Q&A Books/Genesis Truth Boosters/Genesis 33Chapter 33Genesis 334questionsQ1.How do we know if God changed Esau’s heart in Genesis 33:4? The last we heard of Esau, he was furious and planning to kill Jacob for stealing his blessing. What happened during those 20 years to bring about such a dramatic reconciliation?Q2.Why does Jacob say that seeing Esau’s face was like seeing the face of God in Genesis 33:10? That seems like a strange comparison—was Esau’s kindness really that profound?Q3.Did Jacob lie to Esau in Genesis 33:13–17 when he said he would meet him in Seir but didn’t go? Why would Jacob say one thing and then do another? Was he afraid of Esau, or is there more to the story?Q4.Why would Jacob set up an altar on land he bought from the Canaanites? Does that mean he was claiming it for himself, or was there something deeper behind this action?
