The Bible Collection: Jacob

Jacob's life - how he usurped his brother Esau's birthright and blessing, his courtship of Rachel and the deception of Rachel's father on their wedding night, the pillow of stone, the ladder to heaven, wrestling with God - are set against the heartache and hope of his relationship with the woman he seems destined never to possess. Sustained by his faith in God and his love for Rachel, Jacob perseveres...and becomes the father of the twelve tribes of Israel. (Cast: Matthew Modine, Lara Flynn Boyle, Sean Bean)
