00:17Have you come to join the hunts, brother?
00:21Simon, a bow for Jacob.
00:23It is about time you learned how to use one, brother.
00:25You're supposed to be a council.
00:27It's not my son.
00:32You see that the killers are brought back to camp?
00:35Is father angry?
00:36He would be, had I not made excuses for you.
00:40I do not deserve you, brother.
00:45We'll be back to camp.
00:47I will confess all my transgressions.
00:49And if you win?
00:50What else is there to take?
00:53Come on.
00:55Yeah.
00:56Yeah.
00:59Come on.
01:00Come on.
01:01Winner takes all.
01:02Go.
01:03Come on.
01:03Keep up.
01:04Come on now, brother.
01:05It's an open range.
01:07You cannot claim what belongs to nature.
01:09Abraham himself blessed this land and granted us grazing rights.
01:13Your rights died.
01:14Quiet!
01:17You dare invoke my father's name?
01:21Do you think this is what he'd want?
01:24That he quarrels the mistrust?
01:26Oh, come on, brother.
01:28Is it the horse who tires or you?
01:29It's the horse.
01:30Come on.
01:31Come on.
01:32Yeah.
01:32You're too slow, Jacob.
01:34Yeah.
01:34Yeah.
01:35In the years since our communities came together, I'd hoped we'd have grown closer.
01:43But our differences seem only more pronounced.
01:46Right, you bud, brother.
01:48Come on.
01:48I was hoping for a race.
01:50Yeah.
01:51Come on.
01:52Go.
01:52Yeah.
01:54Yeah.
01:55Separately, we are weak.
01:57We leave ourselves vulnerable to those who want what we have.
02:02But as one nation, we are protected.
02:06We are stronger and richer in every way, which leaves us with a choice.
02:12Will we grow and prosper together?
02:15Be the shepherds of God's promise, or will we splinter and languish alone?
02:24Draw your borders.
02:26And if you cannot find common ground, I'll leave you both with none.
02:30Don't choose him.
02:38I win again, brother.
02:44Please, please, you must hear me.
02:47The Hittites, they've plugged up our world with sand.
02:50Our herd won't live to see the new moon.
02:52You must do something.
02:53The Hittites, they are vile, but not unreasonable.
02:57I've had plenty of dealings with them.
02:59Father, you allow me?
03:00My son's word carries the weight of my own.
03:03You'll see to it.
03:05Tell me about the hunt.
03:07That buck that eluded me the last few days.
03:09Yeah.
03:10I found a wife at Glen.
03:12We'll freeze for days.
03:15You fetched him, didn't you?
03:17It shouldn't be my responsibility to remind Esau of his.
03:20Stop protecting him.
03:22Leave him to his devices.
03:23Let him succeed or fail on his own.
03:26We know what'll happen.
03:27Then your father will know as well.
03:30What does it matter?
03:32Esau's the firstborn.
03:32His fate has decided, as is mine.
03:35It matters.
03:43It matters more each day.
03:52Esau, he's stepping into the role.
03:55We must support him, both of us.
04:00Even your father saw it.
04:03But you...
04:05You refuse.
04:06Not this again.
04:07I thought we were past this.
04:08You are past it.
04:10I'm forced to confront it at every turn.
04:15And you have no idea
04:17what it's like to look at our sons,
04:18knowing what I know.
04:19To feel responsible and helpless at the same time.
04:25Because my husband denies it.
04:29He denies the will of God.
04:32Forgive me, my love.
04:36How am I to respect your wishes when you ignore mine?
04:38Where are you going?
04:39My appetite's left for me.
04:47Help!
04:48Someone's left out!
04:50It's Esau!
04:51He's hurt!
04:51Isaac!
05:00Esau!
05:01Esau, what happened?
05:03Help!
05:07Esau, can you hear me?
05:09Who did this?
05:10The Hittites.
05:12I went to talk to them about the well.
05:13I tried to get them to listen.
05:15But that was never their intention.
05:17But they mean war.
05:18Then that's what we should give them.
05:19Isaac, no.
05:20Ready the men.
05:22Come on.
05:25As soon as I am able,
05:26we will take the fight to them.
05:33All of this is over a well.
05:35You saw what they did to him.
05:38They attacked our family.
05:39They attacked the Covenant itself.
05:55Why are we speaking alone?
05:58I must know your thoughts about what's to come.
06:01This reeks of a dispute that got out of hand.
06:03In matters of war, we have little experience.
06:06We would lose.
06:09Like your brother.
06:11More confidence than we should.
06:12It is not my place to intervene.
06:14Nor is it yours.
06:17There is something I must tell you.
06:22Something I swore to your father I never would.
06:28What is it?
06:31Jacob, when I was pregnant with you, God's point.
06:34He revealed himself.
06:36What did he say?
06:38That the Covenant is meant to pass to you.
06:42Not your brother.
06:46I don't understand.
06:48Esau is the firstborn.
06:50It's his birthright.
06:50Everyone looks to him as the heir.
06:52Because your father refuses to accept it.
06:54Because he was chosen over his brother as well.
06:57And it scarred him.
07:02But if God commands it.
07:05Your father's relationship with him is complicated.
07:10But he needs to see what I see.
07:12When I look upon you, what God sees.
07:15Then I must prove it to him.
07:17Show him.
07:19I will go to the Hittites.
07:21And secure a peace between us.
07:23You'll be risking your life.
07:26For the sake of our people.
07:29I have no other choice.
07:45Who are you?
07:48Mighty trespass on our soil.
07:51I am Jacob, son of Isaac.
07:54I extend an offer from my father to put aside our differences.
07:58Whatever wrongs exist between us, let us make them right.
08:06To broker peace.
08:09Will you allow me that?
08:17You went behind father's back, and you went behind mine.
08:20You had no right.
08:21I did what I had to, to keep this from escalating.
08:25He put his own life in jeopardy, but you, you'd risk all of us.
08:27You overstepped.
08:29Both of you.
08:30And now we look weak in the face of the adversary.
08:33Adversary?
08:34You said it yourself.
08:35They are reasonable people.
08:37I have come to the same conclusion.
08:40I wonder, was it you that lost your head?
08:42Is that what started all of it?
08:43That's enough!
08:44Esau!
08:49And Jacob, the way this was handled, I have no words.
08:57The Hittites are open to a resolution.
09:01I'm certain of it.
09:04What was the proposition?
09:06We are to welcome a delegation to join us for a feast.
09:09You invite the enemy for dinner.
09:12Food and wine often pave the road to peace.
09:15This will not end as you hope.
09:23See to the preparations.
09:26Rebecca.
09:31You put him up to this.
09:33You think I don't see him, but I see everything.
09:45I see everything.
09:58They've come in numbers.
10:00You were clear this was a negotiation?
10:03Yes.
10:04But their leader only wanted to speak to Father directly.
10:08The road to peace seems more like a river.
10:10No, they're more robust than expected.
10:14I'll extend an invitation for formal peace talks in the morning.
10:21Thank you again for coming.
10:23You're welcome here.
10:24You're all welcome.
10:25Here.
10:26Appreciate your hospitality.
10:28Please feel free to make the most.
10:30And perhaps in the morning, you and I could know enough.
10:34What is it?
10:35I'm not sure.
10:36Enough pleasantries.
10:37We've beaten here the hours.
10:39Is your son going to do the right thing or not?
10:42My son.
10:42I think there's been a misunderstanding.
10:45There's no misunderstanding.
10:48Esau defiles my daughter and sends his brother to make amends.
10:52You're a coward.
10:54He is a liar.
10:56Look at me.
10:58I want you to swear to me that this is not your doing.
11:00I've never even seen her before.
11:06You do right by her or I will finish what we started at the well.
11:14Please stop this.
11:15Please stop this.
11:46It's done.
11:47He'll marry the hit I'd go.
11:52I killed you.
11:54I am not the one who invited them here.
11:58You're without the truth.
12:00All of this happened because you cannot control yourself.
12:06Don't just stand there.
12:08Go.
12:10Apologize to your betrothed.
12:32He's hungry.
12:34His cries all sound the same.
12:35How do you know?
12:37It comes with time.
12:39You'll learn.
12:44He needs to eat, my love.
12:46So do I.
12:49Your father's unwell.
12:51You ought to take his place at council.
12:53I'd have plans to go and hunt near the river.
12:55You have different plans now.
13:09These Hittites and their idols.
13:12This is not what my grandfather would have wanted.
13:15If I so tolerates them,
13:17it's almost you.
13:21You have to listen to me.
13:23So disrespectful.
13:23It's no business of hers what happens in my tent.
13:26My children hear them.
13:28They're not even married.
13:29Enough of this nonsense.
13:32Leave.
13:38These idols are all over the camp.
13:41They don't even try to hide them anymore.
13:51The Hittites are not God-fearing people.
13:54Watch where you tread.
13:57You speak of Adar's family.
13:59And mine.
14:00This is a place of civility.
14:03Act like it, both of you.
14:04Yes, little brother.
14:06Do you know your place?
14:08That is my place.
14:12Jacob.
14:13Go on.
14:14Tell him.
14:17You shouldn't be out of bed.
14:19No, it is good that you are here.
14:22Jacob was about to invite me into a little secret
14:24that both he and mother share.
14:27He needed to know.
14:29You defied me.
14:31I said my peace and you defied me.
14:33As you defy God.
14:40Isaac.
14:42Isaac, speak to me.
14:44I can't see.
14:46I can't see.
14:50I can't see.
14:57I have seen this before.
14:59It strikes quickly and resolves slowly.
15:03If it resolves.
15:05It can render you unable to speak.
15:08Or to walk.
15:09Or to see.
15:11Yes.
15:13But he'll improve.
15:17It's possible.
15:19But you must plan as if he won't.
15:25This is our fault.
15:28He's been sick for some time.
15:32But this...
15:36This feels different.
15:39Will you pray with me?
15:49Lord, may your mercy rest upon your servant, Isaac.
15:51And restore his body and mind.
15:54May his days still be numerous.
15:57May your power and grace heal and sustain him.
16:01May his continued life bring honor and glory to your name.
16:16I'm here.
16:16I'm here, my love.
16:17I'm here.
16:18I'm here.
16:19I'm here.
16:19I'm here.
16:22Is it right?
16:23It's all right.
16:24It's morning.
16:25Oh, love.
16:26It's morning.
16:28It's all right.
16:34There's so many things I must say to you.
16:39Esau.
16:45I'll send for your son's.
16:46No, no.
16:49Esau.
16:57You can't leave me.
17:02I don't know what I would do.
17:04We cannot wait.
17:06You must receive my blessing.
17:16And the angel of God came down to Abraham a second time
17:20and said, you must leave this land.
17:27Is it the end?
17:28He believes so.
17:31He intends to bless Esau.
17:32He's asked your brother to hunt and prepare me up for him.
17:35We must get to him first.
17:38You want me to receive the blessing in Esau's stead?
17:41Without a sight, he may not know the difference.
17:43If he touches me, he will know.
17:44Let me worry about that.
17:46Has our conspiring not caused enough damage?
17:47It's his resistance that's caused it.
17:52Would you believe God spoke to me?
17:55Yes.
17:57Yes, of course.
17:58Then you must also accept his word
18:00and act before it's too late.
18:02What if I bring upon myself a curse instead of a blessing?
18:06You let me my curse.
18:10I love your father and your brother both.
18:13Do you think I'd suggest such a thing
18:14if I saw another way?
18:17Go to the flock.
18:19Let one kid roast you.
18:21Go.
18:22Hurry.
18:24Go.
18:25Go.
18:38Go.
18:39Go.
18:40Go.
18:42Go.
18:43Go.
18:44Go.
18:45Go.
18:45Go.
18:45Go.
18:48Go.
18:49Go.
18:50Go.
18:52Go.
18:54Ah!
18:55Yeah!
19:40Say as little as possible.
19:43Understand?
20:02Where's that?
20:09Esau.
20:12I've done as you asked.
20:15Bring it to me.
20:33Esau, let me eat of your game, so that I may bless you.
21:02Come nearer, my son.
21:19May God give you of the jewel of heaven.
21:25And of the fatness of the land.
21:28May people praise you.
21:31And nations bow down here.
21:38May God bless you.
21:49May God bless you.
21:51May everyone bless you.
21:54May God bless you.
22:28Father, I've returned. I've done exactly as you asked.
22:51Forgive me.
23:08Help me understand. There's but one blessing.
23:13As I was with Abraham and my father, only one can accept the covenant.
23:24Please, I beg you, do not act rashly.
23:35I know it was you.
23:43You left me no choice.
23:49If you believe that, then you too are blind.
23:57Esau is the heir.
23:59Now Jacob holds the covenant.
24:04Neither are all.
24:09You deceived me.
24:12And you condemned the Lord.
24:26Don't eat your judgment, daughter.
24:29Add my fill.
24:35Esau and I, our beginning was not ideal.
24:42But I love him as he does me.
24:46I know it to be true.
24:50But I must tell you what he's planning.
24:52Because it will only make things worse for him.
24:59Surely I can reason with him.
25:01You will go to my brother in Haran and stay with him.
25:03Until when?
25:05Until Esau's fury subsides.
25:07And if it never does?
25:08This is God's will.
25:16I love you.
25:22Go.
25:26Go.
25:51All those who seek miracles,
25:54fear not,
25:55you godless champion has arrived.
26:01You sit in my stead.
26:03Where's father?
26:04You're late and you're drunk.
26:06Ah.
26:07Well, that would explain it.
26:09Come.
26:11Learn something.
26:13Your grandfather had me in here when I was your age.
26:16Simon promised to take us on a hunt.
26:18Did he?
26:20Many wait on you, Esau.
26:22Perhaps it's best to get through this without distraction.
26:26Fine.
26:28Go.
26:35Are you getting enough rest?
26:38The new baby is, uh, spirited.
26:57You brought me back from the dead.
27:00Only you live to resent me.
27:04No.
27:06Perhaps for a while.
27:09Perhaps for a long while.
27:16I've been trapped in this old body so long.
27:20I have a time to think.
27:24I have a time to think of it.
27:26What have you arrived at?
27:33I'm as responsible as you are.
27:50Standing my ground is tearing us all apart.
27:56My beloved husband is fading away.
28:03Jacob is lost to me.
28:05In exile, I question whether my purpose is worth the cost.
28:18And Esau is weak and diminished.
28:26And this is my doing.
28:32I hate to see you like this.
28:49I do love you.
28:54I hope you know that.
29:00And I'm smart if it does.
29:12No one cares about the weight of a mother's blessing.
29:18But I give you mine nonetheless.
29:26May the burdens be lifted from you.
29:31So that you can be the man you're meant to be.
29:36For your children are wise.
29:41And yourself.
30:09Let's go.
30:10We're a messenger from the road.
30:12He says there's a caravan on the way.
30:14From where?
30:15Iran.
30:17Oh, it's Jacob.
30:18It's Jacob.
30:20Oh, he's coming home.
30:21I'm coming home.
30:29Your mother's waiting for you.
30:31She hopes to quiet your mind.
30:36You have no business being in here.
30:38This time, not here.
30:39It's broken.
30:40I have only ever stood in the way of what he wants.
30:42And now, he intends to take it by force.
30:47You don't know his intentions.
30:49And you do.
30:51Even if you did, I cannot trust you to tell me the truth.
30:57Every morning, I see you standing on that hill, waiting for him.
31:04Wishing it was him here instead of me.
31:07It's not true.
31:10I promise you it's not true.
31:16All I've ever wanted was for us to be a family.
31:18And that can never happen because of you.
31:22It is me or him, and I will not let him destroy what I have built here.
31:26Is this the life you wanted?
31:28You know nothing of what I want.
31:32He is your blood.
31:33And if his return relieves you, then...
31:37I will not welcome it.
31:40I will not welcome it.
31:41Please, please.
31:45This is not what God wants.
31:47No.
31:48No!
31:49It is not what you want!
31:51And that's all it's ever mattered!
31:53Hasn't it, Mother?
32:02Please!
32:09What is he travels in numbers?
32:11There can only be one reason.
32:13To take back what he believes is his.
32:15That he will pay for his treachery with his life.
32:41There are women and children among them.
32:45A distraction.
32:47Nothing more.
33:41What do you think he understands?
33:43He wants to
33:45It's been a long time, brother.
33:55Why are you without weapon?
33:59I'm not here to fight.
34:02I only hope to find favor in your eyes.
34:08I have dreamt of this day.
34:20Do as you must, brother.
34:23For all that I have done, it is your right.
35:10Do as you must, brother.
35:30It's good to see you, brother.
35:51They say you'll step aside?
35:53Yes.
35:58How do you feel?
36:28Where are you going?
36:35The hunter.
36:43How do you feel?
37:16I didn't think I would be here if it ever came to pass.
37:21We're to meet his family, his children.
37:27God has truly missed us this day.
37:38You'll excuse me, my love.
37:40I'll see you about tonight.
37:43It was you, wasn't it?
37:48Don't deny it.
37:49I know what you're capable of.
37:50I needn't explain myself to you.
37:52If Jacob's intentions were different, if he meant Esau harm, then you would have left my husband defenseless.
37:58What's right and what's fair do not always coincide.
38:01No.
38:02You chose one son over the other was not a choice.
38:07It's what had to be done.
38:10Well, I hope you can live with yourself.
38:13I'm not sure I could.
38:23I don't expect anyone to understand.
38:27But I've done my best to be your servant.
38:31If I've transgressed, I hope you'll forgive me.
38:36It's taken so long, cost so much, that we arrived here.
38:46Our family is reunited.
38:52You will be the one to judge me in the end.
38:56But today, today I have this, and I shall revel in it.
39:02You will be the one to judge me in the end.
39:02You will be the one to judge me in the end.
39:02You will be the one to judge me in the end.
39:04You will be the one to judge me in the end.
