Symbol Of Pottage
Jacob
was a plain man dwelling in tents, while Esau hunted in the field. “Jacob makes Red Soup,” made of lentils,
and colored red. We do not know the kind of coloring Jacob used to obtain the
tempting shade of that fancy dish; Evidently he alone Knew the Secret. {SR1: 58.2}
“And
Jacob makes Red Soup: And Esau came from the field, and
he was Faint: And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage;
for I am faint: Therefore, was his name called ‘Edom.’ And Jacob said, Sell me
this day thy birthright. And Esau said Behold, I am at the point to die: And
what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me this
day; and he sware unto him: And he Sold his Birthright
unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and
drink, and rose up, and went his way: Thus, Esau
despised his birthright.” Gen. 25:29-34. {SR1: 58.3}
Esau
came from the field that day without any game. As he entered the house, he saw
Jacob garnishing the fancy article of food.
Immediately
Esau exclaimed: “Feed me I pray thee with that same red pottage; for I am
faint.” Esau was not faint because of great hunger, but, seeing the new article
of food, could not control his appetite. Jacob’s answer was, “Sell me this day thy Birthright,” if you must have any of this pottage. And Esau said, “Behold, I am on the
point to die: And what profit shall this birthright do to me?” Esau was not on
the point to die because of hunger or physical ailment, for a sick man cannot
eat as he did. Neither was it because of lack of food, for he was in his
father’s house, and Isaac was a rich man. It was because of his lust for the
pottage, for “He did eat and drink and rose up and went
his way.” The Symbol of
the Pottage is Health Reform. “Because of his
indifference to the divine blessings and requirements, Esau is called in
Scripture, ‘a profane person.’ He represents those who lightly value the
redemption purchased for them by CHRIST, and are ready to sacrifice their
heirship to heaven for the perishable things of Earth. Multitudes live for the
present, with no thought or care for the future. Like Esau, they cry, ‘Let us
eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.’” — Patriarchs and Prophets, page 181.
{SR1: 58.4}
“As
Esau awoke to see the folly of his rash exchange when it was too late to
recover his loss, so it will be in the day of GOD with those who have bartered
their heirship to Heaven for selfish Gratifications.” Id. page 182. We must
make our choice while we are given the freedom to select either the Pottage or the Birthright. {SR1: 59.1} Thanks my LORD JESUS & Thanks Prophet E.G.White the 3rd
