What's the Most Treacherous Person in the Book of Genesis?
A son of Israel who's not treacherous. Who's the most treacherous person in the book of Genesis? A guy named Israel. Jacob, whose name gets changed in Israel because he fights with God. His name actually is a play on the word deceit at all. And so that story about Jacob, Trickster, in Genesis 28, what Jacob sees is a stairway uniting heaven and earth. Jesus replays that but makes himself the stairway. He says, you'll see the angels going up and down on me. Oh, he's the bridge. The tabernacle of God has become flesh. The word has become flesh and made a tabernacle among us.
