Publisher's summary

Beloved author Dale Ralph Davis looks at one of the most fascinating characters in the Bible, and the God who was faithful to him.

The character of Jacob that we meet in chapters 25–35 of Genesis is a fascinating one. A kaleidoscopic blend of deviousness and doggedness, of trickery and tenacity, of folly and faith. As readers we can’t help being drawn into his story. With his trademark wit and perceptive comments Dale Ralph Davis guides us through the story of this rogue and traces the evidence of grace, providence, blessing throughout his life.

Taking us chapter by chapter through this fundamental section of scripture, Davis highlights not only the character of Jacob, but the character of the God who cared for him and faithfully kept his promises to him.

Excellent commentary on Jacob's story

Dale Ralph Davis if one of the best commentators out there. His commentaries are typically not long or technical but are always engaging, thoughtful, and helpful. This commentary on the life of Jacob is no different. Davis takes us through the 10 chapters in Genesis that details Jacob’s life, along the way we learn about Jacob, God’s grace, and his sovereignty, and how this applies to us.

Jacob is a rascal, he tries to get what he wants through deceit and trickery, but along the way of his difficult life and through several encounters with God he comes out a changed man. Davis takes us along on this journey and if we are paying attention, we too can become changed people.

The reader was very good, he brought a joyful tone to the narration.

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in this story.

Disclosure: I received a free review copy of the audiobook, but I would have purchased it anyway and I am a big fan of Dale Ralph Davis and his work.
