How the Twins Were Born

Wrestling in the Womb

Esau and Jacob were twins that were very different from each other. They looked different and had different preferences.

One similarity was, both of them seemed to hate losing. They even wrestled in the womb as if they each wanted to come out first! It seems like neither one of them wanted to yield.

When we look at our own families, what does our relationships look like? What are some similarities and differences we see between our families and Esau and Jacob’s family?

We hope you enjoy reflecting on this story!
