From the womb, Jacob was already reaching — grasping his twin brother's heel, refusing to arrive second without a fight. Yet a man who spends his life taking what belongs to others will one day find himself on the receiving end of the same.
Jacob: The Man on the Ladder retells the turbulent life of one of the Bible's most human figures — the deceiver who became Israel. Told in Jacob's own voice from the twilight of his years, this novel follows him from the stolen blessing that drove him into exile, through twenty years of labor and longing in a foreign land, to the terrifying midnight wrestling match at the Jabbok River that broke him open and gave him a new name.
This is not a story of a saint. It is a story of a man who lied to his father, fled from his brother, was deceived by the man he trusted, and loved a woman so fiercely that fourteen years felt like days. It is a story about what the universe does to those who grab and scheme — and what God does with them anyway.
