    French Final1: Throughout the Bible, many fraternal relationships attract the reader's attention, mainly fraternities. In the story of Jacob and Esau as well as Cain and Abel, the birthright of the eldest son causes conflict. The theme of jealousy-induced actions appears in both of these stories. In the case of Jacob and Esau, Esau, the firstborn, must follow the tradition that the older brother gets the birthright. However, when “his brother came out, his hand grasping Esau’s heel; therefore he was named Jacob” Genesis 25:26. A conflict arose, the fact that Jacob's birth included the attempt to bring Esau back into the womb reflects Yahweh's view on blessing the firstborn in stone. Jacob ends up with the blessing after Rebekah tricks her husband into blessing Jacob. In the story of Cain and Abel, Abel is upset that Yahweh accepts Cain's offering and not his own and kills his brother. Cain, like Esau being the firstborn, causes conflict between siblings. These two stories teach what happens when jealousy influences two people. Jacob becomes jealous of Esau's birthright and so he deceives his blind father. Cain becomes jealous of Yahweh's favor towards Abel and Cain murders Abel. In the Bible, Yahweh looks down on humans acting under the control of these evil emotions. This contrasts the rules for the people and the rules of Yahweh for himself. This shows that only Yahweh, when consumed by evil emotions like rage, jealousy or anger, rightly kills people, this causes much debate among readers.2A: In the Bible and in the Odyssey, the Gods make it clear that they must rest above humans forever. In Exodus 9:16, Yahweh says, “But for this purpose I have raised you up, to show you my power, that my name may be… in the middle of a paper… as another example of being.” given a task that, in the eyes of Yahweh, the person does not seem well enough accomplished, this time losing the reward of the promised land. The only way to succeed in the Bible is to please Yahweh. It seems difficult to understand why Yahweh chose not to let Moses enter the promised land after Moses had completed all the tasks Yahweh asked of him. An example being 7:1-5. God said to Moses, “Look at me. I will make you a god to Pharaoh and your brother Aaron will be your prophet. Whatever I command you, you will say, and your brother Aaron will tell Pharaoh. Then he will free the Israelites from his country. 7:10 “Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did as God had commanded. » Nevertheless, in some ways Moses failed to accomplish his task well enough and so readers need not look to Moses as an example of success in the Bible..
