Imaginative Conservative

Holy Prophet Samuel

Maybe Not Everything Jacob Did Was Praiseworthy

Indeed, especially in his life before receiving the name of Israel, which was not given in exchange for him overcoming God, but as a gift?

And our Lord is confirming this?

There is something odd (almost, dare I say, ironic) about our Lord calling Nathanael "a true Israelite, without guile" (John 1:47), since of course the original Israel (Jacob), was a man of preeminent guile, who tricked his brother Esau and his father Isaac to get his blessing.
