Proceeding further in the discussion over spiritual gifts, Paul compares the gift of tongues against the gift of prophecy. He contends that the gift of prophecy is more useful for the church because it is a gift which, when manifested in a gathering of the Church, all can understand. 1 Corinthians 14:13-25

Jacob's fourteen years owed to Laban are up and he's finally ready to head off on his own along with his two wives, two concubines and (at least) twelve children. After much divine provision, Jacob still insists upon living life his own way. In this week's study through Genesis, we see the stark contrast between the fruit of Jacob's provision and that of God's.

Thus far unique to Jacob, his testimony is one of reluctant surrender to God's will. Jacob (along with the rest of the figures in this passage) is always seeking to provide for himself whenever opportunity arises. In turn, what Jacob finds is that God's promises exceed the yielding of any posed opportunity. Genesis 27:1-29:26
