thank you both so much for your help! Unfortunetly the institue manual didn't really have the info I was looking for.
Volgadon: Thank you very much for taking the time to write all that! I feel so thrilled to be able to read from someone who is living in Israel. Are you a Latter-day Saint yourself? I'm enjoying my study of the OT so much its making me want to visit Israel.
I have another question! Why was Judah blessed so well, when he wasn't any more righteous than some of his brothers? Concidering the whole incident with his daughter-in-law....
How about Levi? I mean, if God was so displeased with Levi, why did He eventually bless Levi with the opportunity to bare the priesthood exclusively? Was it because of a righteous descendant (like Aaron?)
