Disciples’ Literal New Testament
10 And not only this, but there is also Rebekah having bed[a] from one man, Isaac our father. 11 For the twins having not yet been born nor having done anything good or bad— in order that the purpose[b] of God according to His choosing[c] might continue[d], 12 not of works but of the One calling— it was said to her [in Gen 25:23] that “the older will serve the younger”.
