Spoke 5
The Dew of Heaven
Genesis 27 Daniel
And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment,
and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the
LORD hath blessed: Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and
the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine: Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to
thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed
be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
Genesis 27.27
Blessings and the Dew of Heaven
The phrase the dew of heaven is found in seven verses of the Bible.
Two are from Genesis 27
and five are from Book 27, Daniel. We have this extraordinary KeyLink:
KeyLink: The Dew of Heaven | Genesis 27Daniel |
Using gnotation we can write this so that the relation between Genesis and the Bible is clear -
that is, so that we can see Genesis and the Bible linked at Point P(27):
| KeyLink: The Dew of Heaven | PGenesis( 27 ) PBible( 27 ) |
Genesis 27 also links to the great theme of God's Blessing - first given
on the Fifth Day of Creation - that
dominates Spoke 5. This further manifests in the two great patriarchal blessings being
given in Genesis 27 and Genesis 49. Using modnotation makes the link to Spoke 5
clear:
Thematic Link: The Patriarchal Blessing | PGenesis( 52 ) PGenesis( 53 ) |
This is discussed more in the Genesis 49 - Ephesians article.
Service and Dominion
The importance of the birthright that Esau despised, and the blessing he lost, is seen with great clarity
in the words Isaac spoke over his son Jacob, giving him complete dominion over all his brethren. When
Esau wept and begged his father for a blessing, any blessing, he received these words (Genesis 27.39f):
And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be
the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; And by thy sword shalt
thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou
shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
Searching the entire KJV for all verses containing the set (dominion, serve) yields but two other verses,
both from Daniel (Book 27):
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that
all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion
is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall
not be destroyed. [Daniel 7.14]
And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom
under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose
kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
[Daniel 7.27]
We have therefore another KeyLink betweeen Genesis 27 and Daniel:
| KeyLink: Service and Dominion | PGenesis( 27 ) PBible( 27 ) |
Jacob's actions caused his brother to hate him (Genesis 27.41):
And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him:
and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand;
then will I slay my brother Jacob.
When Rachel new the intent of Esau's heart, she spoke to Jacob saying (Genesis 27.43):
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee thou to Laban
my brother to Haran; And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away;
This yields another KeyLink to Daniel (vs. 9.16):
O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger
and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our
sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a
reproach to all that are about us.
This yields a third KeyLink between Genesis 27 and the Book of Daniel:
KeyLink: Fury turned away | Genesis 27Daniel |
This then also links the chapter sequence of Genesis to that of Isaiah. In both Genesis and Isaiah,
the word "fury" first appears in chapter 27, as listed along with many others in
Correlated Debuts in Genesis and Isaiah.
