Jacob is a manipulative schemer who has had to flee his family home because of the mistrust, secrecy, and manipulative deception going on. His understandably angry brother, Esau, wants to kill him and yet in His grace, God has a plan to work in Jacob’s life. However just like when God works in our lives there is not always an immediately visible change…it seems we find transformation is a process and in today’s text we find Jacob on the cusp of this process of transformation for with any transformation, there is always that first step of change and that is what we see today…God for the first time makes Himself known in a very personal way to Jacob.
