What two things did Jacob steal from esau?

Only one; and that was Isaac's chief blessing, which he had intended for Esau. The birthright itself was not stolen, since Esau willingly sold it to Jacob. The fact that he sold it for a bowl of food shows how little he valued it (Genesis 25:31-34). Concerning Jacob's stealing the blessing:Jacob posed as Esau in Isaac's presence (Genesis ch.27) and received the blessing that was meant for Esau. Jacob is not to blame, for the following reasons:1) The word of God had informed their mother Rebecca that Jacob the younger son would be the favored one; the one to prevail (Genesis 25:23). Acting on this, she commanded Jacob to pose as Esau and seek Isaac's blessing (27:6-10), despite his trepidation (27:11).2) By willingly having sold Jacob his birthright, Esau relinquished any claim to Isaac's chief blessing which would go to the firstborn. The fact that he later complained (27:36) doesn't change this; and he did receive a blessing of his own (27:39).3) Isaac had not been informed that Esau sold Jacob the birthright. When he was later told this, he understood why God had allowed Jacob to get the chief blessing, and he continued blessing Jacob on later occasions (ch.28), never censuring him. Moreover, God Himself gives Israel (Jacob) the title of firstborn (Exodus 4:22 with Rashi commentary).

How did Jacob obtain the blessing intended for Esau?

Rebekah, Jacob and Esau's mother, wanted Jacob to receive the blessing from Issac before Issac died. She overheard Issac telling Esau to go hunt wild game and prepare his favorite meal. Rebekah told Jacob to go out and hunt game, and prepare a meal for his father. Jacob agreed and set out to hunt. When he returned, Rebekah cooked the meal, and Jacob brought it to his father. Jacob was the eldest, so he had to cover his skin in goats fur to feel like Jacob, in the event that Issac wanted to touch him (he was blind) While bringing the meal, He convinced Issac that he was Esau by the smell of Esau's clothes that Rebekah given him, and the fur on his hands. In return for the food, Issac blessed Jacob. Esau soon returned, and Issac realized what he had done.

How did Jacob and Rebekah trick Isaac the second time?

Rivka (Rebecca) wanted Yaakov (Jacob) to receive Yitzchak's (Isaac's) blessings, because she felt that Yaakov was the more deserving son and she had heard a prophecy to that effect (Genesis ch.25). Yaakov agreed to cooperate with Rivka's plan because Esau had sold him the birthright (ibid.), making him first in line for the blessings. So Yaakov carried food in to his aged father Yitzchak (Genesis ch.27) and spoke as if he was Esau.

Who sold his birthright?

Esau, and potentially others Referencing Old Testament: Genesis Chapter 25 New Testament: Hebrews 12:14 - 17; Philippians 3:19; Romans 16:18 Esau was the eldest of twins born to the Biblical patriarch, Isaac. The younger twin was named Jacob. When Esau was faint with hunger upon return home from the field, he asked Jacob for some of the stew Jacob had prepared. Jacob offered to sell it for Esau's birthright as the elder brother. Esau basically said the birthright would not do him any good if he was dead of hunger. He " sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright." Hebrews 12:14-17 "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled: Lest there be any fornicator, or godless person, as Esau, who for one morsel of bread sold his birthright. For ye know that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears." The persons whose actions and attitudes are documented in the Old Testament are types and shadows of those to come. Question asked by God: Would you be as Esau and trade your birthright for a morsel of bread? According to John Chapter 1 and Chapter 3, and Romans 8:17, we can become the sons of God. We must be born again of the Spirit. Then we become joint heirs with Jesus Christ. Now we too have a birthright. How could we possibly trade our birthright for a morsel of bread? The Bible refers to those whose God is their belly. This is a quick answer but anyone who would choose short term bodily satisfaction over the spiritual riches of God be it for food or sex, etc.after having been born again in Christ Jesus is a potential seller of birthright. As believers in Christ Jesus, Certainly we have been given the ability to overcome sin by the word of our testimony and the blood of the lamb. If we still choose to return to sin, we give up our birthright.
