?
If you want to know the truth Esau, by giving up his birthright for temporal food was more fleshly and imperfect than Jacob who married to himself the older and the younger generational Jewish bride along with the older and younger generational gentile bride

Jacob earned the birthright as the first "born" son

not based on flesh but based on GOD calling and making that distinction

Jacob remains Jacob until he is called into Israel

And GOD wasn't pointing to a location but to HIS SON

THAT ISRAEL, HIS SON

I don't believe that there is anything in the bible that promotes bigamy. Just because it is in the bible does not mean that it is right or wrong.
Well good. Because that isn't what we are duscussing

Not discussing fleshly things. Not discussing polygamy. God used Lower signs and representations to point to HIS HIGHER HIDDEN SPIRITUAL TRUTHS

Whwn you adjust your eyes off of the flesh we can continue. Until then keep seeing but not SEEING

The older generational gentile sister as Javob's bride
The younger Jewish generational sister as Javob's bride
The younger generational gentile sister as Jacob's bride

All along GOD was looking for godly offspring
and the Jew was supposed to be a light to all men teaching all men about GOD

in fact GOD told His First chosen whom He took out from "Egypt" and into "Israel" by HIS strong arm (of salvation) to not treat an alien as an alien because they too were once aliens

but that the alien amongst them who wished to celebrate the Passover needed to be corcumcised

the desire to celebrate the Passover came first and then the outward sign of a covenant between GOD and man
and all this was from the beginning based on GOD making the distinction between HIS flocks and "the wrong King and his flocks"

We were never discussing a physical house

israel is made up of many who have been called and all are one house with One Spiritusl Head over the whole House/flock for GOD


if you do not believe than look at the JERUSALEM coming down from heaven as a bride adorned for HER HUSBAND and note that the 12foundations of the apostle's and the 12 gates of the 12 tribes of Israel are together and make up ONE JERUSALEM/ONE HOUSE/ONE PEOPLE

So the inheritance of Israel the nation is initially found in THE LORD

"Jacob" still continues to struggle with GOD but one day GOD will no longer hide HIS FACE from Jacob and Jacob will hear HIS VOICE and will be called into ISRAEL

All of Jacobs wives were Hebrew, just because they two of them were maids does not make them gentiles, and none of them were Jewish because the Jews are of the tribe of Judah and he was not born yet.

Jesus said it was not like this in the beginning. God made one woman for Adam. Christ has one bride. Qualifying elders must have one wife. Bigamy is not from God. Even men of God sinned, just because it's mentioned does not mean it's right.
