The story told in Genesis 27, where Jacob steals the blessing his father intended for Esau, is a direct continuation of the birthright purchase story. The plot line is propelled by the father's love for his firstborn -- rooted in Isaac's fondness for the meat that Esau feeds him -- and the mother's unconditional love for the younger Jacob. (pg. 28).
