A lecture by Dr. David Neiman
Chapter four finds Abraham old and wealthy. He sends his servant off with 10 camels laden with gold. The servant meets Rebecca at the well where she draws water for him and his camels. The Lord predicts that she will give birth to two nations; one will be stronger than the other and the elder will serve the younger. Esau sells his birthright to Jacob, the shepherd, for a bowl of porridge.
