Q3. (Genesis 28:18-21) What did it mean to Jacob to set up the stone? What did anointing the stone mean to him? Why does he do these things? What does he promise God in his vow?

The erection of the stone was Jacob acknowledging his own faith in God. It was anointed to show Jacob's cleansing and his dedication to God, it was his promise to love and worship God and to follow God's word. His promise was if God took care of him that he would Follow GOD.

[Q3. Jacob Deceives His Father Isaac]

I don't think Rebekah can be excused from the deception. a lie is a lie. Jacob was weak in character because he didn't say"no this is the wrong thing to do" Neither were willing to wait on God's promise,they took things into their own hands so for the rest of their lives they lived a lie.

[Q1. Selling the Birthright]

selling his birthright was looked on as lack of faith in the new testament. it showed he put more value on getting something for himself for the moment than holding onto something of value from his father.The birthright was a legacy handed down from his father and should have meant more to him than a bowl of soup.It shows that Esau's values and morals were more earthly. Jacob proved he was deceitful and couldn't be trusted and would easily betray anyone to get what he wanted. I think the saddest part is that he deceived his father, if you can lie that easily to your father then you have no character, no morals,no values at all
