In this shiur, we ask: What happened? After the prophecy Rivka received about the struggle of her two sons, and the fight over the birthright, what is the bottom line? Who ends up with the birthright or ascendancy? We see from  the continuing stories that  it is a bit confusing, and very unclear. Yaakov appears to walk away with everything at first - but is that the case? He is forced to flee, and when he returns to Canaan he seemingly grovels to Esav and possibly even "returns" the bracha. We look at different approaches to the text and to the different turns of events, and we also examine different approaches to the nature of prophecy. Is prophecy as strong as our own choices?
