This volume, Deep-O-Tionals—Genesis: Part 2, explores Genesis 21-36. From his miraculous birth to his near sacrifice at the hand of his father, Isaac is the primary character of the early chapters. When Rebekah, Isaac’s wife from his ancestral homeland, gives birth to twin sons, Esau and Jacob, the story turns to familial strife and intrigue. Jacob’s tricky ways lead to the fulfillment of God’s predicted outcomes resulting in Jacob escaping his brother’s murderous threats and establishing a family of twelve sons and one daughter with four wives in a distant land. Jacob’s journeys away from home and his return trip feature personal encounters with God that develop his faith and deepen his relationships which sustain him in times of both prosperity and loss. The final chapters conclude with the genealogies of both Jacob and Esau—just before Jacob’s favorite son, Joseph, is sold by his jealous brothers to Egypt.
