Genesis 27:34
"Isaac trembled violently, and said, “Who, then, is he who has taken venison, and brought it to me, and I have eaten of all before you came, and have blessed him? Yes, he will be blessed.”"
Key Reflection
Isaac's trembling and questioning reflect his deep-seated belief in the sanctity of the blessing process, which was disrupted by Jacob's deception. Despite his doubts, Isaac's act of blessing Jacob underscores God's sovereign will overriding human expectation and familial duty.
