00:00:01I failed you.
00:00:03No.
00:00:04Your bloodline ends with me.
00:00:07Previously on The Faithful.
00:00:09God spoke to me.
00:00:10Go forth, he said, from your native land and to a land that I will show you.
00:00:15He's going to give us children, Sarai.
00:00:18Abram's God did not bring you out alone to not give you a child.
00:00:22We did what you asked and nothing.
00:00:25My womb stays closed.
00:00:27Hagar, I want you to have Abram's child on my behalf.
00:00:30Your son.
00:00:32Ishmael.
00:00:35Sarai will have a son.
00:00:37I am too old.
00:00:39This is madness.
00:00:40You feel this?
00:00:41You're a child.
00:00:43His name will be Isaac.
00:00:45God will make his covenant with him.
00:00:46Ishmael is your eldest.
00:00:48It's God's will.
00:00:49I'll never bow to him.
00:00:51Never.
00:00:52Cast them by third.
00:00:54We have to protect Isaac and covenant.
00:00:56Ishmael, please, come back.
00:01:09I was chosen to lead by God.
00:01:13And detested me at every turn.
00:01:16Pitted me against my family.
00:01:18My husband.
00:01:21And my sons.
00:01:24Those that I loved.
00:01:30If it meant I had to deceive.
00:01:34That was my burden.
00:01:37And my destiny.
00:01:42I stand here now.
00:01:44With blood on my hands.
00:01:50Father, don't.
00:01:53It's sick.
00:01:54It won't survive on its own.
00:01:56Then I'll care for it.
00:01:59Rebecca.
00:01:59Please.
00:02:10I trust you.
00:02:20Yeah.
00:02:21Yeah.
00:02:23Zephyr, be nice.
00:02:25Careful.
00:02:26That one horn is like a blade for my shears.
00:02:31The storm is coming.
00:02:32You'd better tie him up.
00:02:40See you there.
00:02:41I'll come check on you.
00:03:04He'll be scared.
00:03:06That's you should be.
00:03:09Come back inside.
00:03:23I tied him right here.
00:03:24He must have broken free and run off.
00:03:29Zephyr.
00:03:31Zephyr.
00:03:32It's not fair.
00:03:33Why would the gods take him away?
00:03:37Did I do something wrong?
00:03:39No, no, no.
00:03:40Maybe, maybe he was needed elsewhere.
00:03:44I don't understand.
00:03:46We all have a purpose, love.
00:03:49One day yours will reveal itself too.
00:04:13Rebecca, keep an eye on your grandmother for a moment.
00:04:16We need some new shears.
00:04:31Mmm, he thinks I need a nursemaid.
00:04:37Look at this colour.
00:04:42It matches your eyes.
00:04:50What's the matter?
00:04:53Nothing.
00:04:54I...
00:04:55I was lost in a memory.
00:04:58Your great-aunt Sarah, she wore a veil like this on her wedding day.
00:05:03You've mentioned her before.
00:05:06Hmm.
00:05:06She's the one who left her own.
00:05:08When she was your age.
00:05:10Where did she go?
00:05:12Her husband, Abraham.
00:05:15His God promised them a new life.
00:05:19The adventures they must have had.
00:05:26I've always wondered what lies beyond the mountains of Haran.
00:05:32To leave home.
00:05:34I could never...
00:05:36I'd miss it here too much.
00:05:37Maybe it's your destiny as it was my sister Sarah's.
00:05:39And what will you miss if you stay?
00:05:43You have an audience?
00:05:46None interest you?
00:05:48No.
00:05:49I've known them all my life.
00:05:51Your father's receiving offers.
00:05:53He may ask you to choose.
00:05:55Hmm.
00:05:56I won't settle out of fear.
00:05:58No.
00:06:00Certainly not the three goats in the movie.
00:06:07I'd never forgive you if you did.
00:06:09I won't settle out of fear.
00:06:09Mm-hmm.
00:06:12All right.
00:06:12Mmm.
00:06:33Mm-hmm.

00:08:04show him my hospitality
00:08:10Eliezer
00:08:11did my sister Sarah ever have the child
00:08:13she yearned for
00:08:14she did
00:08:16in fact her son is the reason of my errand
00:08:19Abraham asked that I return to the land of his father
00:08:22and find his kin
00:08:24he said
00:08:24an angel would accompany me
00:08:27an angel
00:08:28when I arrived I prayed that
00:08:30if he made an offer to draw water for me
00:08:32and my camels
00:08:34she'd be the one I was meant to find
00:08:35for what purpose
00:08:39to take her to Canaan
00:08:41so that she might become wife to my master's son
00:08:50what do you know of their God
00:08:53I know that Abraham spoke to him
00:08:55and I believe it
00:08:56he was a changed man after that
00:09:01what are you not telling me
00:09:02I saw him
00:09:03who

00:09:10for what I don't know
00:09:14what if this is it
00:09:16if it is and I don't go
00:09:17I'll regret it
00:09:19but if it's not
00:09:21and I do
00:09:22I'll regret that too
00:09:23what does your heart tell you

00:10:33of their enemies
00:10:35I don't know my purpose
00:10:35I don't know my purpose
00:10:45I don't know my purpose
00:10:46I don't know my purpose
00:10:47I don't know my purpose
00:10:48I don't know my purpose
00:10:49I don't know my purpose
00:10:50I don't know my purpose
00:10:50I don't know my purpose
00:10:52I don't know my purpose
00:10:53I don't know my purpose
00:10:53I don't know my purpose

00:10:54I don't know my purpose
00:10:54I don't know my purpose
00:10:54I don't know my purpose
00:10:56I don't know my purpose
00:10:58I don't know my purpose
00:11:01I don't know my purpose
00:11:07Debra, I so appreciate you coming.
00:11:10It would be nice to have a face from home beside me.
00:11:13Not since the day you were born have I left your side.
00:11:19I may need to lean on you.
00:11:23As I adjust to this new...
00:11:26Everything.
00:11:28You'll have your husband to lean on as well.
00:11:34It's a good name.
00:11:36Isaac needs laughter.
00:11:39He could be funny.
00:11:42Funny looking.
00:11:43He did.
00:11:45He could be funny.
00:11:46He could be funny.
00:12:03He scored.
00:12:10Good, Mic.
00:12:11Yeah.wościока
00:12:13This is your betrothed, Isaac, son of Abraham.
00:12:23Come, I'll announce you.
00:12:33Who's this?
00:12:35Your father sent me to Haran to find a wife.
00:12:39A wife?
00:12:40I assumed he sent word.
00:12:42No, he didn't.
00:12:44This is exactly like him.
00:12:45He's meddling again when he thinks I want himself.
00:12:49Sorry.
00:12:50Forgive me.
00:12:51I don't know who you are or what you've been told, but you've been misled.
00:12:55Could you arrange travel back to...
00:12:58wherever she came from?
00:13:01It's nearly night.
00:13:04Fine. In the morning, then.
00:13:17Did you see the look on his face?
00:13:19As though he was the one inconvenienced.
00:13:21I did.
00:13:23Now I'm to return home with a stain of rejection.
00:13:30No one will believe what really transpired.
00:13:33What was I thinking coming here?
00:13:35Excuse me.
00:13:36Sorry, I didn't get your name.
00:13:42And now he invades my privacy.
00:13:44What do you want?
00:13:46I've waited for your travel.
00:13:48Spit it out, then.
00:13:51Well, there's been a delay.
00:13:54A delay?
00:13:56Where's Eliezer?
00:13:57Why does he not return us to Haran?
00:14:01Uh, he left.
00:14:03Left?
00:14:04Yes, this morning, at first light, he went to Beersheba, my father's household.
00:14:10How long will it take, then?
00:14:13Several days, maybe more.
00:14:15Of course.
00:14:16Why stem the embarrassment?
00:14:17We can linger in it a little longer.
00:14:19Uh, it was never my intention to offend.
00:14:23I just, uh, I wasn't expecting you.
00:14:27You have my apologies.
00:14:29I don't need your pity.
00:14:31The indignity itself is enough, thank you.
00:14:34My anger wasn't directed at you.
00:14:36My father.
00:14:41He was doing what was best for you.
00:14:43I assure you, he has no idea what that would mean.
00:14:47Are you hungry?
00:14:49I have food, I could...
00:14:50It's unusual you live so far from him.
00:14:52You're estranged, I take it.
00:14:54Which of you offended the other?
00:14:56Given my recent experience, I have a guess as to the culprit.
00:14:59You're speaking of things you know nothing about.
00:15:01Your father is a respected and righteous man.
00:15:03What could he possibly have done?
00:15:04He held a knife to my throat, and he was going to kill me.
00:15:11Uh, forgive me.
00:15:14It's not your burden.
00:15:19How can it be true?
00:15:20I, your grandmother's own account, Abraham is the finest of me.
00:15:24He's no reason to lie.
00:15:25Not about something like that.
00:15:45I accept.
00:15:47You accept.
00:15:49It's clear I've landed in the midst of whatever war rages between you and your father.
00:15:53Perhaps it was unfair of me to blame you.
00:15:56So I accept your apology.
00:16:01Well, it seems I needn't have bothered then.
00:16:04With what?
00:16:08It's, it's a, bauble, really.
00:16:12But it's a, a peace offering.
00:16:24Oh, you.
00:16:36It's beautiful.
00:16:38I find threading the beads strangely calming.
00:16:43I think that's something I love for my father.
00:16:48Glad to know things between you weren't all bad.
00:16:54Well, thank you again.
00:16:56Pleasure.
00:17:10The beast was twice the size of any man.
00:17:12With its eyes gouged out.
00:17:15But it didn't need its eyes to bite.
00:17:17It could use its nose.
00:17:20And its ear.
00:17:23And its...
00:17:32And you, you were the most scared.
00:17:34Out of everyone.
00:17:36They say our escort arrives tomorrow.
00:17:44So we'll be home soon.
00:17:47If that's what you want.
00:18:16Don't sleep over.
00:18:21When I was little, I used to try and count them.
00:18:29May I ask you a question?
00:18:32Of course.
00:18:34Were you unhappy in Iran?
00:18:37No.
00:18:38Why leave your home to marry...
00:18:41the man you'd never met?
00:18:44I thought my purpose was elsewhere.
00:18:47As ridiculous as that now sounds.
00:18:49I don't think it's ridiculous.
00:18:57All the stars in the sky...
00:19:01So shall my descendants be...
00:19:04too numerous to count.
00:19:06God himself promised so.
00:19:09You promised who?
00:19:10Well, not me.
00:19:12God doesn't speak to me.
00:19:14Only my father.
00:19:17I'm sorry.
00:19:21I was the test.
00:19:25My father's God commanded him to make a sacrifice.
00:19:29A burnt offering.
00:19:33So he and I traveled for three days to Mount Moriah.
00:19:38And it didn't occur to me to ask,
00:19:40until we were halfway up,
00:19:43where the lamb was.
00:19:46He said, don't worry.
00:19:50We reached the highest point.
00:19:51He built a pyre of wood.
00:19:54And then he turned to me.
00:19:57I've never seen her look like it.
00:20:00It was so much...
00:20:03sorrow.
00:20:08That's when I realized...
00:20:10that...
00:20:12I was the sacrifice.
00:20:15The way he looked at me.
00:20:19He was prepared to do it.
00:20:20To kill me.
00:20:22Who could do such a thing?
00:20:24My father could.
00:20:27He believed God gave him a son.
00:20:28And if God wanted the son back,
00:20:31then...
00:20:32it was not his to withhold.
00:20:35I don't know how I can love him and...
00:20:37hate him in...
00:20:39You're stronger than you know, Isaac.
00:20:42To understand why he did it.
00:20:44And the fear.
00:20:45He must have felt.
00:20:49Not everyone can do that.
00:20:52I sometimes dream about the ram.
00:20:55That was the sacrifice in my place.
00:20:58It seemed so calm.
00:21:01As if it was...
00:21:03exactly where it was supposed to be.
00:21:09What was most striking about it, though, was its eyes.
00:21:13One blue.
00:21:14One brown.
00:21:16Alongside an unusual shaped horn.
00:21:19I thought...
00:21:19your father brought no...
00:21:21no offering.
00:21:22It's as if it appeared from nowhere.
00:21:24Like it dropped out of the sky.
00:21:26Which was...
00:21:27that was so strange that day.
00:21:30The clouds were...
00:21:32roiling in a way I've never seen before.
00:21:34Or since.
00:21:37How long ago did all of this happen?
00:21:40Many years.
00:21:44Why do you ask?
00:21:49It's nothing.
00:21:50I just...
00:21:52When I was a girl, I raised a lamb.
00:21:55He had one brue eye and one brown.
00:21:58Alongside an unusual shaped horn.
00:22:01And one night he disappeared in a storm.
00:22:04Just like the one you described.
00:22:08Could you wait here a moment?
00:22:16My father gave me this when I came of age.
00:22:19So...
00:22:20I would remember that day.
00:22:32Is that her?
00:22:36My lamb.
00:22:39Are you certain?
00:22:41Yes.
00:22:46I don't know what this means.
00:22:49That I don't have to keep looking anymore.
00:22:55My purpose...
00:22:56is here.
00:22:59You'll stay.
00:23:02And be my wife.
00:23:32Isaac should know the truth.
00:23:35I don't want to worry.
00:23:38I have never seen a child toss and turn like this.
00:23:43Something's distressing him.
00:23:45What if the midwife missed something?
00:23:47Or it's beyond her understanding.
00:23:49Only God may know.
00:23:51Then I'll inquire it in myself.
00:24:00Tell me why my womb fights with itself.
00:24:07What troubles my unborn child?
00:24:12What is his fate?
00:24:17I beg you, my lord.
00:24:32I beg you, my lord.
00:24:35Rebecca.
00:24:50Two for you today.
00:24:53Seems like a storm's coming.
00:25:05Rebecca?
00:25:07Rebecca?
00:25:26Rebecca?
00:25:30Rebecca?
00:25:37Rebecca?
00:25:45Rebecca?
00:25:46Rebecca?
00:25:48Rebecca?
00:25:49Are you all right?
00:25:50Are you all right?
00:25:51You're not hurt.
00:25:51I'm fine.
00:25:52I'm fine.
00:25:53I'm fine.
00:25:57Isaac.
00:25:58Isaac.
00:25:59He spoke to me.
00:26:02He spoke to me.
00:26:04Come on.
00:26:06Come on.
00:26:11I asked him to bless our son,
00:26:14and to ensure his good health,
00:26:15and I never thought he'd answer.
00:26:22I'm not unwell, my love.
00:26:25I did hear him.
00:26:27I swear it.
00:26:28I still feel his words in my bones.
00:26:31My father's gone.
00:26:32Yes.
00:26:36What did he say?
00:26:39That we're to have two sons.
00:26:43Twins?
00:26:46A blessing, to be sure,
00:26:47and the reason it's not been easy.
00:26:50They strive against one another.
00:26:53He also said that one would be stronger,
00:26:57and that the elder would serve the younger.
00:27:03As the younger would be her.
00:27:07As with you and Ishmael.
00:27:13Right.
00:27:17There are two.
00:27:19Just as you thought.
00:27:21They both strive to be first.
00:27:24Forgive me, mistress.
00:27:25I must settle the question of which it'll be,
00:27:27or we risk harming all of you.
00:27:31It is time.
00:27:46My brother.
00:27:51I will get his right to my tooth, brother.
00:27:53No!
00:27:54You're going to get your right to my tooth, brother.
00:27:55No!
00:27:56No!
00:27:57No!
00:28:06The second one announces himself.
00:28:08Hush, mistress.
00:28:27He'll need extra attention, this one.
00:28:44Oh.
00:28:47Hello.
00:28:50Hello.
00:28:57Look at his head.
00:29:02Esau.
00:29:04Surely his name has to be Esau.
00:29:11Which is firstborn?
00:29:13The one you hold.
00:29:22In this shall be Jacob, my little lamb.
00:29:32Look, look, look, look, look, look, look.
00:29:34You are so, so strong.
00:29:36Look at you.
00:29:37Look at you.
00:29:39You want to be a hunter like no other?
00:29:41I know.
00:29:43I'll take Jacob for you.
00:29:47There we are.
00:29:49You mean a lamb?
00:29:50It's all right.
00:29:53It's all right.
00:29:59There's something we've not discussed in some time.
00:30:03What's that, my love?
00:30:04Something we need to revisit.
00:30:06What awaits them is God's divine.
00:30:11Oh, no.
00:30:12We don't need to talk about that now.
00:30:14Then when?
00:30:25Elie is it?
00:30:29What's all this?
00:30:30What's this?
00:30:30An offering from your father.
00:30:32He follows behind.
00:30:33Abraham is coming.
00:30:35To celebrate the birth of his grandsons.
00:30:37We are to ready a feast for the occasion.
00:30:39He's here but a few days.
00:30:40Of course we are.
00:30:42Do not worry, my love.
00:30:43I will be with you every step of the way.
00:30:46But for now, there is much to do.
00:30:52The matter now, we're just going to start here.
00:30:55I ask that we keep it to ourselves.
00:30:58You don't want your father to know?
00:31:01No.
00:31:02All the boys.
00:31:04Just let them grow up and become who they're meant to be.
00:31:07And then we'll revisit.
00:31:33I have seen brothers strive, but not before they had names.
00:31:37So it must have been difficult on you.
00:31:41Worth every moment.
00:31:44His spirit is strong.
00:31:47You wouldn't think they're the same age.
00:31:51Esau's firstborn.
00:31:53Yes, I can tell.
00:31:55It's good you have broad shoulders, child.
00:31:57Great weight when we are in the living time.
00:32:02And this one.
00:32:04Jacob's clever, you can tell.
00:32:07Always thinking.
00:32:09He's best to be for great things, I think.
00:32:12Time won't tell.
00:32:16The angel of God blesses them both.
00:32:27It'll allow you to pull the water to the surface in half the time.
00:32:32Jacob may be the brightest among us.
00:32:34And if your hand slips...
00:32:38You spent more time with him, you'd see for yourself.
00:32:41It'll catch on this latch.
00:32:43You're here.
00:32:44You think I don't see him?
00:32:46I think you're easily distracted.
00:33:01Brother!
00:33:03We shall feast on your favourite stew tonight.
00:33:05Make sure to draw enough for every pod in camp.
00:33:12I see him.
00:33:13Mm-hmm.
00:33:14He is Optimus.
00:33:33Is that all that's left?
00:33:35Have you not eaten?
00:33:37Kills do not cut themselves.
00:33:39I've been at it since returning from the hunt.
00:33:41Shame.
00:33:41Shame.
00:33:42It's quite good.
00:33:44Give it to me.
00:33:45You're not the only one who's hungry.
00:33:47You wouldn't have any if it weren't for me.
00:33:51Buy it from me.
00:33:53Don't be a child.
00:33:58What do you want for it?
00:34:01Sell me your birthright.
00:34:05Have you been drinking father's wine?
00:34:07I don't know.
00:34:10I don't know.
00:34:11Fine.
00:34:12I don't want it anyway.
00:34:14The stew were your birthright.
00:34:34Boys being boys.
00:34:35You deceive yourself.
00:34:37You refuse to see what's right in front of you.
00:34:39And you refuse to listen.
00:34:42Rebecca, I will not revisit this conversation.
00:34:44Esau is the firstborn.
00:34:45By choice of the midwives delivering him, nothing more.
00:34:49You favor Jacob, fine.
00:34:51But you cannot usurp what is Esau's by birthright.
00:34:54So says the secondborn heir.
00:34:57Ishmael is your elder by years.
00:34:59Esau by only moments.
00:35:01And yet somehow, God's will has bearing in one instance and not the other.
00:35:06God's will.
00:35:09Is that what this is about?
00:35:11Because he spoke to me, not you.
00:35:15Be careful.
00:35:18Believe me.
00:35:20My love, I'd much rather he'd spoken to you.
00:35:24Every day I'm forced to look at our boys knowing God values one more than the other.
00:35:28Do you think I want this?
00:35:29It is a burden, and one I desperately wish I wasn't alone and carrying.
00:35:34I love Esau, dearly.
00:35:38He provides like no other, but he is reckless.
00:35:42Do you know that two nights ago I saw a servant leave his tent, barely dressed?
00:35:49He will get himself in trouble in short order.
00:35:52Do you make all these leaps to support your argument?
00:35:55No, Isaac.
00:35:56Esau's headstrong and decisive.
00:35:59We mustn't mistake confidence for competence.
00:36:03The future of your nation is at stake.
00:36:06How do I make you understand?
00:36:08All right?
00:36:08I've lived this.
00:36:09I've lived the result.
00:36:14If we go against the natural order of things, we will lose them both.
00:36:19Please, swear to me.
00:36:22Swear to me.
00:36:23You will never mention this to either of them.
00:36:26You said there would come a time.
00:36:29Perpétal!
00:36:31Forgive me.
00:36:32I've come with word.
00:36:34What is it?
00:36:34What is it?
00:36:35Your father.
00:36:36There's no more time.
00:36:37He's dying.
00:36:49A great man lies dying.
00:36:53Would that he will give me the courage.
00:36:56The courage to follow God's will.
00:37:07Welcome.
00:37:09He is weak.
00:37:11But he will be gladdened to see you.
00:37:21What happens next?
00:37:24The blessing carries the weight of your grandfather's covenant with God.
00:37:27They are not merely words.
00:37:30You understand?
00:37:37I never understood.
00:37:42In truth, neither did I.
00:37:46But I loved you so.
00:37:49I'm proud of you and the man you've become.
00:38:03Isaac, unite your households.
00:38:12Look after my people.
00:38:18As if they were your own.
00:38:20I shall.
00:38:22Son.
00:38:30May your descendants be as numerous as the stars and sand.
00:38:35All the nations of the earth shall be blessed by them.
00:38:42When you obey his command, my covenant with God passes to you.
00:38:48Amen.
00:38:50응.
00:39:05Lord, I'll ever repent you so closely.
00:39:08I have likened it.
00:39:08What a lot of years is waiting there.
00:39:10Table.cialights.
00:39:50God bless and keep you forever.
00:40:04Fear and doubt plague Esau.
00:40:07God has told me.
00:40:12It is Jacob who must lead nations.
00:40:17You must see it hard.
00:40:47Have you come to join the Huns, brother?
00:40:50Simon, a bow for Jacob.
00:40:53It is about time you learned how to use one, brother.
00:40:55You're supposed to be a council.
00:40:57It is not my son.
00:41:02See that the killers are brought back to camp?
00:41:05Is father angry?
00:41:07He would be, had I not made excuses for you.
00:41:10I do not deserve you, brother.
00:41:15Meet me back to camp.
00:41:17I will confess all my transgressions.
00:41:20And if you win?
00:41:21What else is there to take?
00:41:24Hey!
00:41:26Yeah!
00:41:27Yeah!
00:41:32When it takes all, let's go!
00:41:34Come on!
00:41:34Keep up!
00:41:36Come on now, brother!
00:41:37It's an open range.
00:41:38You cannot claim what belongs to nature.
00:41:41Abraham himself blessed this land.
00:41:43And granted us grazing rights.
00:41:45Your rights died.
00:41:46Quiet!
00:41:49You dare invoke my father's name?
00:41:53Do you think this is what he'd want?
00:41:56The petty quarrels, the mistrust?
00:41:59Oh, come on, brother.
00:42:00Is it the horse who tires or you?
00:42:02It's the horse.
00:42:03Come on!
00:42:04Come on!
00:42:05Yeah!
00:42:05You're too slow, Jacob.
00:42:07Yeah!
00:42:07Yeah!
00:42:08In the years since our communities came together,
00:42:12I'd hoped we'd have grown closer.
00:42:16But our differences seem only more pronounced.
00:42:20Try and keep up, brother.
00:42:21Come on!
00:42:22I was voting for a race.
00:42:24Yeah!
00:42:25Come on!
00:42:25Go!
00:42:26Yeah!
00:42:28Yeah!
00:42:29Separately, we are weak.
00:42:31We leave ourselves vulnerable to those who want what we have.
00:42:37But as one nation, we are protected.
00:42:41We are stronger and richer in every way.
00:42:44Which leaves us with a choice.
00:42:47Will we grow and prosper together?
00:42:50Be the shepherds of God's promise,
00:42:52or will we splinter and languish alone?
00:42:59Draw your waters.
00:43:01And if you cannot find common ground,
00:43:03I'll leave you both with none.
00:43:07Don't choose.
00:43:21Please, please, you must hear me.
00:43:23The Hittites, they plugged up our world with sand.
00:43:26Our herd won't live to see the new moon.
00:43:28You must do something.
00:43:30The Hittites, they are vile, but not unreasonable.
00:43:34I have had plenty of dealings with them.
00:43:36Father, will you allow me?
00:43:38My son's word carries the weight of my own.
00:43:41He'll see to it.
00:43:43Tell me about the hunt.
00:43:45That buck that eluded me the last few days.
00:43:47Yes.
00:43:48I fell in by the glen.
00:43:50We'll feast for game as well.
00:43:52You fetched him, didn't you?
00:43:55It shouldn't be my responsibility to remind Esau of his.
00:43:58Stop protecting him.
00:44:00Leave him to his devices.
00:44:02Let him succeed or fail on his own.
00:44:05We know what will happen.
00:44:06Then your father will know as well.
00:44:09What is it, Raptor?
00:44:10Esau's the firstborn.
00:44:11His fate has decided, as is mine.
00:44:14It matters.
00:44:22It matters more each day.
00:44:33Esau.
00:44:33He's stepping into the role.
00:44:36We must support him.
00:44:37Both of us.
00:44:41Even your father saw it.
00:44:44But you...
00:44:46You refuse.
00:44:47Not this again.
00:44:48I thought we were past this.
00:44:49You are past it.
00:44:51I'm forced to confront it at every turn.
00:44:56You have no idea
00:44:58what it's like to look at our sons,
00:45:00knowing what I know.
00:45:01To feel responsible and helpless at the same time.
00:45:07Because my husband denies it.
00:45:11He denies the will of God.
00:45:15Forgive me, my love.
00:45:18How am I to respect your wishes
00:45:20when you ignore mine?
00:45:21Where are you going?
00:45:22My appetite's left me.
00:45:30Help!
00:45:32Someone's left, help!
00:45:33It's Enzo!
00:45:34He's hard!
00:45:35Isaac.
00:45:36Isaac.
00:45:38Isaac.
00:45:38Isaac.
00:45:40Isaac.
00:45:42No.
00:45:44He's off.
00:45:45He's off.
00:45:46So what happened?
00:45:47Help!
00:45:51Isaac.
00:45:52Can you hear me?
00:45:53Who did this?
00:45:54The hit dines.
00:45:56I went to talk to them about the well.
00:45:58I tried to get them to listen.
00:45:59But that was never their intention.
00:46:02But they mean war.
00:46:03Then that's what we should give them.
00:46:04Isaac, no.
00:46:05Ready the men.
00:46:07Come on.
00:46:10As soon as I am able,
00:46:11we will take the fight to them.
00:46:16Ah.
00:46:19All of the souls are well.
00:46:21You saw what they did to him.
00:46:23They attacked our family.
00:46:25They attacked the Covenant itself.
00:46:40Why are we speaking alone?
00:46:43I must know your thoughts about what's to come.
00:46:46This reeks of a dispute that got out of hand.
00:46:49In matters of war, we have little experience.
00:46:52We would lose.
00:46:55We'd like your brother
00:46:56more confidence than we should.
00:46:59It is not my place to intervene.
00:47:00Nor is it yours.
00:47:03There is something I must tell you.
00:47:09Something I swore to your father I never would.
00:47:15What is it?
00:47:18Jacob, I was pregnant with you.
00:47:20God spoke to me.
00:47:21He revealed himself.
00:47:24What did he say?
00:47:26That the Covenant is meant to pass to you.
00:47:30Not your brother.
00:47:34I don't understand.
00:47:36Esau is the firstborn.
00:47:38It's his birthright.
00:47:39Everyone looks to him as the heir.
00:47:40Because your father refuses to accept it.
00:47:42He was chosen over his brother as well.
00:47:46And it's scarred him.
00:47:51But if God commands it.
00:47:53Your father's relationship with him is complicated.
00:47:59But he needs to see what I see when I look upon you, what God sees.
00:48:04Then I must prove it to him.
00:48:07Show him.
00:48:09I will go to the Hittites and secure a peace between us.
00:48:12Will you be risking your life?
00:48:16For the sake of our people.
00:48:19I have no other choice.
00:48:36Who are you?
00:48:39Mighty trespass on our soil.
00:48:42I am Jacob, son of Isaac.
00:48:45I extend an offer from my father to put aside our differences.
00:48:50Whatever wrongs exist between us, let us make them right.
00:48:58To broker peace.
00:49:01Will you allow me that?
00:49:09You went behind father's back and you went behind mine.
00:49:13You had no rights.
00:49:14I did what I had to, to keep this from escalating.
00:49:17He put his own life in jeopardy, but you, you'd risk all of us.
00:49:20You overstepped.
00:49:22Both of you.
00:49:23And now we look weak in the face of the adversary.
00:49:26Adversary?
00:49:27You said it yourself.
00:49:28They are reasonable people.
00:49:31I have come to the same conclusion.
00:49:34I wonder, was it you that lost your head?
00:49:35Is that what started all of it?
00:49:36That's enough!
00:49:38Esau!
00:49:43And Jacob.
00:49:46The way this was handled.
00:49:50I have no words.
00:49:52The Hittites are open to a resolution.
00:49:55I'm certain of it.
00:49:59What was the proposition?
00:50:01We are to welcome a delegation to join us for a feast.
00:50:04You invite the enemy for dinner.
00:50:07Food and wine often pave the road to peace.
00:50:10This will not end as you hope.
00:50:18See to the preparations.
00:50:22Rebecca.
00:50:27You put him up to this.
00:50:29You think I don't see him, but I see everything.
00:50:33I see everything.
00:50:35I see everything.
00:50:38I see everything.
00:50:55They've come in numbers.
00:50:58You were clear this was a negotiation?
00:51:00Yes.
00:51:02But their leader only wanted to speak to Father directly.
00:51:06The road to peace seems more like a river.
00:51:08No, they're more robust than expected.
00:51:13I'll extend an invitation for formal peace talks in the morning.
00:51:20Thank you again for coming.
00:51:21You're welcome here.
00:51:23You're all welcome.
00:51:24Here.
00:51:25Appreciate your hospitality.
00:51:27Please feel free to make the best of them.
00:51:29And perhaps in the morning, you and I could know enough.
00:51:33What is it?
00:51:34I'm not sure.
00:51:35Enough pleasantries.
00:51:36Repeat me for hours.
00:51:39Is your son going to do the right thing or not?
00:51:41My son.
00:51:42I think there's been a misunderstanding.
00:51:45There's no misunderstanding.
00:51:48Esau defiles my daughter and sends his brother to make amends.
00:51:53You're a coward.
00:51:54He is a liar.
00:51:57Look at me.
00:51:58I want you to swear to me that this is not your doing.
00:52:01I've never even seen her before.
00:52:04Oh.
00:52:07You do right, Violet, or I will finish what we started at the well.
00:52:15Stop this.
00:52:16Please stop this.
00:52:18I'll win.
00:52:20Oh.
00:52:21Oh.
00:52:23Oh.
00:52:24Oh.
00:52:26Oh.
00:52:28Oh.
00:52:32Oh.
00:52:40Oh.
00:52:48It's done. They'll marry the Hittite girl.
00:52:54They could have killed you.
00:52:56I am not the one who invited them here.
00:53:00You're without the truth.
00:53:02All of this happened because you cannot control yourself.
00:53:09Don't just stand there.
00:53:11Go. Apologize to your betrothed.
00:53:35He's hungry.
00:53:38His cries all sound the same. How do you know?
00:53:41It comes with time. He'll learn.
00:53:49He needs to eat, my love.
00:53:51Oh, so do I.
00:53:54Your father's unwell. You ought to take his place at council.
00:53:58I'd have plans to go and hunt near the river.
00:54:00You have different plans now.
00:54:15These Hittites and their idols.
00:54:17This is not what my grandfather would have wanted.
00:54:21If Iso tolerates them,
00:54:23it's almost you.
00:54:28You have to listen to me.
00:54:29So disrespectful.
00:54:29It's no business of hers what happens in my tent.
00:54:33My children hear them.
00:54:34They're not even married.
00:54:36Enough of this nonsense.
00:54:39Leave.
00:54:45These idols are all over the camp.
00:54:48They don't even try to hide them anymore.
00:54:59The Hittites are not God-fearing people.
00:55:03Watch where you tread.
00:55:05You speak of Adar's family and mine.
00:55:09This is a place of civility.
00:55:11Act like it, both of you.
00:55:12Yes, little brother.
00:55:14Do you know your place?
00:55:17That is my place.
00:55:21Jacob.
00:55:22Go on.
00:55:23Tell him.
00:55:26You shouldn't be out of bed.
00:55:29No, it is good that you are here.
00:55:31Jacob was about to invite me into a little secret
00:55:34that both he and Mother share.
00:55:36He needed to know.
00:55:38You defied me.
00:55:41I said my piece and you defied me.
00:55:43As you defy God.
00:55:45God.
00:55:50Isaac.
00:55:52Isaac.
00:55:53Isaac, speak to me.
00:55:55I can't see.
00:55:57I can't see.
00:56:01I can't see.
00:56:08I have seen this before.
00:56:10It strikes quickly and resolves slowly.
00:56:14If it resolves,
00:56:16it can render you unable to speak
00:56:19or to walk.
00:56:21Or to see.
00:56:23Yes.
00:56:25But he'll improve.
00:56:29It's possible.
00:56:31But you must plan as if you won't.
00:56:38This is our fault.
00:56:41He has been sick for some time.
00:56:45But this.
00:56:49This feels different.
00:56:52Will you pray with me?
00:57:02Lord, may our mercy rest upon your servant, Isaac.
00:57:05And restore his body and mind.
00:57:08May his days still be numerous.
00:57:11May your power and grace heal and sustain him.
00:57:16May his continued life bring honor and glory to your name.
00:57:28I'm here.
00:57:29I'm here, my love.
00:57:30I'm here.
00:57:31I'm here.
00:57:32I know.
00:57:32I'm here.
00:57:35He's in mind.
00:57:36It's all right.
00:57:37It's morning.
00:57:39Oh, no.
00:57:39It's morning.
00:57:41It's all right.
00:57:48There's so many things I must say to you.
00:57:53Eso.
00:57:59I'll send for your son.
00:58:00No, no.
00:58:04Eso.
00:58:12You can't leave me.
00:58:17I don't know what I would do.
00:58:19We cannot wait.
00:58:22You must receive the blessing.
00:58:31And the angel of God came down to Abraham a second time and said, you must leave this land.
00:58:43Is it the end?
00:58:45He believes so.
00:58:47He intends to bless Esau.
00:58:49He's asked your brother to hunt and repair me of womb.
00:58:52We must get to him first.
00:58:55You want me to receive the blessing in Esau's stead?
00:58:58Without a sight, he may not know the difference.
00:59:00If he touches me, he will know.
00:59:01Let me worry about that.
00:59:02Has our conspiring not caused enough damage?
00:59:05It's his resistance that's caused it.
00:59:09Do you believe God's birth to me?
00:59:13Yes.
00:59:14Yes, of course.
00:59:16Then you must also accept his word and think before it's too late.
00:59:20What if I bring upon myself a curse instead of a blessing?
00:59:24You let it be my curse.
00:59:29I love your father and your mother both.
00:59:31You think I'd suggest such a thing if I saw another way?
00:59:36Go to the flock.
00:59:37Fetch one kid for us to you.
00:59:39No.
00:59:41Hurry.
01:00:09Go to the flock.
01:00:10No.
01:00:10No.
01:00:13No.
01:00:28No.
01:00:29No.
01:00:30No.
01:00:30No.
01:00:37No.
01:00:37Lily!
01:00:39Lily!
01:00:41Lily!
01:00:44Lily!
01:01:01Say as little as possible.
01:01:05I understand.
01:01:25Who's that?
01:01:33Esau.
01:01:36I've done as you asked.
01:01:39Bring him to me.
01:01:55Esau.
01:01:59Let me eat to your game, so that I may bless you.
01:02:30Come here, my son.
01:02:32Come here, my son.
01:02:33Come here.
01:02:33Come here, my son.
01:02:47May God give you of the Jew of heaven and of the fatness of the land.
01:02:56May people praise you and nations bow down to you.
01:03:03May God bless you and nations bow down to you.
01:03:07May God bless you and nations bow down to you.
01:03:21May everyone bless you and nations bow down to you.
01:03:27I don't know.
01:03:59Father, every time I've done exactly as you asked.
01:04:14Father, every time I've done exactly as you asked.
01:04:41Father, every time I've done exactly as you asked.
01:04:42Help me understand.
01:04:43There's but one blessing?
01:04:47As it was with Abraham and my father,
01:04:51only one can accept the covenant.
01:04:58Please, I beg you, do not act rashly.
01:05:09I know it was you.
01:05:18You left me no choice.
01:05:24If you believe as I've been, then you too are blind.
01:05:32Esau is the heir.
01:05:35Now Jacob holds the covenant.
01:05:40Neither are home.
01:05:45You deceived me.
01:05:49And you condemned the Lord.
01:06:03Don't need your judgment, daughter.
01:06:06Add my fill.
01:06:13Esau and I, our beginning was not ideal.
01:06:20But I love him as he does me.
01:06:24I know it to be true.
01:06:28And I must tell you what he's planning.
01:06:31Because it will only make things worse for him.
01:06:38And surely I can reason with him.
01:06:40You will go to my brother in Haran and stay with him.
01:06:42Until when?
01:06:44Until Esau's fury subsides.
01:06:46And if it never does?
01:06:48This is God's will.
01:06:55I love him.
01:07:01Go.
01:07:06Go.
01:07:07Go.
01:07:32All those who seek miracles, fear not, you godless champion, has arrived.
01:07:42You sit in my stead. Where's father?
01:07:45You're late, and you're drunk.
01:07:47Ah, well, that would explain it. Come, learn something. Your grandfather had me in here
01:07:56when I was your age. Simon promised to take us on a hunt. Did he? Many wait on you, Esau.
01:08:04Perhaps it's best to get through this without distraction. Fine. Go.
01:08:18Are you getting no rest?
01:08:20The new baby is, uh, spirited.
01:08:41You brought me back from the dead.
01:08:43Hmm. For me, you live to resent me.
01:08:48No. Perhaps for a while. Hmm. Perhaps for a long while.
01:08:56Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.
01:09:01I've been trapped in this old body so long.
01:09:04Have a time to think.
01:09:09And?
01:09:12What have you arrived at?
01:09:19I'm as responsible as you are.
01:09:27Hmm.
01:09:37Standing my ground is tearing us all apart.
01:09:43My beloved husband is fading away.
01:09:50Jacob is lost to me in exile.
01:09:59I question whether my purpose is worth the cost.
01:10:06And Esau is weak and diminished.
01:10:15And this is my doing.
01:10:21I hate to see you like this.
01:10:39I do love you.
01:10:44I hope you know that.
01:10:50I'm smart if you does.
01:11:03No one cares about the weight of a mother's blessing.
01:11:08But I give you mine nonetheless.
01:11:17May the burdens be lifted from you.
01:11:22So that you can be the man you're meant to be.
01:11:28For your children, your wives.
01:11:32For your child's forgiveness.
01:11:35For your child.
01:11:35For your children.
01:11:57For your child.
