Cannibalism in the Bible: From Covenant Curse to Final Fulfillment. Cannibalism is one of the darkest images in Scripture. Far from sensationalism, the Bible uses it as a warning of covenant judgment. From the curses of Deuteronomy to the sieges of Samaria and Jerusalem, and even into prophetic and apocalyptic visions, the theme is tragically real. Tracing every occurrence shows how sin dehumanizes—and how Christ ultimately breaks the curse.

Jacob the Deceiver: Grace for the Trickster. Jacob’s story is one of the most paradoxical in Scripture. Chosen by God before birth, yet marked by deceit and scheming, Jacob embodies the tension between divine election and human frailty. His name itself, Yaʿaqov (יַעֲקֹב), means “heel-grabber” or “supplanter,” pointing to his grasping nature.

Wrestling With God: Jacob at Peniel. Few passages in Scripture are as mysterious and arresting as Jacob’s night at the Jabbok, where he wrestles until daybreak with a divine figure. The account in Genesis 32 is not merely about physical struggle but about identity, blessing, and transformation. It is a story that touches on fear, persistence, weakness, and grace—all culminating in Jacob receiving a new name: Israel.

Jacob: The Deceiver Transformed into Israel. Jacob, the younger son of Isaac and Rebekah and the twin of Esau, is one of the central figures in Genesis. His life was marked by struggle, deceit, and divine encounters. Yet despite his flaws, God chose Jacob to carry forward the covenant, renaming him Israel and making him the father of the twelve tribes.

The Abrahamic Covenant: Promise and Fulfillment The Abrahamic covenant is one of the most significant themes in Scripture. God’s promises to Abraham shape the storyline of the Old and New Testaments, forming the foundation for Israel’s identity and the hope of the nations. Yet, these promises are often misunderstood, misapplied, or even hijacked for political or prosperity purposes. To rightly grasp the Abrahamic covenant, we must examine what God actually said & how it deve

Who Is Blessed in Abraham? A Critical Exegesis of Genesis 12:1–3 and the Israel Question. In recent decades, Genesis 12:1–3 has become a theological cornerstone in many Christian circles, particularly among evangelical and Zionist movements, used to defend unwavering support for the modern nation-state of Israel. But does the text truly support this view?

Zionism: Untangling the Political from the Biblical. Zionism is often understood in modern terms as a political movement for the re-establishment and support of a Jewish homeland in the historic land of Israel. However, many modern Christians conflate political Zionism with biblical prophecy and covenant theology, leading to doctrinal confusion, misplaced loyalties, and even theological error.

What The Bible Says About Israel. When most people hear the word “Israel,” they think of a modern nation in the Middle East. But Biblical Israel is not simply a country—it is a covenant people formed by God, for God. The Scriptures present Israel not as a mere geopolitical entity, but as a theological reality that unfolds across redemptive history.

Blessing Modern Israel: Should Christians Bless the Modern State of Israel Because of Genesis 12? Many Christians have heard the claim that supporting the modern state of Israel guarantees God’s blessing, based on Genesis 12:3—“I will bless those who bless you.” But is this really what the Bible teaches? This article takes a careful look at that assumption and shows why it oversimplifies both Scripture and history.
