520 _aA story as timeless as the bible itself. Colleen Dewhurst stars as Rebekah, mother of twins Esau and Jacob, in the classic story of two brothers who turn against one another out of selfish greed. Through Esau is the first-born and entitled to his family's fortune, Jacob is Rebekah's favorite. Through a cunning and devious scheme, Rebekah helps steal Esau's birthright from his aging father, Isaac. The deception tears the family apart for twenty years, but just as reconciliation brings Jacob and Esau together, a new generation of envy is born. Jacob's sons, who envy their brother Joseph, sell him as a slave to passing caravan. Joseph is taken in chains to Egypt, but he astonishes all with his talents and becomes the Pharaoh's chief advisor. But Joseph cannot forget his family, and his forgiveness of their cruelty is a lesson in morality that live forever.
