Rebecca - a woman of great integrity or a conniving and liar?
Reflecting on the character of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau, in the context of the story of Esau and Jacob from the Bible. The article discusses the importance of avoiding favoritism and treating children equally in family dynamics, promoting good communication, and remaining true to the principles of Scripture. It also emphasizes living life seriously and according to the values of the Kingdom of God, surrendering to the Lord, and recognizing the great things He has in store for us.
