"Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

Genesis 28 - 36. Have already followed the course of the Book of Genesis to the close of chapter 27. From that chapter to chapter 36, Jacob is principal; and it is that portion which I now purpose to consider.
