JACOB AND ESAU,
Twin brothers were they,
But each was different,
And went his separate way.
Jacob the younger represents
Men of subtlety, Esau the elder,
represents men who are worldly.
Jacob, one day with help from his Mother,
swindled the birth rite from Esau his brother,
The dissention it caused, continues to this day,
Affecting every nation, including the U.S.A.
DAVID AND GOLIATH
Most everyone knows about David and Goliath,
The contrast between them, not just physical,
But more importantly, spiritual.
Goliath, protected with armor from head to toe,
And young David with one smooth stone....
well the rest of the account...I'm sure you know.
JESUS AND JUDAS
In the Bible many contrast there are,
But of Jesus and Judas the greatest by far.
Judas the greedy betrayer of Jesus, For a few pieces of silver,
Betrayed his greatest friend,
Who loved him to his end
