✦ MADE SIMPLE
The descendants of Jacob will become like fire, and Joseph's people like flames. Esau's family line will be like dry grass — and when that fire hits, it's going to burn everything up. Nothing will be left of Esau's house because the LORD has said this is how it's going down.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
When God says judgment is coming, it's not a threat — it's a promise.
